Gimbal vibrates but footage is fine

[Willworth]

Good evening. I just joined this forum, nice to meet you all.

I recently bought a Mini 5 pro from Amazon. Everything is good: it flies wonderfully, lots of range, and the footage is great. However, when I look at the gimbal while it is hovering near me, the entire gimbal cage appears to be vibrating. I have tried to see if it was the obstacle avoidance, but I was unable to determine the cause. As I said, this has no effect at all on the recorded footage or the controller view.

My question: Is this normal. Are there any other mini 5 pilots in NE Ohio who could meet up with me to compare drone behavior?

Note: I tried to download a video but no luck.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I have thought about this overnight and decided to send the drone back. The vibration and movement is just too odd. I have had a Spark, Mini 2, Avata 2 and Neo; none has ever exhibited this trait. The one in question was from Adorama through Amazon, so I will call Adorama and see if they can do a swap. Otherwise I will just go through the Amazon refund procedure and order another. Thanks again.

Did you examine the gimbal to make sure all the Dampers were in place?

I did and it looked ok. FYI, I just ordered another through Adorama, who was the original supplier on the defective one. Taking the defective one to UPS tomorrow.
