Gimbal arm twisted HELP

Each click only moves the gimbal a tiny bit. It might take a very large adjustment before you see it move to level. It's worth a try!

Well i just calibrated and now its straight im a bit confuse

That is indeed a big problem if it's true. There's only one way to find out

Mine was slightly bent after a minor crash 3 months ago. Horizon was off. But after a gimbal calibration, horizon is back to level. Arm is still slightly off but for now it's just cosmetic. Gimbal/camera still works normal.

Do you have to calibrate every time u start up your drone

No. Upon startup, camera does its dance then level.

It sounds like the gimbal calibration found its own level in relationship to the ground.

That sucks, but you do have a bent arm! I guess recalibrating it is a valid work-around until you can straighten or replace the arm. Cheaper too!

If you go into Adjust Gimbal Roll in the GO App, you can manually enter an adjustment amount and it will keep that setting even when you quit the app.

Or, as I found out yesterday from this forum, hold down the C2 button and use the aperture adjustment dial (right) to adjust the gimbal level during flight.

I would buy the replacement yaw arm.. i did it before and its very simple to do.. just go slow and easy with the ribbon cable!
