A while back I was trying to poke at the firmware to try and find any kind of auto-calibrate on these. It's a **** shame, but I'm starting to think that there is no built-in code that does this. Here's some info I've been collecting on it...

You will need to solder serial connections to your board among other things and follow the re-flashing instructions carefully. I recommend reading and re-reading the instructions a few times followed by stepping through them in a 'dry-run' simulation where you pretend to solder the wires to the...

I had this same problem. Here's how I fixed it. Get some coffee/tea, it's a long read as it covers many of the mistakes and weird problems I had. The same firmware problem can appear, and be fixed similarly, in the Zenmuse X3.

Doing an experiment now. I found some cheap power banks at a goodwill. They had a shelf full of them with the JPS logo on them. Looks like some kind of promotional thing. I expected them to be the Alibaba or Aliexpress fire starter specials, but the results were even more disappointing than what...

Come to think of it I wasn't really paying attention. 🤷‍♂️

It's possible, but believe me when I say that I had the EXACT same symptoms after changing the head on my X3 where it wouldn't respond unless I moved the head to a certain position. I thought I had a bad cable at first even though it was good before I changed the head. Turns out if the encoders...

The best way to tell for sure would be to look at the code that runs the battery controller, but that's not possible for most of us as that is going to be only DJI eyes only. Another way to tell would be to experiment with it. Try discharging below 50%, 40%, 30%, etc and see if it counts up...

I think I know the github repo they were talking about earlier. https://github.com/o-gs/dji-firmware-tools Good luck and safe flying!

This looks more like your gimbal lost calibration somehow, or the magnetic encoders have moved and are now out of sync. Same thing happens to the X3 when I changed the head and it would respond just like this. Both share similar hardware. You can try adjusting the magnets by carefully rotating...

Okay so I'm just banging rocks together here and otherwise have no idea what I'm doing. I found the documentation that has already been created. My findings seem to sorta match this and explains a lot about why it does what it does. That said, it's still incomplete...

I've been experimenting more and have come up with a list of vague function descriptions via trial and error sending command to my Inspire 1 and Zenmuse X3. I'm using the 'comm_serialtalk.py' script to send the commands. python comm_serialtalk.py --port COM24 -vv --timeout=500...

I made 'some' headway. I was poking around with how the packets are constructed and managed to get the X3 to do something different when changing '0x08' to '0x0A'. I'm not sure what this is supposed to do, but it makes the gimbal look all the way up or all the way down to it's limits but not one...

I've tried it on multiple firmware versions last night on my Inspire 1 with the Zenmuse X3 and none work as expected. After reviewing the script it looks like it was never fully tested on the X3 (WM610) so unfortunately it doesn't quite work. Although the gimbal and drone do respond to the...

Some more info for anyone who is trying this. Here is what I've been trying to do for mine although I haven't completed the process as I'm in the middle of downgrading the firmware to see if the scripts will work then as they don't seem to work with the newest firmware. I'm using the scripts...
