Wobble/shake

[TyWebb]

Hello. New to drones and have a P3P that I’ve flown about 10 times. I have a slight wobble shake in my videos. How can I figure out what is causing it? Thanks. https://youtu.be/uKkw2KrKv7A

I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary on that video

Hard to see but I see it when I look at the trees in the distance. Try this one. There was some wind on this day but I didn’t think a lot.

To me it looks like vibration of the drone is being transferred to the camera. Any crashes or did you add more than the 2 pins to the gimbal?

 

[TyWebb]

No crashes. I bought it new and haven’t done anything to it.

Is the fact that some videos are dead steady, some a little shaky, and some look like that second video indicative of anything?

I Think its called the "jello Effect" here......yes number 2 video sure shows it.
That's strange that it comes and go's.

How are the wind conditions on those flights? I've seen that if the winds come from the side, it makes the camera shaky.

It has been a while since this was a common problem, but to me it sort of looks like videos we’ve seen when people have not removed the small piece of foam from behind the gimbal.

It happened more than once per week back in the days when brand new P3’s were common. DJI shipped them with a piece of foam that some did not notice for a full year. Now most P3’s are bought used with the foam long removed.

Ding we have a winner! Thanks a lot, and thanks all.

There is something really wrong there. I’ve flown in 40k winds and thought the drone is really angled the footage is good.
This looks like a balance issue to me. I’d check all your props or maybe use your spares and give it a try. Good luck. J

Glad that I was able to steer you in the right direction and that it was something simple. Cheers!
