Gimbal reset mid-flight. I've had that happen when I was wearing the goggles. Really nauseating. Just keep calm an watch the telemetry. If it's not being erratic, then the aircraft is still stable.

I've had the opposite with my P3 on a windy day.
Got two alerts:
Prop loose
Motor obstruction

Had me worried or a few seconds until I realized I was getting a perfectly stable video feed. Must have been an updraft.
 
I had a similar issue, but my drone stopped responding to joystick inputs, spun wildly while the gimbal flicked around, and the drone descended into the ocean. Dji replaced it after analysing the flight records.

I never found out the cause. I was taking a panorama at the time it happened. I hope you can get some answers, it’s a terrible feeling

I can't explain why but it happens. must be some sort of bug or little quirk. i learned to ignore it and keep an eye on the time left before it starts a new file. For me recording at 1080P 50 fps it happens mostly around 11 - 13 minutes of recording.
