Hi everyone,

I'm having an issue with a Phantom 4 Pro gimbal. The issue is after hand-launching the horizon remains slanted. I've hand-launched P4P's from ships dozens of times in the past without this issue. I understand that when the Phantom boots up the gimbal must auto calibrate, so when hand-launching from a ship in moderate seas the gimbal may calibrate inaccurately. The manual adjustment in the go4 app does not make it level. When onshore I've calibrated the gimbal on a flat non-moving surface and as you can see in the video the gimbal does not self-level. I've been through all the auto and manual calibration steps a few times now with the same results. Does anyone have any ideas of how to correct this? Thanks!
