I'm a new Mavic owner,  video is not working as it should, any ideas to correct the problem or help would be greatly appreciated.
  
This is a link to one of my videos.
  

  
I did checked the gimbal and it looks like the mount is correct.
  
  
Thanks for your help

Yah, that's not good.  Looks like some sort of motor or propeller imbalance.  Looks much worse than the normal jello effect people have seen.  Make sure your props are all securely fastened and don't have any cracks or pieces missing out of them.  Also I would suggest going onto YouTube and searching on "Jello Effect" and how to mitigate it.

Thanks for the advise,  I will check the props.
I will also recheck with another video I thought this was happening with the props turned off.
Thanks

My new out of the box Mavic had a similar but less pronounced video wobble from top to bottom. DJI have just assessed and diagnosed a fault with the camera/gimbal assembly.

If you want to save yourself a lot of headaches dealing with the terrible DJI support, I suggest you send the drone straight for refund. Not for repair. Get a refund, buy a new one. I wish I had done that. Good luck.

You could try a gimbal calibration but it certainly looks like it is defective. I would be contacting DJI support.

Thanks for the replies, I took the Mavic back to the store and had it replaced. It now works as it should.
Again Thanks
