Camera tilt doesn't stop

[liamus27]

Has anyone had this issue...if I tilt the camera down in flight it doesn't stop when I release the wheel on the controller. Tilting up seems fine?

Try recalibrating your remote controller in DJI GO.

Will try this and report back. Thanks

 

[liamus27]

Sorry for slow reply. This didn't fix it...any other suggestions?

What exactly happens when you release the wheel after tilting the camera?

 

[liamus27]

The camera continues to tilt all the way to the furthest point

Did you try decreasing the Gimbal Pitch Smoothness setting in the following section of DJI GO?

 

[liamus27]

No....Will try thank you. However it doesn't happen every time...

Long time I know but have been away - came back to flying recently and it reminded me of this fault that I never resolved!
Anyway - it's not a software issue, it's a hardware one as I can now see that when I tilt the gimbal down the wheel on the controller (sometimes) gets stuck in place - only lightly but enough to stay down and continue moving the camera! Any suggestions or similar experiences!?

May be that the controller just needs the wheel replaced or just cleaned. I had one that the opposite wheel (right side) was very loose. Took it apart and reset the detent spring and solved that issue.

Thanks - I have reported it to DJI as it should still be under warranty so hopefully they can fix it

I had that issue just recently on a new mavic pro but it was the EV wheel stuck and it rendered my first ever drone flight footage useless as the saved video was all white haha Far out $1400 drone.
Plus it made it a bit harder to fly the **** thing as I could not see anything on my tablet.

I have the same issue.
Did you have a chance from dji support?
