I replaced arms with motors on the Mavic 2 pro.
I have a motor tester where I can plug tge motors directly in plus tge main ESC ribbon at the head with the top borad.
I can then move the arms and watch the lights cycle, on off, in both directions.
I completed the work and the python calibration stops at 60 in Hall and ends with the camera facing all the way to one side in Coarse.
My thinking is do the ribbons on the motors need to position in the centers using the tester and lights as found on a good example when centered?
I ask because when the coarse is running full deflection but then trys to move further instead of reversing. What then happens is the sign of overload and the gimbal gies limp.
I can flick it and it is clearly not powered in any axis.
I tried on special step. When the gimbal finished, after a bunch of tries and looked centered, I quit and left the drone on. Launched Dji Assistant 2, and refreshed the firmware. When the drone restarted automatically it when fine. All centered. I thought wow, I have a solution.
But…… disconnecting and restart, no joy. The camera went back to askew in the roll axis. Subsequent starts when not limp, it is askew.
My one criticism of the tester It doesn’t show yaw data with the long ESC plugged in. Even though under the board the Yaw connector is connected.
I know this is a complicated post. But for the members who dive in to the gimbal, certain tweaks are shared as is certain frustrations.
