Concerning the issue a lot have with the camera pointing down at power up I found this last nite while messing with mine .
It does have a drawback but fixed that problem .
Where it says Stick Monitor I hit it and it reversed it so when I power up the camera goes up !
Drawback.....It also reverses your wheel travel .Like wheel up ..camera down and wheel down camea up .
Just thought I'd share .

Thanks for sharing dirk

I can't comment or help out on the above cos I don't have the upgrade TX

I changed to reverse and it still points down when started. only reverse control wheel.

Skip I had went into RC assistant and messed with that and that might be why mine does that . Don't ask me what I done as it took me a couple of hours to straighten out what ever I did do !! That's how I saw it was doing that so ya might have to go in that and calibrate your TX and then go back in to the other assistant to get that .
I basically had a mess for awhile before I got it back right !
Was the first time I had been in RC assistant and was lost as hell !!
But it do that ! Just couldn't figure out how to get the wheel to do right and the camera to stay up .

I had the same problem too at one point Squid and was why I spent half the night messing with it to get it back right !!!
I just don't know the right way to mess around in there bro .
I just kept on in there and then going to RC in the 3.08 assistant till I got it back to where I had it !
