Hi Forum,

I purchased the spark rtf quad and have only flown it twice as I am just a beginner. Since getting the drone I havent been able to tilt the camera and in the aircraft status it says 'Gimbal gyroscope error' and also 'Hardware Malfunction. Contact DJI Support for repairs'. What does this mean and what am I supposed to do?

Thanks!

Please try to flash the firmware of spark through DJI Assistant 2. Did you crash your spark? Please check if there is any damage in the gimbal. If the problem remains, I would recommend you send it back: http://www.dji.com/support.

I just received my new Spark..., first fly and no Gimbal movement... The APP is telling me exactly the same: “ Gimbal Gyroscope error”, and “ Hardware Malfunction”.
Very frustrating experience...
I’m now charging the battery to try the firmware update, is it solved your problem?

Thank you.

I have the same problem. Unfortunately. Did you solve it? How can I flash the firmware using Assistant 2?

I have had my spark for two weeks in California and just flew 6000 miles to Chile to use my drone for a month of vacation and it doesn't work! I get a gimbal gyroscope error right as I take it out of the case and the compass won't calibrate due to magnetic interference.  How do you FLASH the firmware? Is there anything I can do to fix this error? I am in small villages and do not have the luxury of sending it in and waiting for repair as I am in a different village every day. My entire vacation was dedicated to the spark and it's footage and now it's a complete disaster.

I had the same problem like yours...but just everybody else who's got the problem exactly like we do pertaining to this " Gimbal Gyroscope Error, Hardware Malfunction..." I definitely have this notion that it was not really our fault and for obvious reason, this is DJI Fault, as clearly and without doubt, stating such a notification  that it was a "HARDWARE MALFUNCTION" and therefore considered as a matter of fact a "DJI COMPANY's LIABILITY" on contention that the malfunction is rooted as they, themselves say thru their notification, as a  Hardware's defect..hence a "Manufacturer's Defect" to say it quite bluntly. Added to this logical conclusion, is that , we are not Engineers much less I.T.s to have something to do with its malfunction. In Airplane's Disaster - it  not a Pilot's error, but rather an Engine failure...which we also can apply to this concerns. DJI Engineers have anticipated this to happen which is why they put it as a notification to that effect, programmed to popped-up at anytime when the time arises. I think, they need to fix this problem, by way of not necessarily retrieving the items claimed to have been defective like Automobiles & SUV's, but rather replace it or at least, repair it without repair fee and shipping charges as a gesture of apology for the anxiety and damages it costs us.
