Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

I've had it happen a few times where I want the camera to go barely to the left or barely go right and it just takes off on its own. One time I actually had to unplug the camera from the NVR to get it to stop; probably went around at least 12 times! Once I plugged the camera back in, I carefully and slowly reversed the direction 12 times or so (after reviewing saved footage). I'm thinking the interal wiring was getting twisted so I wanted to undo the twisting.
I’ve had this happen but only when using the BI app or when I’m remotely connected to my BI PC from my phone or laptop when I’m out of town. I think it’s a lag/connection quality issue. It’s like it picks up the initial click to move the PTZ but it never sees the “unclick” so it just keeps spinning.

I’ve never had it happen when controlling the PTZ from my home BI PC.

So maybe a bad connection? Issue with switch or cables or connectors?
 
Randomly have had this happen on multiple PTZs from the cheap Mini up to $2000 6/8 series

Its the connection from the program your'e using, gets the Go signal and misses the STOP signal
