    Re-center gimbal

    Do you mean for the Gimbal to move to 0 degrees vertically, but remain at 30 degrees horizontally? If so, I’m not aware of anyway to do that. I believe it is either 0,0 or 0,90 downward. Again, others?

    Re-center gimbal

    My experience is you can toggle between 0 degrees forward and 90 degrees down. Anybody correct me if I’m wrong.

    MA2 Unboxing

    Guilty! I found it when changing a filter. Didn’t seem to effect anything.

    Firmware V01.00.0309

    It’s available here in Canada. Trying to dl it right now with Assistant but it appears to be hung up.just got a network error message....standby. I’m assuming the servers must be really busy as my download has been stopped twice now with network error messages following. Once at 0% and one at...

    Firmware V01.00.0309

    I’m confused by this. What version of the app are you running? I got my iPad app updated earlier in the week. No firmware, but the app updated to 1.1.6 and includes the advanced gimbal settings.

    Firmware V01.00.0309

    I would tend to agree. I think removing side to side would be quite useful. I try not to use it almost all the time when I’m flying. So far I only use it for lining up for a landing. The ability to shut it off would make flight much easier for me. It’s a welcome option AFAIC.

    DJI Fly App 1.1.6 iOS

    I woke up this morning and it had auto updated. I’ll fly it in a bit and note any perceived differences.

    Can anyone tell me what this is?

    Yes, more to learn about but preferable To the stripes. Thank you.

    Can anyone tell me what this is?

    I understand that. I had never seen them before and was wondering why chunks of my fpv were striped out. Now that I know what they are, I can turn the warning back on and use them when/if I need.

    Very nice. Thanks so much for the quick lesson.

    Can anyone tell me what this is?

    Thanks, I just saw I had the overexposure warning on. I turned it off and they disappeared. Newbie here. Not sure when I turned it on.

    Can anyone tell me what this is?

    A couple days ago I started seeing patches of alternating black and white lines immediately upon connection. When I fly it seems to randomly show these lines on the ground, buildings, sky, etc... If I take pictures, the Pictures look normal. It’s just on my FPV. I’m using a new iPad mini 5. I’ve...

    Gimbal reminder idea

    That is smart thinking. I haven’t powered up, yet, without removing the cover, but I’ve caught myself a few times Close to it. I do use a checklist when I fly off my property, but not always while backyard flying.

    Ipad Mini 5

    Depending on your tablet holder, you may not even need a longer cable. I made a holder out of Velcro Hangables and the stock cable length is perfect, as is the angle of the tablet and it doesn’t interfere at all with the controls. The mini 5 seems plenty bright to me.

    iPad mini 5 capacity

    IMO...strictly for drone use, no. I‘d take that $100 and put it toward a personal cloud drive for photo/video storage (Buffalo 4 TB comes to mind). Then you can edit them from any device you want.
