Hi, I have a P4 Pro with exactly the same issue, firmware is updated, need to send it for repair or can be fixed with special firmware/calibration? Regards.

Hi, if the issue persists when your drone is updated to the latest firmware V 01.05.0300, you might need to send it in for repair. Please contact our support to start the case. http://www.dji.com/support

HI All,

I'm having the exact same issue with my Phantom Pro 4 Plus, it fails a gimbal calibration at 50% and makes a buzzing noise and drifts to the left. Is this a software thing that I can fix via a different firmware?

Hi, just to verify, have you updated the firmware to the latest version V 01.05.0300? If the gimbal issue persists, you might need to send the drone in. And for the drone drifts, try to calibrate the IMU and change the props. And please help to confirm if the drone crashes before, send the drone in if it has impact damage to the drone. http://www.dji.com/support

Hello All, I guess I am not alone in this. Went to take my Phantom 4 Advanced out today and it was doing the same thing, annoying buzzing in the gimbal. Of course, like everyone else if you touch it, it stops, let go it goes back to buzzing and after a few minutes it gets warm. I hear the beta seems to help fix this but I can't find it nor can I see it on the Assistant 2 Software. Can someone help me on this. I can provide a video and images if needed.

Hello all
I have a phantom 4 pro that when you start the A/C the gimble stays straight and true . As soon as A/C is moved the gimble turns and starts to oscillate left and right, and the gimble calibration stops at 50% and the gimble gets hot. This started after the last update.

I hope the Beta Version can fix my problems. Could you please sent me the file to my account
langsh@comcast.net

Versions
A/C 01.05.0300
Controller 01.04.01.00
precise fly 01.00.01.09
Basic fly 01.00.01.07

Thanks for your help,
Shawn

Sorry for the late reply and the difficulties. However, this beta is for Phantom 4 Adv now. If you are using the Phantom 4, and you had tried calibrating the gimbal and refresh the firmware, I suggest sending the drone in for diagnose.

Hi Dji Thor,

I have the same problem with my Dji Phantom 4, the gimbal is making a strange vibrating noise. The noise was there from when I bought it, but now it is affecting the video I am filming too. I have the latest firmware upgrade. Do I need the beta firmware? If yes my email is mark.formosa90@gmail.com.

I just received a new Phantom 4 Pro today and been setting things up. I updated firmware to V 01.05.0600 and associated databases. I also decided to do a gimbal calibration and it seemed to hang on 50%. I turned off the aircraft and controller and Go 4 App (V4.2.16). Restarted everything in proper sequence and attempted to calibrate the gimbal once again. This time it worked. I did NOT hear any noise when it hung at 50% the first time. This may not help those experiencing a problem as mentioned above however it does not seem to be a firmware problem.

I will be wrapping it in bubble wrap and launching my first test flight tomorrow.
