Hello everyone! im having an odd issue with my Zenmuse H3-2D gimbal. when starting the flight the gimbal works fantastic, during flights if i make any sharp turns with Yaw + a little Pitch it would most of the times get "knocked out" and sometimes regain control and balance itself. The gimbal also loses control after some roughly 6~7 minuets of air time (battery should last around double that time if i keep flying)

Here's a Vid of the issue happening mid flight, 1st time it would get its shit together, 2nd time its completely lost.

the Phantom firmware was just updated and the problem persists. i dont see the gimbal in the Naza-M software, dont know how to update its firmware

Update for the gimbal is a bit different.  Here's a link to the wiki:  http://wiki.dji.com/en/index.php/H3-2D-Firmware_%26_Software_Upgrade

what you observe is a result of the gimbal going to 'sleep' if it 'thinks' there is an obstruction. If you fly less aggressively, this won't happen. The new generation of gimbals are like 10 years more advanced....
