My P4 use to have that noise, but the camera was plagued with other faults, and had to change it at the end.
In this case, if everything else works, I would ignore for few flights, and then check again.

The camera works but when the gimbal motor howls, the camera moves left and right which doesn't make for a good video.
Suspicious malfunction....
Try calibrate everything at least 2 times, if it persists, time to send it back to DJI service.
Call them, and get ready to hear the Darth Vader breathing noise ....

Hi Tony,
I have a thread on this issue as well. My first Phantom 4 Pro purchased on January 09 made the same howling noise. DJI had me perform a complete set of calibrations (IMU, Compass, RC controller, Re-bind the Controller, and Gimbal). Also, they asked that I restore to factory conditions. I performed all of these requests but none of them resolved what both you and I experienced. On January 21, I returned my aircraft to Best Buy and received a replacement. The new aircraft does not have the issue that you are experiencing. I happy with my new aircraft as it works as it should. My suggestion is that if you are within your return period with your retailer that you seek a replacement aircraft.

Have the exact same problem.
If I yaw from left to right several times (with gimbal pan sync ON in camera settings) before takeoff noise seems to disappear. And I was not able to detect any false left/right movement in the videos.
Also if the quad is warm (for example 20 minutes powered on on my desk) the noise and left/right moves also disappears.

I returned it, the camera was defective. Screw mailing it in to DJI for repair. They take at least a month to fix anything.
If your talking about just who you hear from on here it might be as high as 90% LOL. For the most part I think most are very happy with theirs! As is the case here. But your really only gonna hear mainly the problems here.
My brand new P4P is making a loud noise from the gimbal motor. It makes a loud noise then the camera seeks left/right while making this noise. I also made a video so you can hear the noise.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
it is the yaw motor u need to take it apart and knock the center pin or shaft for the motor back back in
