A minor crash last week and I even had the clear cover over the camera.

I started up the drone yesterday and the camera was very wobbly, and I couldn't adjust it up or down. It then gave me the error saying the gimbal motor overload.

Took a look at the camera and it looks like it's crooked and the top right corner of the camera is actually hitting the vibration board.

Any ideas on how to fix?20200414_120959.jpg

Okay so I crashed my MP as well, and my cam was touching the vibration board also. Turned out I had broken one of the corners that are connected to the suspending rubber bands. Bought a new board and it worked fine after that.

Now, for the over load message, your gimbal control ribbon cable might be screwed up from the crash, judging from the fact that you can't control it at all and that it's not stable. You can get both of these components on Amazon; the vibration board is about $16 and I'm not sure on the ribbon cable.

Hope this helps!
