I am a retired mechanical / electrical engineer and work for a charitable organization that does pack-ups of the left-overs from estate sales for sale in our Thrift Store. I recently acquired several "partial" DJI Phantom 3 Standards from a sale, thinking that I could reassemble the carcasses into a working unit since I own and operate six other drones. After cobbling together two of the units and replacing all of the critical parts (along with a new battery and charger), I powered up the unit and everything seemed to link up and work fine except for the fact that the gimbal was continuing to stroke back and forth on all three axes and wouldn't settle into a final position. The interesting thing was that the camera was following all these motions and the drone indicated that it was safe to fly. Even sitting stationary the gimbal action drained the battery fairly quickly.
Anyone have any idea what is going on with this device and how to possibly remedy it?
