have you checked if the gimbal port on the aircraft side is seated properly? not the ribbon inside the gimbal itself but where it connects to the body. mine had a very similar drift issue and it turne
this is really starting to annoy me. had the yaw drift issue on my Mavic 3 back in the spring, sent it to DJI care refresh and they supposedly replaced the gimbal assembly. worked fine for maybe two months and now its slowly pulling left again when im flying forward at any speed above like 20mph. its subtle but you definitely notice it in longer clips.
ive done the gimbal calibration multiple times. auto calibration, manual, all of it. no change. the horizon looks fine its just the yaw creep that gets me. im wondering if this is a known issue with the motor in the yaw axis or if maybe the ribbon cable is partially damaged and its giving bad feedback to the stabilization. i really dont want to send it in again, last time i was without it for three weeks
