Hello everybody, I just had a crash with my Solo actually the first mishap ive had with my solo .. Did a autonomous flight using tower but somehow the solo managed to drop from 85m of height down to 10m and went in to some threes. After checking the engines and everything else. All seems fine accept from the gimbal , it's gone mental . Tried recalibrating everything but still no succes , the gimbal flapps from end to en in the horizontal axis and keeps panning left to right . Tried to find anything on how to reset the gimbal but can't find anything !

Does anyone have any experiance on how to solve this ?

That what I did after my gimbal broke. Tried to fix but no hope. End up buy new ones. Now I do more careful and try to not have solo crash again!
 
The strange thing is I have done maybe 50 auto missions with a lot of variations and use of many of towers functions and the solo has never missed before. I have a X8+ also and it does this kind of "falls" all the time and no one has been able to explain why... If all my way points are at the same height shouldn't one of the key goals of the auto flight be to maintain altitude as stable as possible?

If something looked fysical damaged I wouldn't even started this thread, I could only guess the gyro sensor chip of the gimbal is damaged?
