Hello all,
I unboxed my P3A Monday evening (6/15) and spent most of Tuesday (6/16) doing the firmware updates, IMU cal, stick cal and gimbal cal. None of these were easy and straightforward as the documentation leaves something to be desired. I finally had my maiden voyage Tuesday afternoon in Beginner Mode. Flight controls worked well, but I came across a couple of issues with the camera:
1. Still images in MOV or MP4 all have a defect in the image near the bottom. Check out the image I took of myself at the link below. At the bottom of the image you can see some horizontal parallel lines. These show up in every still image; they shouldn't be there. I tried restarting, taking more pics, etc., but the lines remain. Nothing visible on the lens or lens cover glass. Anybody have any ideas. Seems like a defective sensor to me. These lines DO NOT show up in the video.

2. I'm also having an issue with jittery/shaky video, but I still need to try some adjustments on the gimbal.
Thanks for any ideas on this still image issue.
