Definitely Zenmuse is not for professional use , just advanced hobbytist ... take a look at the smoothness of that Movi (brushsless cinestar ) .. there is a big difference with the ROBOTIC movements of the Zenmuse . Any crane controller have a damping , ramp or whatever you call it for adjust the smoothness at the end of the movement , even the other stabilizations systems ( mikrokopter , overfly , skyline , radian ) have it but not The Zenmuse
DJI ¿ WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR IMPLEMENT THIS DAMPING TO THE ZENMUSE SOFTWARE ?
it's really frustrating when you're trying to make a smooth recording, each time you move the stick to control the Zen the result is very robotic , very hard, no matter the setting of your transmiter or softness of your stick movement , and even worse with pan movement in fpv mode

I agree with you on the robotic annoying movement, makes me need to do alot of cuts and fades during video editing, however, we have to be honest in that Zenmuse is currently the most stable/smoothest gimbal with several control options.. I have gone through many kinds of gimbals, servo belts, types of gyros, they always drift and dont produce smooth stabilized movements..
The only other CURRENT method of stabilization that is comparable to zenmuse is the ingenious Ecilop concept that uses a counter balance center for smooth gliding movements.
I am just happy that I do not really need to hardly any software stabilization with the zenmuse, maybe just 2% smoothing in premiere for the micro vibs.. as opposed to previous methods where I needed to do heavy software stabilization degrading alot of the quality.
back to subject. Weather/Load seem to be the factor in these sudden descents.. I haven't tried covering any openings but might try to do so soon.. on a calm day the S800 flies like a charm, on gusty days it wants to go down... I even had to stop using the retractable landing gear to save as much weight as possible.
The update didn't really do much too.
