This one really has me stumped.
I took my phantom 4 pro out for a little flight on saturday. clear skies and 50 degrees.
I notices when my camera was facing ahead or slightly down, I had some jello to the video.
camera straight down was rock steady.
i checked all the usual. props were okay (even tried 2 other sets) nothing on gimbal. gimbal moved freely, etc.
then yesterday, i tried another flight, and same deal.
I tried to calibrate the gimabal, and no matter what i did, the calibration would stop at 50%. I followed some of the posts here about reloading software, etc, no dice.
I sometime came up with a "gimbal overload", but then would dissapear, and start again.
Then i noticed after restarting the phantom, the gimbal would kick sideways about 8 seconds into initializing, and then the gimbal would start drifting slightly mostly left and right, but a little up and down, like it was searching for something.
I calibrated emu as stated in some of the posts both ways (through pc software, and sitting on side, upside down, etc), and still no dice.
Then! sometime i could get the gimbal to calibrate, but the gimbal would not move during the calibration, and when finished, the gimbal would lock itself all the way to the right.
NOW im getting no transmission from the camera to the ipad.
I swapped the camera from one of my other P4P's, and the problem followed the camera, not the drone.
Has anyone ever had this cascading problem?
if you repaired it yourself, which board did the trick?
