I've been having issues with the gimbal occasionally jerking all over in a variety of directions. One flight it will be fine and the next few it goes haywire.
Yesterday it had what I will compare to a violent seizure as it jerked all over at high speeds, in all directions (up down left right). It started slamming hard with audible sounds of the gimbal reaching it's hard limit of turning (hitting whatever stoppers there are in all directions).
Before I had a chance to turn it off, the camera literally fell off. This all occurred while on the ground without the motors running and the battery on with the Phantom powered up. Thankfully I was not in the air away from my yard which would have made the camera a lethal weapon falling from the sky. I did not see anything that held the camera's mount in place other than what appears to be a copper wound circular mount which I assume is magnetic? Oh and the thin ribbon cable that broke cleanly down the center.
I managed to record some video of it jerking around rather spasmodically just shortly before the camera fell off.
After the camera detached, the gimbal continued to jerk around in all directions until I powered it off. Will add pics shortly and video later when I get back from work.
