weird gimbal behavior after crash

  • Members

had a pretty hard crash with my mavic air 2 yesterday (my fault, got cocky flying in some trees) and now the gimbal is acting strange. it powers up fine and seems to calibrate normally but when i start flying it keeps drifting to the left slightly. not like spinning around crazy but just a slow drift. everything else seems ok, props are fine, motors sound normal. anyone dealt with this before or should i just send it in for repair?

sounds like the gimbal might be slightly bent or one of the dampeners got messed up in the crash. you could try a manual gimbal calibration through the app first but honestly crashes that affect the gimbal usually need professional repair. had the same thing happen to my mini 2 and trying to fly with a wonky gimbal just made everything worse

def try the calibration first like the other guy said but also check if the gimbal cover or guard got warped at all, sometimes they look fine but are actually slightly bent and cause weird drift issues. learned that the hard way after spending way too much time troubleshooting what turned out to be a 5 dollar part
