I'm not sure if this is normal... On my second flight I received a "gimbal motor overload". Since then I have noticed that the gimbal will jerk anytime I yaw left or right (left stick) and or strafe left or right (right stick). On my first flight video this never occurred. I'm curious if my gimbal is broken???
 
Are you seeing the Motor Overload Error come up during any specific flight maneuvers? There was a bug with this error message that was reported to us a few times in weeks past, are you running the latest firmware?

I only got it on my second flight. Disappeared afterwards. Did an IMU recal and it has never shown up again. My only issue is that I only have my first flight to compare in which the gimbal never jumped around... Can I send you a video?
 
I think you get that message when the camera Vinny's into contact with something. Even landing it in the tall grass will do it. I've gotten it with my DJI 3 and with the Spark. I bought a landing pad so I don't see the problem any more
 
Mine did the same thing during its first battery pack. Seemed to be okay then threw the Gimbal error. I powered everything down and up a couple times and it cleared up. Haven't seen it since...
