I recently noticed that I get a lot of jello effect when flying with high shutter speeds. Is that an indication that my gimble has excessive vibration that is normally blurred out at lower shutter speeds, or should I just be happy if it looks fine at shutter speeds of 2x frame rate with an ND filter? I've flown with higher shutter speeds on the P4 and the P3P with no jello issues...
***EDIT***
Turns out that my gimble motors are vibrating my camera when the aircraft pitches forward slightly (camera pitches up). I didn't notice this before because it only seems to happen after a few minutes of warming up. Initially when holding my P4P in my hands and rotating it around its axis, there was no vibration or audible buzz except when the gimble would get near its physical limits at first... but after a few minutes, I noticed the buzz and could feel the vibration even when at relatively low attitude angles (especially used for forward flight)... Sending it back.
I think it would be a great resource if there was a quality control checklist one could use to check some of the less-obvious defects to look for on a brand new drone.
