About 3 weeks ago I hand launched my M3P just over 10,000' alt. It started the motors and flew up about a foot our of my hand and then crashed into the ground. After this I changed the props. I have calibrated everything. It seems to fly fine but I am getting a Gimble Overload at take off every time. Can/should I send this into DJI care? Thoughts/suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Can/should I send this into DJI care?
YES
Take your finger and slowly and carefully "roll" the gimble around ..Feel any resistance or "grit"?
If so the gimbal is damaged or has debris in it. You can blow a little air into it and try that It may clear an obstruction. BUT the Drone hit the Ground so I would think you have Damage. Send it in.
If you wanna try the air thing DO NOT use a can of air!
