Uneven Horizon

Skipholiday · Jun 29, 2016

The horizon leans quite a bit in photos and videos. How do I correct this?

Thanks

Re-calibrate in Go app with your bird on a flat surface. In flight press and hold C2 button under RC and turn right wheel to adjust gimbal tilt.

Thank you very much. I will do this in the morning.

Common problem effecting most P4s

Erised · Jun 29, 2016

If your tilt is always on the same side and persists like my P4, I had to calibrate manually in Go app after I did a flat recal, for me I think I had to adjust to -.7 , this gave me almost perfect and I sometimes have to tweek in flight. I find in higher winds it tends to tilt more.

Thanks, this was confounding me too!

Same with my p3s. I just adjust as needed when I am in flight. Calibration didn't work when I tried it.

Glad I read this post cause I've got the same problem and always wondered how to correct it.

Calibration will not correct it. I've read every thread on it and you can fix it in flight but it won't last. Hopefully it's not too bad like mine.

...ditto - have had my p4 for three months and horizon leveling is always an issue no matter how many recalibrations, adjustments, etc. - I wind up just adjusting the bad tilt in post with subsequent degradation of image quality - sigh - I guess we're all stuck waiting for that "perfect" p5 next year...
