When the power is on while the motors are off, I have noticed that the gimbal quickly overheats. This also happens during firmware updates and IMU calibration. I overcome this by blowing a fan at the aircraft. I would recommend doing the same, while running the battery down without the props spinning, during their 8% reset. The gimbal is air cooled during flight, much like a motorcycle, and if not moving, it can overheat, without air circulating around it.I myself haven't heard that or remember reading that, I do hover around close to me and low to help run it down, I would say 20% or so and then let it sit to the other 8%, it doesn't seem to take too long.
But you have brought up a point I'm not sure so maybe someone will give input on that. Good question BTW!
