Hi guys, I'm brand new to the forum and brand new to the drone world.
I received my Phantom 3 Standard this past Monday and was having so much fun until Tuesday afternoon. I had a slight crash which broke an ear on the vibration plate mounted to the body. I ordered new pieces and just received them today. I competed the repairs and fired it back up for a test flight. When doing so is when I ran into my problem.
The camera now fails to stay "level" vertically. When I use the tilt wheel on the remote moving the camera "down", once it goes about 20 degrees or so, it goes limp and faces straight down. The tilt wheel at this point does nothing and is unable to move the camera back to "level". I've done a bunch of searching and found the Horizon Fix videos and thought maybe that would work, it did not since my issue is not horizontal but "vertical". I also thought that maybe the 3 wires I reconnected were not seated fully but after inspection of them this wasn't the case either.
Has anyone ran into this issue as well? I have tried using a ton of different key words when searching but keep coming up with results about the horizon fix and not the tilt.
Let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance!
