Hi, my first post here but have been lurking for a few weeks. Unfortunately, I've not had very good luck so far.
About a month ago my first bird (P3A) had a engine burn up during the very first startup and initialization, emitting white smoke. Subsequent start ups, that motor would run extremely hot while just idling, so hot you could not touch it for several minutes after. I was reluctant to fly it since the motor under load I feared would burn up the airframe. Newegg was great and RMA'd the unit and I received the new one two weeks later.
Out of the box I noticed the gimbal ribbon cable isn't nicely seated since the bends are off and manages to work its way out of its channel to make light contact with the camera housing. I can push it back but after every flight it's back to rubbing the housing. I pushed them back in place here but you can still see what I'm referring to in the image attachments below.
Additionally, I noticed the following behavior the video link below when I tested the gimbal. While I don't believe I'll ever need to record banking that aggressively, I would like to know if this is something I should be concerned about.
Thanks in advance,
CG
