Various people sell 3D printed levers to suit, or you can add your own 7th channel knob to the front, or you can upgrade your transmitter to a 3rd party one with 7 channels by default.
I suspect new Phantoms will come with this lever fitted soon, as DJI have released an upgrade kit for the gimbal that includes it.

You need to turn that off, and install the "Zenmuse gimbal" assistant software.
After you set up the gimbal, in the Zenmuse gimbal assistant software, then you can go into the Naza Assistant software,
and calibrate the X-1 channel, which is on the back of your radio transmitter.
The gimbal control area in the Naza Assistant software, is for non DJI gimbals. The DJI Zenmuse gimbal is "Plug & Play"

ok so here is the deal (i think I have a solution to the original poster's problem)
1.) connect your phantom and Tx to the Naza-M V2 Assistant software. Make sure you are running the latest version and firmware
2.) go to Basic
3.) go to RC
4.) perform an X1 calibration as follows:
5.) look at the back of your Tx at the lower right hand corner, you are going to see two holes there is an X with a circle around it next to the holes
6.) insert a flathead screwdriver on the upper of these two holes
7.) press the "START" button for X1 Calibration
8.) turn the screw driver all the way to the left then to the right then to the left again then to the right again
you are going to see the X1 lever move from left to right and you are going to see your camera tilt up and down
When you find the position of the camera that is to your liking stop then end calibration

Just want to be absolutely clear about this...
If using DJI's H3-2D Zenmuse gimbal on a Phantom, you need to have the gimbal switch (under the Advanced>Gimbal tab) set to OFF in NAZA-M V-2 Assistant software????
Thanks for this, really appreciate it. As a newbie, it seemed kind of obvious that you WOULD switch the gimbal to "on" in the NAZA-M Assistant...
Just wondered where is the documentation to say that you shouldn't with the Zenmuse?
Richard_mcconnell said:I have sympathy with the problems posted above. I have a similar issue. I updated the NAZA-M software to 3.14 and the PMU to 0.2.0.4. So all up to date. Connected my Phantom to my PC and everything checked out. I then discovered there was Zenmuse Assistant software 1.02 and installed that. I shut down the NAZA-M programme and started the Zenmuse programme. This seems to have no functionality. I was hoping to get a firmware update from it? When I tried to start NAZA-M software alongside this, it told me that the controller was already running. I'm not sure what I need the Zenmuse Assistant for and how I make it work.
Anyway, when trying to calibrate the X1 channel in the NAZA-M software and adjust the X1 channel on the back of the remote, I can't seem to get the gimbal to respond to turning the screw on the remote. The slider on the X1 channel appears to move itself from the left, middle and right positions and gimbal follows. Somehow I managed to hold the slider in the middle position and the camera looks straight ahead but I'm sure this was more luck than judgement. I'm finding it impossible to adjust the camera tilt other than what it wants. Any ideas guys?
