Just to add I think I see some where in sport mode with critical low battery can throw the gimbal error , thanks
Wind doesnāt seem that strong. The first gimbal warning is almost exactly the same time that the battery voltage drops below 9.90 volts. Iām guessing - that must be the voltage where the gimbal starts to struggle - so if you increase demand by using sports mode there is probably not enough juice to go around. 
Everything else looks normal. Data says that the battery has only been charged once - is that correct ??
If so - the battery performance will probably improve a little after a few charges.
Kep an eye on the battery info for the next few flights - just to be sure thereās nothing going wrong with the battery

Yes john that is exactly correct Iāve just bought another battery , the only reason I have stocked up on these batteryās just in case I did get the air2s ! Iām going to get out later today in the right place as I know my frustration & the ( call it ) quick test flights I have been doing since it has been repaired is going to land me in trouble if Iām not careful 
, I donāt want to break all the rules thatās for sure , Iāve just re calibrated the sensors the gimbal & I m u also the controller and Iāll do the compass when I get to my location at about 6 pm today , Iām gonna be totally honest Iāve spent to much time looking for probally whatās not there than flying it , today it all changes I got to control this ocd s&&t itās doing my head in 
, I well appreciate all your help , how you understand reading in to that is obviously good knowledge and experience , I know how to check the batteryās in the fly app not sure if that will be ok , big thanks to you guys taking the time and effort to read in to this for me , I wish I knew the things you guys did , it would be nice to give something back instead of keep asking ā¦. Much much thanks !
My only suggestion is when you fly is to keep an eye on the battery percentage level.
For me - I would look to be ending the flight with 20 percent remaining - this gives you a bit of margin in case things go a little Pete Tong at some point.
Just like all the others here, Iām only too happy to help whenever I can - we all had to learn at some point. Just like learning to drive - it will become second nature
Just remember - the only silly question is the one you didnāt ask which then ends up in crashing the drone. The more questions asked the more we all learn
Let us know how the gimbal performs on your 6 oāclock flight - fly safe

I would strongly second this.
Of all the things I regret flying drones, itās been forced mistakes because I had decided to squeeze another few photos or more video before returning, and had no choices left for landing.

Thanks john , yep I always usually land at 20-25% but because I only took one battery out to test everything , as you can see in the flight log I went one way came back wasnāt sure then shot off again in another direction , about me saying it was windy , weāre I was there was gusts ( ground level ) I presumed it was above as-well as the wind was behind me but head on for the drone , hence the sport mode & the drone did not like it , i pushed it too far 
! Thatās a lesson learned for sure , Iād be absolutely stuffed if I hadnāt of found GADC I would of gave up or sold it by now , I can never be grateful enough to the club & everyoneās efforts , so appreciative . 
thanks again
Yes I totally get that & I guess it puts you under pressure , then the wind changes direction ( figure of speech ) then itās landing on its own Iāll be honest I crapped myself nearly when I felt like what ever I was pressing , cancel pause or whatever it basically done what it wanted to do like I had lost control , thatās pretty naughty , that then set off panic & anxietyās , again a big lesson learned thanks Andy , I do listen to people believe it or not 
I just come up with stupid things in my head !
Again a big thanks
The thing to do is hold the left stick up, trying to keep the bird aloft for a while longer. It should respond to that and let you steer around while itās screaming blue murder ācritical battery landing nowā and beeping like a demented banshee.
The Mavic Air 2 can fly up to 45mph and can cover 3/4 mile in a minute. IF youāre not flying too far from where youāre standing it can cover that ground in a short time and you can save yourself a walk, but only if youāve got enough flight time to put down safely.
However if youāre caught in a worst case scenario, steer away from people, property, trees, find a location where the drone wonāt be run over by a car nor picked up by a member of the public. The drone can land itself, then the DJI Fly software will help you track down where it landed.
The more battery you have on landing, the longer the drone will stay conscious while you look for itābut weāre not doing this in a situation where thereās much juice left. The drone can be told to beep and flash its lights, but itās not very loud nor bright and the best bet is to have picked that emergency landing place carefully and know how to get to the exact place.
Itās good also to have your mobile phone number label on outside of drone becuase some members of the public will do the right thing!

Cheers for that Andy , all taken in Iāll do that with the phone number , Iāll also plan my flights more carful and think ahead so this does not happen again , many thanks

You said it was windy - a gust hitting the drone from the front can cause a brief gimbal error ( but not strong steady winds as the airspeed is the same regardless of wind direction)
Thanks mate , I think it was the critical low battery & in sports mode was to much for it , many thanks
