Pocket 2 getting very hot

[Jeremy Clark]

Hi all. Just bought a Pocket 2 to complement my MA2. Even while setting it up, the body gets very hot & I've had a Gimbal Heat warning. I read during set up that filming at highest 60FPS will cause it to heat up, but even at 30FPS, it still seems to be overly hot. Is this normal? Any ideas?

It's quite normal. Especially when you connect your wifi to your phone. But it is not hot enough to burn your hand.
