Gimbal motor overload problem

[pinzmann]

So my Air 2s is getting the overload message lately as in 100% of the time. I have worked the gimbal in all the motions, very smooth no gritty feeling, no blockage. When flying it the gimbal seems to operate fine, maybe a bit jittery hard to tell as I haven’t flew it for quite a while. Tried to do a calibration but never got past 10%. No care refresh. Probably doesn’t matter as DJI doesn’t have any repair parts anyway. Am I SOL?

NO your not SOL. Have you tried to re-calibrate the IMU and then the gimbal? Is the video you take jittery or strange?

They can still repair it though. They will charge for whatever is wrong and ship you back a refurb. Worth doing asap.

No, I didn’t do the IMU. Will try that tomorrow. Thanks. The video is only slightly jittery when I’m yawing.

Can you identify which motor is faulty in gimbal .
You can replace half gimbal (aftermarket) also

Unfortunately right now DJI is saying 60-90 day turnaround for any repairs. Local Authorized DJI repair centers can’t get parts because they can only use brand new parts from DJI which apparently are all being held up at customs?. There are some aftermarket parts sellers on Amazon for signal cables, which is most likely your problem. Other sources can be found on Ali Express but some of those sellers claim the parts are good and tested while I’ve gotten plenty of bad parts there. Seller Yxxy is a pretty reliable. www.djioemparts.com I have had good experience with their parts. Find a local drone repair guy like me who isn’t a certified DJI repair center to help you out.
