Mavic problems

[Cschoumacher]

So today I tried to film a football game and my drone kept gaining altitude all by itself, them it would start descending by itself. I finally got pissed and took it home. Get home and it flys perfect except my gimbal was going crazy and saying motor overload. A little help here guys.

The gaining altitude can happen from wind, dirty downward sensor or from not having enough satellites in view, but the only time I've seen gimbal motor overload is when I've forgotten to remove the clamp.

Are you running 900 firmware? That's a problem firmware! I went back to 700 and it's working 100% great for me!

Let us know!
Best regards,

I figured it was a bad cable to the gimbal so my drone is in pieces awaiting a new cable
