I've been searching the internet for weeks now but found no solution or any cases of my exact problem. I would like to know if any of you have experienced this and how you solved it.
After having my Mavic stored for 3 months I tried to fly it for the first time but noticed the feed was shaky AF. Landed and discovered the gimbal was completely dead. Tried restarting the drone several times with no luck. Never crashed the drone or hit it with anything while stored. Gimbal was always protected with the plastic clamp.
The thing is that the gimbal initializes correctly every time and it's not after the initial sound that it goes limp:
Gimbal Failure
Other times the gimbal works just fine for most of the flight, then after 10 mins of flying it dies. For instance, this video was taken 5 minutes after the previous one:
Gimbal works fine
No errors on the App, Gimbal Status on the app is "Normal", gimbal calibration doesn't work when it fails but does when it has power and calibrates correctly.
I'm really pissed that this happened barely 3 months after my warranty expired, should have flown it more. I'm looking for options before sending it to service, I am good with electronics so if there is a replacement part that someone can assure would solve the problem I'm down to do it myself.
Have you guys seen this problem before?
