5) The G6 Max still vibrates when set up in “Auto Adaption” and reboot?
How do I fix it?
1 Please make sure the three axes are balanced properly, then turn the gimbal on.
2 Once the gimbal is on, please DO NOT hold the camera with your hand.
3 Please check what causes the vibration.
You can identify which motor needs to be adjusted by doing the following:
Hold one of the motors in working status with your hand. If it stops vibrating,
that’s the right motor and you should decrease its motor strength.
Vibration with sound: it occurs when the motor strength us too high. You can
resolve this by decreasing the motor strength to fix the weight of the camera
and lens.
Vibration without sound: it occurs when the motor strength us too low. You
can resolve this by increasing the motor strength to fix the weight of the
camera and lens.
