Hey guys im having an issue with my p4p.
It keeps coming up with a gimbal error stating it cannot recieve mc data.
Gimbal and main controler disconnected. Contact dji support if this persists after restart.
I have latest firmware.
During flight gimbal behaves unresponsive and very irratically.
I have tried restarting including changing battery nothing seems to help.
The drone has not been crashed or hard landed.

Sorry for your experience with our product, have you crashed the drone? How did this issue happen? If the drone didn't be crashed, please try to refresh the firmware via DJI Assistant 2 to see if it works.

Sorry that you are experiencing difficulties, since you have sent it to your dealer, I believe they will take care of it for you, hope the problem will get sorted out soon.
