Ok so I have installed a new camera (used from parts bin) and when it starts up, the gimbal yaws left and you can hear it wanting to go further. So I took it a part and the gimbal actually swings about another 20 degrees to the left. Once in this position, it tracks fine, movements are smooth, video is 100%, etc.

Everywhere ive researched talked about the set screw not being on the flat surface of the shaft, which is right where it was at. Knowing I can spin the shaft on the roll axis motor, I tried doing the same thing with the yaw axis but continues to spin to the same location. Id say it starts at 02:30 looking at the front.... Ideas?

DJI cameras seem to be quite buggy. I'm working on my second starting to malfunction not very happy to spend $200 for something so fragile
