Hello, do you have a solution, please? I have similar problem. If I have my EOS M6 Mk2 on gimbal Feiyu Tech G6 Max and I use external mic Rode VideoMicro, there is an annoying high-frequency whistling in record. No problem without mic, no problem with GoPro + mic. I'm already very desperate :-(. I have to try the toroid core. Thanks.

You might also try a Ferrite Choke.  You place it near the camera.
