Vertical Gimbal Tilt Not Responding to Touch

[acebattiste]

I have a new P3A and the vertical/pitch gimbal tilt is not responding to the touch pad indicator on the DJI GO app. I can move the gimbal from 90 degrees to 180 degrees with the C2 control but when I swipe down on the control ledger on the right side of the screen, the gimbal doesn't move. I have done ?successful RC, gimbal, IMU and compass calibrations. All other functions seem to be working fine. What am I missing?

Does it respond when you use the wheel on the top, left of the remote controller?

 

[acebattiste]

Yes, it moves a small amount horizontally.

And swiping the vertical bar on the right side of DJI GO does absolutely nothing?

Did you move the wheel the entire way up/down when you calibrated the remote controller in DJI GO?

Oops. Actually, the RC calibration failed. (Sorry, I forgot about that.) When I did the RC cal and moved the sticks all around, nothing happened. I tried this for several seconds and it kept telling me to move the sticks in 360 degrees and the "Finish" button stayed grey-out and wouldn't respond. (I guess this is the first question I should have addressed!)

Okay, I just did what I think was a successful RC calibration and I still have the same problem. When I swipe down, I get full screen. Also, when I just tap the screen, I get a ring segmented in 4 parts that says "exposure." Maybe I have to adjust a camera setting?

Here's what a successful calibration looks like:

That's all working as designed.

You can only tilt the gimbal in DJI GO by sliding this bar:

It's easier to use the wheel on the remote controller.
