Hi all.
I have a newly purchased DJI Phantom Vision 2+ v3.0 with the latest firmware.
The second time I turned it on, I forgot to remove the gimbal clamp and left it on for approximately 5-6 minutes before the Phantom itself started producing a noise that sounded like a high frequency audible alarm.
I have 5 questions and I am wondering if anyone can help in answering them
1) I am wondering if the bird itself has such an audible alarm feature on it to remind users that they should remove the gimbal guard or whether this sound was the gimbal servos being tortured?
2) This happened just once and the gimbal seems to be working OK since but I am wondering whether such an incident has damaged the gimbal.
3) Are you aware of any safety features on the gimbal mechanism or the bird's control unit to detect that something is impeding the gimbal's motion and prevent further attempts to move it in order to save it from being damaged?
4) If I turn the bird on and lift it up by hand, the gimbal tries to remain stable and does so well. If however I turn the bird sideways or up or down to the point where the gimbal can no longer remain on the horizon, it seems to turn itself off. Is that normal? It comes back on soon as I re-establish an angle that it can cope with.
5) When I turn the bird on, the gimbal stabilises itself and within a second or two after it does that, it flicks once (by flick I mean, a sudden tiny shake or small movement). It does that always once, right after the first stabilisation when turned on. Is this normal? Do your gimbals do that too?
Sorry for the many questions but I haven't been able to find answers to these exact points and it would be nice to get that information from someone.
Best of luck with your flights!
p.s. "Remove before flight" ribbon is in the post ;-) |
