Balancing X5 Gimbal

Clever.

I need to get myself a 3D printer. I think I'm all tapped out on expensive hobbies, lol.
 
I used a small lead strip, shaped to fit inside the camera hood, with a self tapper through from the outside. You can just make it out in the pic.
 
DJI crease me up. I love it when they add the word Pro to a product and assume it automatically makes it a professional product! I'm on my third camera, and now I see all this nonsense about sticking coins and weights to ensure the gimbal is correctly balanced. Bloody marvellous. Very professional DJI.

yep Howard, I understand your annoyance. I only realised the balance issue when, everytime I shut the battery off, the camera swung vertical. Then it dawned on me that the motors might be driving too hard.
