Replace
IMO the best method to check a gimbal is put your fingers inside the hole and rotate back n forth. If there is any grit or play (as in your vid), it gets replaced

I’m not too familiar with these. Didnt know how they come new and if they have any play in them.

I suppose it’s time then.

This must be the grinding sound when I adjust trim....

I don’t remember it from last year but this year it was very noticeable.
