Hi guys,

I hadn't flown my P3A for quite some time, and last weekend decided to take it out for a spin. When I did this, I noticed my live feed was very delayed.
I researched how to fix this, and I found that if I took the whole camera/gimbal off the drone, disconnecting the 2 wires, and then connecting them back again, it should fix my issue.

I did this, and it seems to have worked, my live feed is back to normal. BUT when i go into the aircraft status in the DJI GO app, at the bottom, the Gimbal Status says 'Disconnected'.
I don't know if this was an issue before disconnecting the camera/gimbal or if it happened when I did the fix, but I can't get it to go away.

Everything seems to work, the gimbal is in the usual position, all lights are green, there are no warning messages, when I fly the drone the camera works just as normal and I can move the camera up and down as usual. I can even calibrate the gimbal, but the gimbal status still says Disconnected...

Any help on the matter? Should I be worried, should I just fly it regardless?

Thanks.

Here is a link on the Phantom Pilots Forum with same same issue.

Looks like it is a software bug. I have the same message, but the drone flies normal and everything else is ok.

We are aware of this issue, this is a false warning, the engineers are working on it now, will fix it in the next update.

My P3A says the same, "Gimbal Status Disconnected". Other than that message, everything appears to function normally.

The current DJI GO 3.1.23 has corrected the "gimbal status disconnected" error message.
