Hi,

I have some sort of gimbal glitch with my Phantom 4 Pro.
Usualy, every flight my gimbal will have a tiny split second repositioning movement, as if it was correcting position. Very small movement but still it ruins my shots since that sudden change is very noticable.

I have mine examples but i found a video with same symptoms as mine (first two examples in video) so no need to upload:


Has anyone expirienced this issue?

My drone never had a crash.
I did all calibrations and problem is still there

My guess is a loose connection to the roll motor or the motor all together.

Firmware was updated long before, and i have reflashed it 2 times on a PC to try and fix it, but didn´t solved it.  Not sure if i can know what happened  before this started, but i think it was present before, but not in this amount, now in every 3-5 min i get one glitch.

Firmware version: 01.04.01.00

I get this glitch also each time when drone is powering on as you can see on this video (happens twice in a row each time gimbal is initialised)
Here is the video of if:


Also, if i press rapidly button for 90 degree gimbal rotation (front/down look), it will go beyond its safe zone, looking behind it (rotated not 90 but 110 degrees down) or looking at propellers. I`m just saying this since i think this could be some sort of calibration/software issue for these glitches.

Did a factory reset, downgraded to v01.05.0300, and issue is still present....
From what i see and get info i'm not the only one, a lot of users are complaining on this.

For me, this looks like software issue with gimbal itself. Anyone from DJI to help?

I bought the P4P+ from a friend, so I know it was never crashed. I even rolled back to factory specs, and even started the pro without turning on the controller. Mine initialises, then about 5 seconds later, the camera jerk up slightly and to the right. As it returns to center, the camera pitches down, and recovers slightly. The camera NEVER returns to level. Please please please DJI, tell us what to fix. I own a P4P, and Osmo and an Osmo mobile, and now this freaked out P4P+. This is not a good look for DJI at all. Here are 2 YouTube videos of what my phantom is doing.

I will fix it myself, if I knew what the issue was.
