Hello,

Several times while recording simple shots, an issue with gimbal stabilization occurs. The gimbal makes a single or multiple sudden movements and then stabilizes the image correctly. The drone had its main board and camera module replaced (a complete set from another working drone, everything is paired). There are no issues with gimbal calibration, and I have updated the firmware. No error codes are displayed. Attached are video recordings showing the issue. I was flying in "Cinema" mode, but this problem also occurs in other modes. Has anyone experienced a similar issue?

This really looks like the gimbal is hitting the mechanical end point as it seems to happen when you let off the stick & the drone brakes.

So depending on flight mode & wind resistance this could be the reason... compare below drone tilt & gimbal range out from the user manual.

Try to look into the flight log & read off the used tilt angle when the gimbal moves, if the drone tilt are over 35 degrees when the gimbal jerks... it's the mechanical end point.

This was my initial thought as well. I've had this happen in strong winds when I owned my Mavic Mini.
