Using Python

[DRONE HAPPY]

Hello Droners!!!
I have completed gimbal repair on my mini 4k but need to use the python program. There are several you tube videos on how to use Python but they are several years old and use versions 3.9 or 3.10. I suspect that I should use the most recent version which is 3.14. Is that the correct approach?

I guess there is an error code showing usually 40011 or 40021, if so you dont use a python tool to calibrate the gimbal, you download a special firmware and flash that to the quad, the firmware is dependant on the roll back version but for rollback 4 level the firmware is 20.07.0700, once done if you have the 40021 error that requires a special program to clear it, you can follow this guide which is for the Mini 2 but same procedure should apply

Thank you Exphantomflyer. I should have mentioned that I don't have an error code like 40011. My error is "Gimbal motor overloaded". I guess my thread would be better stated as: "how do I clear gimbal motor overladed" error. The gimbal is new. I just assumed that python was the way to go, but this is all new to me.

Use the latest version when possible.

only way i would have thought is to get it replaced, no amount of calibration will clear an overload, let us know how you fair

Anything written for Python 3.9 or 3.10 should run without any issues with the latest version of 3.x.
