Gimbal keeps going up & down

[oldpaulj]

Hi All
Todays question is when I fly the P4 Pro the gimbal keeps going up and down
I cant get this to stop
I have done a reset in case I have done something wrong in the settings not no change

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated

The machine itself is flying very well and I am very happy with my control of the machine

Thanks
Paulj

Do you mean the camera is tilting up and down? Or is the gimbal really moving?

Does this happen when your Phantom is on the ground? If so, please post a video so we can see it.

Sorry
Yes the camera keeps tilting up and down the full range of movement
I shall try to post a video today
Maybe I should do a complete reset on the machine?
Thanks

Did you try calibrating the remote controller in DJI GO?

Thanks
I'm currently re-calibrating the IMU and the camera has stopped
Calibration takes a long time

I have the same issue. Today I actually moved the gimbal with my hand and it stopped it. I don't know what to do. My drone is less than a week old.

I did a IMU re calibrate and that fixed the problem.
The info in the manual is not very clear
Watch the tutorial above as it shows the calibration method.
Once you get to steps 2 - 5 you need to move the drone as shown on the video.
Good luck
