unyks, thanks for your reply. Its an X3 and it mounts properly and moves freely. The message flags up even if I don't try to operate the camera about 30 seconds after I power up the aircraft.

Watty, sorry to have to say I bought a replacement from an Ebay user who had upgraded to an X5.
Resurrecting this old thread to ask if you replaced the whole camera assymbly to fix this problem, Thanks
UPDATE: After a couple of discussions with DJI tech support resulted in the usual "Send it in to us" I bit the bullet and ordered a new, factory warranted camera. Issue resolved.

please help me guys, just got the inspire and I'm super excited but once I started flying it I got the message saying "Gimbal motor overload" what did you guys end up doing? thank you
Is it new? Contact the seller....I had to buy a new camera as mine was out of warranty..
You can contact them through the support tab on their website. BTW, never fire up your bird if the camera/gimbal is encumbered from freely calibrating. Never leave your bird on for extended periods of time without flying or having a cooling fan pointed on it. Both of these things can burn up your gimbal.
