Hello all,
Been a lurker for sometime and love the posts. Registered today since it's time.....Sorry ahead of time for the long post, I wanted to be thorough in an effort to help you help me.
As the title states, I've tried everything to get my gimbal to work on my Phantom 3 Adv. I flew it a few weeks ago in Houston and then drove back to Montana. Wanted to start it up today and found the gimbal freaking out, I did all the normal steps. I searched around here and wasn't able to find anything rock solid that would work for me. Learned a few cool things should something happen, but nothing has worked. Doesn't mean I didn't miss a thread.
1. Calibrated Gimbal - Didn't work
2. Cold calibrated IMU - Success
3. Calibrated Gimbal - Didn't work
4. Noticed they released a new firmware on 11/29/2016 - Update success
5. Calibrated gimbal - didn't work
6. Calibrated IMU - Success
7. Calibrated gimbal - didn't work
8. Calibrated R/C - Success
9. Calibrated gimbal - didn't work
10. Power cycled a number of times in between.
Pretty much nothing I've tried works. I've tightened a few screws that have caused gimbal problems before and solved due to posts here. Nothing has changed or happened since I last flew it in Houston, other than DJI updated their app and released a new firmware.
Any help? I've attached video of what the gimbal does when the Phantom starts up. This one was rather "mild", it normally goes side to side violently like it did at the very beginning for about a minute before it locks all the way to the right and facing backwards.
.
Note: during video I did not have controller hooked up to record the startup sequence.
