EFP gimbal balance shifts during 180-degree panning while on docking pin
What the thread found
- A gimbal can appear balanced when stationary but become back-heavy during a 180-degree pan rotation while mounted on the docking pin, then return to balance when panned back
- This balance shift issue in EFP gimbals is typically caused by shim misalignment within the gimbal assembly rather than bearing problems
- The issue has been commonly experienced by multiple EFP gimbal users
Depends on
- This problem is specific to the EFP gimbal model
- The solution requires disassembly and shim adjustment, which may need professional service
- The exact shim adjustment procedure is referenced in external documentation
