Whilst sat on a DJI car mount, I've noticed a small but continuous drift from left to right with the Gimbal.

Latest firmware installed, has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks

I did some 50 min TimeLapse recording on Tripod (with Dec 25th FW) and was happy to see no gimbal drift anymore. Had it before with the November FW.

Did you calibrate the gimbal on an even floor without any movement?
Please try to re-calibrate and try again.

Curious to know whats going on on that topic...

After firmware update, I reset and calibrated gimbal, put the Osmo on a tripod and recorded for 40 minutes without any drift.

Hi, please make sure you've installed the latest 1.4.1.80 firmware. Also, try to restart the gimbal and do the gimbal auto calibration multiple times.

Hi Dan..

Yes, it was solved by returning a faulty camera head, the unit developed a lot of play and was seriously rattling around.
