Now we need to get you some help. I know nothing about a P4.

I just realized this post is in General and Photo, you would get better attention in a P4 Section.

Let me see what I can do...

Just bobbing like a bobble head ?
Poltigist ,wow not seen that style of dance before,,all I can suggest after watching is unplug main ribbon that powers cam and rety connecting it,my heads moving like that trying to think,,hard to set my mind on a fix for this,I can see this be trail and error on what goes on,,start by unplugging and reconnecting carefully or ribbon damage occur...sorry was writing ,did not notice the move

Unplug the ribbon at the back of camera or in the back of the gimble?
I would think the camera end, the cable may have pulled loose (out of the connector), not all wires are making contact.

I pulled the camera apart and checked ribbons they all seemed to be in and all the clips were locked still bouncing
