My new x5s makes a weird sound when tilting and panning. No vibration, just a high-pitched whining sound. Seems to be coming from the gimbal. I have updated the firmware. Is this normal?

Here is a video of the lens. Just wondering the sound is normal or a defect?

Thanks for the video, that is definitely louder than my 2 personal Inspire 2's. Does it make the same noise with other lenses? How well is it balanced when the aircraft is turned off?

Mine has been making the same, I have been trying to figure out if it’s normal or not.

It's normal. I have the same sound with mine. You can hear the same sound from dji ronin gimbals too. Nothing to worry about.
