Just installed my H3-3D v1.1
Details here: Phantom 2 / H3-3D : Hole and Spacer Mod
1) It's not level on the horizontal and vertical. Here's a diagram and image:
2) I have the same quiet buzzing as everyone else reports.
3) It goes mental when you tip the craft to do a compass cali.
I've installed it perfectly (will write a post soon)...
Any ideas on this, are others experiencing the same un-levelness?
Firmware:
Update 1:
Played around with the sticks calibration (again) and it seems to have fixed / straighten the top view. Can't seem to get the horizon level. Must be a gimbal calibration bug / error?
Update 2 - Flight Test:
I just went for a flight test, first time using 3.02 as well.
Craft is flying well and the gimbal is working nicely, but definitely have some interference jello going on. I've got a Polar Pro ND coming tmr, no doubt that will sort out this out.
Generally, there is something not quite right about the gimbal. Every time I boot the Phantom the gimbal very slowly twists to the left but eventually seems to settle. On one occasion, in the field, it was doing that weird crazy erratic sideways thing others have reported and I had to reboot the Phantom. Additionally, there is a crazy high pitch noise on the footage. It seems to stop when in the air, I noticed it prior to take off and when I'd landed. Will get some footage up tonight to show this. Weird.
There is also some notable scan lines on my Black Pearl which I didn't have on the 2D. It's not a deal breaker, but it demonstrates there is some interference problems going on and I think that audio noise is something to do with interference too. Just to add, I've got the interference board hooked up inside my P2.
The horizon tilt is annoying, it's slight but you can notice it on footage. Easy enough to correct in post, but the gimbal should be level. I suspect this is a calibration issue as the hardware is fitted true, hopefully a software update will solve this. Interested to see if other have this issue too?
Update 3 - Audio Tone:
Here's the audio tone. I originally thought it was just before / after flying, but it's possibly making this noise all the time and the motors are drowning it out.
