Premium Members Josh Pickering Posted October 27, 2020 Premium Members Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) I also have the Volt setup. When I rotate the gimbal left and right under weight, the sled pans as well even when my hand is not on the gimbal sleeve. I’m shooting in Utah and the temp yesterday morning was 9 degrees on set. Thinking it has something to do with the cold but I have been using a hairdryer to heat it up and seems better but it’s still not “loosey goosey” when I move the the gimbal left or right. The sled essentially pans by itself when I move the gimbal. Any thoughts? Edited October 27, 2020 by Josh Pickering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Marco Dardari Posted October 28, 2020 Premium Members Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Hi Josh, I had the same problem, it happened to me too with low temperatures: "when I turn on the volt and start the pan the system starts to fluctuate, only after several ignition attempts does the system start well" they have replaced the main board in the gimbal unit and encoder sensor in Burbank.

Premium Members Kevin Jacobsen Posted April 16, 2021 Premium Members Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 It could be pan wag caused by your pan bearing needing a good cleaning. Does it happen when the gimbal handle is influencing it or completely stationary when on your balancing stud? Also other things: If this happens while in a tilt with the volt on, just adjust your side to side to stop the pan. Be cautious of the tension of the volt cable it's lack of slack could influence pan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
