Horizon Crooked on Mavic 3

[visualsbypedro]

I’ve had my Mavic 3 for about a month. It flys great, beautiful quality but one thing is really bothering me and it’s how crooked the horizon is. Yeah, I can edit that in post but for a 2200.00 drone, this shouldn’t be an issue. Does anyone else have this issue or had the issue and if so, have you found a fix for it? E

This is the MINI 3 section.

I didn’t move this here, the admins did, I actually want to delete it but not sure how.

Have you calibrated the gimbal? It's on the Control tab of the Fly app menu. There's an auto calibration that you can use on the ground with the drone on a level surface and a manual calibration that you can use in flight.

Contact any mod for deletion, as to your problem the gimbal horizon is tied directly into the IMU and it's Calibration, so might want to do one of those. You also have manual control of Gimbal horizon in App..might want to research features and how to do that. IF no luck I would send it back and request repair replace, you may have got a bit of a lemon unfortunately.

So, apparently, I didn't realize how off-centered my garage was, did it on my kitchen counter using a leveler, and boom, it's been fixed. Thanks all!

I am not sure about this but it has been reported (not specifically for the Mavic 3 but all drones from DJI), that you lift off from a place that is quite uneven, these deviations can happen. In DJI Fly you however can tilt the horizon manually too while in flight.

Normally it should level upon start up with the gimbal dance.
