So I had to remove some sand from my motors which required me to take apart my phantom. I put all the wires back in place, I get no errors etc, but whenever I startup my phantom the gimbal just swings up and down forever. Like it's trying to calibrate but cannot. I tried manually tilting the camera through the gimbal wheel, I tried restarting the drone multiple times, I tried calibrating the camera through the app but nothing gets it to stop tilting all the way up and all the way down. This has happened before and what I usually do is just power cycle the phantom but nothing still has seemed to work.


Edit: Just lightly touching the gimbal while it was tilting up and down got it back to normal. I was testing to see how much resistance there was and there was little no resistance for a second and then it snapped back to how it should be functioning. Weird but im not complaining.

Do a search and you will find all the info you need on this subject.

You would want to double check the physical connections, especially the ribbon cable, to ensure that they are secure and inserted in the proper directions?
