So, I got the "Gimbal overload" error, and I discovered that the error comes from the pitch motor of the gimbal.
Seems it shorts, cause the ribbon cable burns.
I replaced the ribbon cable but it burnt again.
So, replaced the gimbal motor assembly and it works again...
Hope this could be of help for those who have the same problem.

I made the repair. So, first ribbon was € 18,00 then € 40,00 the gimbal motor assembly from eBay

You have to be very very skilled before opening and putting hands on the Mavic...

It is not recommended to repair the drone by yourself since it may void the warranty. To ensure the performance and safety, we always recommend the users send the drone in and get the drone repaired by DJI engineers.

I would recommend you send the drone in for diagnosis and repair if it is damaged. The drone needs to be evaluated after it arrives, it will be covered by warranty if it's product malfunction and within the warranty period.

Of course...but if DJI repair service has very loooooong times to fix a drone, I do by myself...
