Gimbal not ready, do not fly

[FJ23]

after running a gimbal calibration I can see a whole list ‘gimbal not ready, do not fly’ warnings in flight log. Does that relate to the gimbal calibration? Or is that a warning. That something is wrong with the gimbal? The automatic gimbal calibration actually says it calibrated successfullly. Not sure what the conflicting messages mean. Any clarity around this would be most welcome.

Thanks!

It always says this when it first turns on. It is not ready until it has done a mini calibration after startup. It will also say this if you accidentally leave the gimbal cover on.

Doesn't it also have to gather the GPS signals to a minimum amount of satellites as well before the warning goes out? That's what I thought anyway.

It needs to find the GPS satellites for the compass calibration.

Thanks - I was simply thinking the OP may not have noticed the difference. My Gimbel boots up pretty fast, but I usually have to wait a little longer for the sats to load.
