The DJI Mavic 3 is a premier drone, renowned for its exceptional image quality and stable flight performance, making it a favourite among creators and professionals. However, users may encounter the "gimbal overload error," a common issue that disrupts the drone’s camera stabilization. This error occurs when the gimbal, a precision system of motors and sensors, faces excessive stress or resistance. Understanding how to address it is essential for maintaining smooth aerial footage.
The DJI Mavic 3 gimbal overload error can arise from various causes, including physical obstructions like dust or hair, improper transport with the gimbal guard attached, firmware bugs from failed updates, mechanical wear, or impact damage from crashes. Effective solutions begin with a power cycle and debris inspection, often resolving minor issues. For persistent problems, updating the firmware via the DJI Fly app and calibrating the gimbal through the app’s settings can realign the system. If needed, checking for physical damage or performing a factory reset with DJI Assistant 2 may be required. In severe cases, replacing the gimbal with genuine parts from ReplaceBase, the UK’s leading supplier of drone components, is a viable option.
Regular maintenance, such as removing the gimbal guard before flight, using a padded case, and cleaning with a soft brush, is recommended to prevent future occurrences. Reviewing sensor logs in the DJI Fly app or consulting DJI support can provide further assistance for unresolved issues.
