As shown in the firs seconds of footage, the gimbal drops from its position while the drone starts moving forward (the gimbal was at 0 degrees, as I remember, when the flight/filming started).
This one was my only incident. I filmed a videos after this, on the same day without any issues, but I wonder what could have caused (hardware/software) the gimbal to drop in this case.
Flight was at about 2575 m (8440 ft) above sea level (if that matters), shooting some footage of a glaciers for scientific purposes. This is the highest altitude I have ever flown a drone, btw.

Here is the flight log - DJI Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com

I think I found the cause in the flight log



Here, from 5 min 15.5 sec to 5 min 16.5 sec, the log shows that the gimbal pitch reached its limit. This happened a few seconds into the video recording, when the gimbal dropped. I was flying full speed backwards before this, and almost immediately full speed forward in N mode when the recording started.



The wind shouldn't be an issue, according to the log, but I wonder what the source of this weather data is?
