Gimbal noise/vibration issue

[regularguyto]

Hello, everyone

I still experience the gimbal noise and vibration. Even after I’ve taken the battery tray off to ensure the gimbal data and HDMI cables not touching the gimbal inside. I also did a level and compass calibrations after everything was reinstalled, still same noise issue.

I've contacted 3DR regarding this, last response I got was to check the wiring, so I did. Still waiting for them to respond. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please view the photos. I also have a video regarding this issue, not sure how to post it on here. I don’t know what else I could do to resolve the issue.

UPDATE:

I received a response from 3DR, they believe my gimbal is malfunctioned. I sent in my info to have it RMA for a replacement.

Glad to hear that. That noise was definitely not right. Let's hope the next one lets you fly happy instead of worrying about it. Good luck.....

Yikes, yea I'd bet yours is bad, my h3-3D on my p2 does this a little at 90 sometimes, not like that though. It's the same sound but much quieter and it seems to affect signal occasionally, be careful if you put it in the air. At 89 degrees it's silent and even when it makes the noise it doesn't affect gimbal performance. Still can't be good for it though, I've just set my limit to stop earlier on p2, kinda sucks but nothing else worked and 1 degree isn't going to be noticeable.

Good luck

My h3-3d does the same thing. When playing back a video prior to motor start it's almost like feedback through the gopro audio. Just a constant buzz until you start up.
Yes, that sounds a lot worse than my P2 gimbal.

Thank you all for your inputs and support. Hopefully, I'll have better luck with the replacement gimbal.
