Any one else have a z3? Any luck with getting past gimbal motor overloaded error when calibrating. I haven't flown it yet because it won't pass this step. Any tips? I don't know how to force a firmware update, but it will not take the update. So... it's brand new, but unused at this point.
Firmware update beyond pre-release scheduled? even on the drawing board?

The Z3 still needs a lot of work OP - a number of owners are patiently waiting their turn for some attention from DJI's engineers for a number of long-awaited fixes.
No word from the DJI reps here on progress, sorry!

I m still having issues even with the one they sent back to me, however it is functioning a lot better than before. This was filmed in 2.7K, I seem to have little to no issues when I use it.  4K transmission is horrible, still...breaks up a lot...

Good to hear your experience is improving BIGDZ - hopefully it's all sorted out soon.
A lot of people ready to upgrade their X3's for this.

Glad to hear you are doing better!!  I was wondering if you are shooting video in manual HD mode and finding a clear channel??

I was out today and had to change channels but it has been working great for me once I switched to manual mode..

Have you tried to cool down the aircraft and do the calibration again?
If the error persists, I'd suggest you to contact our tech support at support.us@dji.com and send it in for further evaluation.
