    Jumpy gimbal problem

    Sometimes when I have the camera in the forward position the gimbal gets jumpy and starts twitching up and down. But if I point it slightly down the twitches go away. See the video link below for an example. So far I haven't found a solution and thought I'd check to see if anyone here knows...

    Video feed problems

    Actually his phone is older and slower. Simply connecting my phone to the drones wifi, not even using the Go app yet causes a problem. I don't see how video settings or rendering on mine don't even come into play yet at that point. My old phone was a Nexus 5X which ran Go just fine: OS...

    Video feed problems

    Turns out you're right, but it's not a video processing issue. I tried my friends phone and it's not jumpy on his. So while using his I started to connect mine to the drone's wifi too and the picture immediately got jumpy again. Even before I'd opened the GO app. So at least now I know it's...

    Video feed problems

    I'm getting a jumpy/jittery video feed with burst of digital static and random disconnections. You can see some of it in this video. The video recording on the SD card is fine by the way. I'm using Go3 and wifi connection, this model doesn't have lightbridge so no cable connection. I relinked...

    Damaged motor not spinning right. Now neither new or old is spinning at all.

    Yeah birds, I know I made more work for myself splicing them in this way but I didn't want to solder directly on the board with the tools I had available. There was no problem with the leads on the motor I was using, because as you said those leads were pre-tinned. It was the other end, what...

    Damaged motor not spinning right. Now neither new or old is spinning at all.

    Steve, I tried flux, leaded solder, and a hotter iron. None of it worked. What finally did work was to use a blow torch to burn the enamel off. After that the solder stuck fine. I've worked with magnet wire before but never had this much trouble with it.

    Damaged motor not spinning right. Now neither new or old is spinning at all.

    So am having the strangest problem getting solder to stick to the wires coming from the ESC. I'm using flux core solder, and even though it didn't want to take any, even after sanding/filing to get past any possible coating, I finally got a very ugly joint to stick. Once I did the new motor...

    Damaged motor not spinning right. Now neither new or old is spinning at all.

    The damaged motor would spin, but not at full speed and had slightly more physical resistance when I spun it by hand. I figured it was a bearing or something. I ordered a new DJI replacement. I just clipped out the old one and temporarily connected the new one by twisting the wires together...
