PROBLEMPOSSIBLE CAUSESSOLUTION

Status LED is blinking red

Low battery

Recharge battery

Status LED is solid red during startup

Camera is not balanced well or not installed

Check camera balancing

IMU cable is loose

Check in software for IMU sensor error, re-seat IMU sensor connector

Tilt motor cable or encoder cable is loose

Check in software for Tilt error, re-seat tilt motor connector and encoder connector

Roll motor cable or encoder cable is loose

Check in software for Roll error, re-connect roll motor connector and encoder cable

Pan motor cable or encoder cable is loose

Check in software for Pan error, re-connect pan motor connector and encoder cable

IMU sensor cable is loose

Re-seat IMU sensor connector

Excessive gyro drift

Re-calibrate Gyro

Oscillation in one or more axes

Stiffness setting is too high

Reduce stiffness

Thumbscrew/top bar nut is not tightened

Check tightening

Camera mounting is not stiff enough

Check camera mounting

Filters settings are incorrect: Gyro and output filter should only be changed if other methods of reducing oscillation have failed

Please read more in manual about Gyro filter and output filter (Advanced settings)

Gremsy gimbal seems to be drifting ( >1 degree/1 minutes)

Gyro sensor is drifting too much

Re-calibrate gyro

Motors seem to be weak

Stiffness is too low

Increase stiffness

Footage appears to wobble side to side or up and down

Stiffness setting is low

Increase stiffness settings, start with the axis which is poorly stabilized. Higher Stiffness will achieve better stabilization. The tuning process is described in the user manual.
