I'm a brand new Osmo owner, and I'm familiarizing myself with the camera.  When I power up the unit, it makes a soft noise that sounds a bit like the fan in a laptop computer, or like muted static--white noise.  I didn't notice the sound the first couple of times I turned the camera on, but I was focused on the controls at that point and could have missed it. I'm guessing it's the gimbal motors making that sound, but I'm looking for confirmation of that assumption.

Here's my question: Is this noise normal? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, there is a fan in the back of the camera to cool it down, this probably the noise you can hear. This fan can be turned on and of in your settings.
The gimble shouldn't make any noise.

Please try to ''mute fan'' during recording, if there is no any improvement, please upload a short video, we will see if it is normal.
