    DJI Zenmuse GH3 gimbal - new firmware wanted!

    Here is the graph I sent to DJI yesterday. It clearly shows the stepwise progression in angular pan speed as you increase input and the smooth ramped change when you decrease input.

    DJI Zenmuse GH3 gimbal - new firmware wanted!

    I had my unit sent back to DJI in Germany and it was returned with the same symptoms. They say that China is aware of the problem and is working on a firmware fix. I have managed to get myself onto their firmware beta testers list so hopefully will be able to report if anything changes for the...

    DJI Zenmuse GH3 gimbal - new firmware wanted!

    no smooth ramping I sent my unit back to DJI in germany supposedly to have them adjust the gains on the unit to fix this problem. When it came back it was exactly the same. Seems we are stuck with jerky starts and jerky speed changes when doing pan and tilt with this gimbal. No smooth ramping...

    DJI Zenmuse GH3 gimbal - new firmware wanted!

    This is a great video to show the problem. I hope you don't mind but I have sent the link to DJI to try to make sure they are fully aware of this issue.

    DJI Zenmuse GH3 gimbal - new firmware wanted!

    Interesting that you used trim settings to prove the stepping in speed in the increase and the smooth adjustment in the decrease. I had already done the same thing with exactly the same results. I just hope DJI are looking at this and will fix it soon. This is a great gimbal it's just been...

    DJI Zenmuse GH3 gimbal - new firmware wanted!

    I have exactly the same problem. the unit will pan smoothly once it is in operation but the start is always a jerk. I also find that to increase speed of pan during a pan is also a jerky transition instead of a smooth ramp. I have tried various curve settings on the trx but it doesn't stop...

    twitching problem in pan axix on zenmuse GH3

    I have a zenmuse GH3 with the latest firmware on a droidworx okto and I am experiencing unwanted twitching movements in the pan axis in all modes. This occurs every 5-10 secs with random time spacing. It seems to only occur when the motors are running. Is anyone else experiencing this with the...

    DJI acknowledges Zenmuse-GH3 fault. But when will it be fixed?

    I have all the same problems - trying to be patient and wait for the firmware. My bigger problem with this guimbal is that it is producing smalls twitches in the pan axis with no inputs from me. Is this likely to be part of the same problem or is this only me? If so does anyone have any...
