    Litchi jerky

    You’re going to love it — it‘s dead smooth now.

    Gimbal jerking down in forward flight

    Where is the ‘tilt_atti setting’ you are referring to for the M2? I’d like to give that a try. Thanks.

    Gimbal jerking down in forward flight

    Just to be clear, when I started this thread, maybe it’s just me but this gimbal sensitivity issue started after the latest firmware update. Not sure if it’s because of the update, but I have not changed any settings, and now it’s MUCH more sensitive to this problem than ever before. Can anyone...

    Gimbal jerking down in forward flight

    Thanks for that info, Paul. I was just about ready to reset to defaults, but research was showing that you can't do that with DJI Assistant on the M2. Anyway, you just saved me from a lot of effort. Mine rarely jerks in 'P' mode, which is what I use 95% of the time anyway.

    Agreed. Will do.

    Gimbal jerking down in forward flight

    No, I have not tried resetting to factory defaults. Probably should, but it's maddening going through every single screen capturing every custom setting. :(

    Gimbal jerking down in forward flight

    I agree that it seems too sensitive. I may be wrong, but this seems to have started right after I uploaded the latest firmware a few days ago...

    Gimbal jerking down in forward flight

    This happens as soon as I start forward flight, so there is almost no wind at that point. The sudden movement has something to do with it, as 'S' mode pitches more violently than 'P' mode. Starting forward flight sloooowly helps, but does not eliminate it. And, yes, the gimbal is level after...

    Gimbal jerking down in forward flight

    It seems like I've seen this issue from others, but can't find the thread. Since the latest DJI update, when my gimbal is at 0 degrees or above, and I start forward flight, the gimbal jerks down to around -8 degrees. I have calibrated the gimbal several times, even removed the filter and...

    No More M2 Jerkiness!!

    DJI's latest firmware update finally fixed the jerkiness in curved waypoint missions. Smooth as glass now!

    Litchi jerky

    Yep, that’s the same issue we’ve all been experiencing with the M2 jerkiness. Welcome to the club. You’ll notice it the most with higher speed turns and closer distance to your subject. Nothing you can do until the DJI decides to fix it, which maybe never. I’ve resorted to flying almost all...

    Need help with the dreaded TBE (Toilet Bowl Effect)

    Well, thanks to Meta4's suggestion regarding stick calibration, today's test flights after calibration flew perfectly straight. Not sure why, after over 150 flights, the controller decided to go out of calibration as it's never been bumped or mistreated in any way. However, the good news is...

    Need help with the dreaded TBE (Toilet Bowl Effect)

    I just performed a stick calibration as recommended by Meta4. During the calibration the left stick on yaw was acting erratically until I calibrated it. That very well could have been my issue. I’m anxious to see the results in a flight in the morning...
