Not fully sure what is going on. When I power on my Mavic the gimbal seems to do the correct self calibration at start up like it has been doing since my dad gave it to me. I have replaced the gimbal vibration plate after a crash, but have had to issues, then crashed a second time and had to put the rubber mounts back into the vibration plate (2 of them popped out). Now again, when I do the start up, the self check gimbal calibration works no problem, see the linked video, but I've decided to do a complete calibration of the drone itself, including IMU and the compass, along with the gimbal. I get to 68% percent and then it fails.

The flex cable seems to be ok. I get no errors during the calibration just a failure.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be great. I can fly and the gimbal seems to function correctly, but maybe I'm just seeing any issues myself.
