Camera tilt not working.

[Deaharm]

Hello all,

New to the forum.

Have a P3 Standard and the camera up and down tilt has stopped working. The gimbal moves side to die during startup but the camera no longer moves up and down at startup. I am unable to move the camera up and down with remote. Have not had a crash or damage to the drone. Last use it worked fine and now nothing. Any help would be appreciated.

Does the camera move up at all, or does it just stay limp? Sounds like you may need a new pitch motor.

No it's limp all of the time.

Yeah you probably need a new pitch motor. Can you get live feed?

Yes but will be later today.

No, I mean can you see in the app what the camera is seeing?

Thank you for the help. I'll start looking for one. Is there anything that may have caused it to quit? Don't want it to happen again.

It could have just wore out. Have you ever turned on the drone with the gimbal lock still on? It could have got overloaded and just stopped working. Ever get a "Gimbal motor overload error"?

I think I have. Never received that error though. Thanks again for the help
