I received my Vision2+ on 12-1-14.  The gimbal worked as expected.  After a few days I installed the RC System Assistant and the Phantom 2 Vision Assistant.   After going through all the option and upgrading/calibrating things I noticed the camera did not respond as expected.   It’s a long story but it’s response was a mess!  

I was about to try to send the thing back but before I did, I spent several hours on the forums and youtube trying to find an answer.  AND I DID!  The error is in the documentation!

In the RC Assistant and in the document on this page http://forum.dji.com/forum.php?m ... age%3D1&lang=en THEY NEVER TELL THE USER TO MOVE THE GIMBAL CONTROL WHEN DOING THE CALIBRATION.  A new user like myself, follows the instructions word for word, so I never touched the gimbal control when performing the calibration.  After hours of trying to figure out this problem, it is a simple omission in the documentation.   I ran the RC assistant again and when doing the calibration adjustment, I also moved the gimbal control from full clockwise to full counterclockwise several times.  

PROBLEM SOLVED!

Moved the Control Before, During or After Calibration?

During the calibration
