Creeping Gimbal Issue

[rmb]

For some reason as of late, when I am hovering or sometimes just on the ground I have noticed a very slight creeping pan to the right. I have calibrated the gimbal twice in hopes that that would help it, but it hasn't. Any ideas?

I have noticed my P3P do that too. I haven't thought much about it, but no you've got me thinking. Wonder what would cause that?

It could be in response to some "perceived" movement of the drone. Maybe compass interference? I'd start with a full calibration of the compass and the IMU, if I were you.
Keep us posted.

What bothered me most is when flying, as you pan left, then stop, the camera pans right about 3 degrees. That's until you find the setting to disable it. It's called something like "gimbal following", can't remember exactly. That could be what you're experiencing on the ground.

Sometimes my P3P pans one way and stays there, so it is off to one side and will not go back.

...same deal, slowly for about a half to one degree over two or three seconds, except to the left - very annoying waiting for it to stop for still images!!! - if I get the cajones to update to the latest firmware, maybe that'll do the trick!

Try disabling ENABLE SYNCHRONIZED GIMBAL PAN FOLLOW. I think that will fix that anomaly.

CAMERA ICON> ADVANCED SETTINGS>ENABLE SYNCHRONIZED GIMBAL PAN FOLLOW

Turn that off.

...hmmm, I kinda like the way that function smooths out turns, but turned it off and it didn't work sitting on table last night, still "creepy"...will try when in the air today!
