    Camera system resets mid-flight...?

    In the instance seen in that video I posted, I maintained full control of the Mavic via the RC. The camera freaking out was the only indication that something had gone awry. Furthermore, there were no warnings or errors reported in my flight logs. Whether this is considered a gimbal "reset" or...
