Hi all, this is a known issue about the gimbal noise and our engineers are working on it. And now we would like to release a beta firmware to your DJI account to update for this case. Could you leave me your account address? Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you in advance.

Thor, I too an experiencing this gimbal buzz when my P4P + is setting still. I just updated to the latest firmware as recommended to see if it would allow my to use the head tracking on my new DJI goggles. Not sure what to do I want the gimbal noise to stop but also want to use head tracking in the goggles. Also when flying anything bright colored (the sun, silver metal building etc) shows on my monitors as white and black stripped lines, why is that? when playing back the video on my IMAC the lines don't appear in the recording only on the controller screen. Please Help. Note: my Gimbal calabration also freezes at 50%.

Hi all, the beta is now available to accounts provided above, please check and let me know if you haven't received it. Thanks a lot.

Thor,
The beta firmware will not update the p4p. DJI assistant 2 says it's updating, but the progress bar stays at 0%. Tried the beta downgrade and the same result. Tried resetting to factory defaults then the firmware. Same result, will not go past 0%. What's the fix?

Hi, the beta is now available to your account, and for the black and white line, it sounds like the over-exposure warning, you can try to disable it on the app.

Is there an error code on the DJI Assistant 2? Or it just stays at 0%? Please try to reinstall the Assitant 2 and upgrade again. And you can also check if you can access the beta on the DJI GO app.

It does not give any error code. I have downloaded and installed DJI Assistant on another computer and still it stays at 0%. I tried to refresh the current firmware and that stays at 0%. I turned off windows firewall and still get the same result except windows keeps telling me the firewall is off.

Thank you, the firmware fixed the issue. I did an online chat with DJI and they said they never heard of this problem. I sent him the link to the forum where everyone says they have this problem and his solution was for me to send the unit to DJI repair. WTF?

Good to hear that you had upgraded it in the end, and for the online chat, sorry for the misleading. I will forward this case to the designated team, they will help to train the support, it would be nice if you could provide me with your email account that you used for contacting the support. And also, thank you for your feedback.

Thank you so much! No noise anymore, calibration run perfectly. End of a long nightmare!

I hope the gimbal will not shake anymore like in my last 2 flights... I will give a try later this week.

Kind regards, Rodrigo

I got exactly the same problem, p4p+ noisy and the gimbal vibrates a lot and is noisy also, please send me the firmware to fix this. To milton.perez.al@gmail.com

I'm really upset, I still have the problem, my p4p+ was not like that, since I updated the firmware, the vibration and heating problems started, now I'm afraid of flying the drone, updated to the beta version and every time I tilt, the gimbal vibrates and is heat like hell, I bet that the result will be a mess. DJI, you should be more serious with your customers, I have invested almost 2000 dollars in this kit and I have problems, micro vibrations before and now this, so annoying, this is lack of consideration to us and please dont tell me "send the unit" cause i live in Peru, South America.

Hey there - I’m having a similar issue with brand new p4 advanced +. Gimbal calibration stuck at 50% and some gimbal wobble when hovering (less noticeable when moving). Could the beta be pushed to my account? jonathansteingard@gmail.com.

Will it appear as an available update on my controller? Or do I need to get dji assistant app? I’m not familiar with that app.

Thanks again for the support!

Hi, when you log in the same account on the RC's screen, the beta should exist. If you have a PC with you, you can also update it via DJI Assistant 2.

Could you please provide me with a video of the status of your drone? And is there a hard landing or crash to the drone before? BTW, please also make a screenshot of the version info on the app, here is the route: power on the drone, RC and app, enter device, general settings, about. Looking forward to your update.

Hi, the beta update worked and the calibration of the gimbal completed without buzzing sounds. But the gimbal is not centered correctly. It's slightly off to the left. The gimbal tries to center, but then turns slowly to the left. It's my first drone and brandnew so I don't really know what to do. Any ideas? I did the calibration multiple times, same result.
