Come on people, theres got to be someone with a Mavic Mini 2 that could answer this question. Does the gimbal tilt one way and not the other way when powered off?

Tanks you a lot. Man , I Be so Sorry. Like my title says. I don’t know everything.
Update: yes there was a problem, the gimbal pushed back a bit so the gimbal was hanging up. It only canted to the left looking at the camera straight on. So I pulled the gimbal forward slightly and it cants left and right. I did a gimbal calibration and a IMU Calibration And compass calibration. As far I It arms, and records. It is dark outdoors so tomorrow I will be finishing a complete drone evaluation. I noticed one thing which I don’t have a #3 when zooming pressing the number on screen. It’s there when zooming with the dial.

Well I havn’t got one yet so can’t say but sure someone with one will help you out ?
 
Well I guess nobody has one anymore or someone would have answered you. Think @Thomas B has one.
 
Could be a site problem on how it orders topics/threads. I've visited this site with the app several times in the last 23 hours and just now came across this topic, and even then it was quite deep.

Gimbal should be completely free to move in all three axes. If there's a blockage in one direction, remove the obstacle which in your case sounds like package material (photo is not clear). If no obstacle, get a replacement drone.

Not sure if that plastic hook is a broken piece detached from the plastic to the right, or that's the hook to hold the gimbal plate where the plate slipped off the hook. Compare with the other side.

Since it can't be more than a week old, get a replacement.
