  • Yesterday, I reported this gimbal motor overload problem hoping for someone out there to help me fix this trouble but while waiting for answers I came across some youtube videos that showed some hints on how to solve this. Thanks to iRepairMD's video about Phantom 3 Gimbal Repair from Start to Finish I was able to learn that my problem was actually caused by the gimbal motor misalignment.
    In this video, I'm going to show you how I fixed my phantom.

    I found this video on OneEyeDrone. I have to say -- THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have had this problem and a grounded drone for 2 months -- took me that long to finally search it the right way and find your site. Instantly fixed and I can fly again!

    Thanks a million!!!, my Phantom 4k was showing gimbal motor overload, and it was going crazy when i turned it on, saw your fix and decided to give it a try, it works so well i can't thank you enough, save me from shipping my drone to US for repair (my country doesn't have a service center).

    This was extremely helpful! I was just about to send my drone to DJI to let them fix it. Your solution is very simple so I thought well let's give it a try. And it WORKED! This saves me a lot of time and money probably, so thanks a lot!!

    @ViestursProskins4 Před 7 lety

    Thanks for sharing this, my drone was collecting dust already due issues with gimbal, and other fixes online did not help me to solve it. Tried out this one - and it works. It is not perfect yet, but I guess I need to do now full calibration and then maybe retry to adjust this axis.

    Thanks, that fixed mine.
    Unit was crashed and broke the roll motor ring that holds it to the motor. Ripped cable in two. Replaced cable, then it
    would not align. Did this and also IMU calibrate and adjust roll a bit and it works.

    I'm glad that you didn't glue as I've seen in another video. This way you'll need to realign the next time you have a minor hot. I'm thinking glueing things make it easier to break. Alignment is better than repair

  • @UGotTheWrongGuy
    @UGotTheWrongGuy Před 6 lety +1

    It fixes my problem but I have to do this almost every time I fly. Is there any reason why it gets misaligned? When flying it's perfect, I can move the camera up and down without issues. The footage is stabilized also. Could it be that the gimbal roams freely in the drone backpack?

    I've already unscrewed the screws and taken aPart the electronic circuit board. Doing the pliers part tomorrow! Hoping for the best, since its had the gimbal motor overload error since coming out of the box on Christmas (the day after it, actually) and this drone is pointless to me unless I can take video with it!! (AKA can't even move gimbal, takes video fine)

    It misaligned after a crash which also broke the epoxy bond that secures the shaft in place you can tweak it back with pliers but it's not bonded with epoxy anymore so it's going to move and you're going to keep repeating the same step you have to pull the motor apply epoxy and reassemble
