Hi Elsmeghead (Liverpool by any chance ?)
That's interesting to see. Thinking back to my incident it was very similar with camera pointing lower right and video feed going blank, and as I discovered later the video had stopped recording.
I completed all calibrations after the updates, I was using an iPad Pro 9.7 as display.
I had assumed at the time it was a glitch, and after 90 minutes of test flying that seemed to be the case as it was the only event. But it seems odd that the same seems to be happening to a number of people, or at least a few have been aware of it. I'm keeping an open mind on this. Since then I have completed one more IMU calibration, and will be keeping an eye on it.
If you've not calibrated yet then perhaps that might help, this is the routine I use :-
1) Sensors (Using DJI Assistant 2 v1.1.2-2, latest version), usually done just after update on Assistant 2.
2) IMU (level surface, make sure it's had time to cool down if it's been powered up, say half an hour at lowest ambient temperature, a cool evening or air conditioned room below 10 degrees C helps). Edit:- Using the newer '3D' IMU calibration routine, my last two IMU calibrations have been done at about 20C ambient air temperature. The subsequent IMU warm up time when aircraft is first powered up and initialising does not seem to have been adversley affected, and warm up time is a few seconds at most.
3) Gimbal (just after IMU).
4) RC sticks (with aircraft off).
5) And compass (in an open area (not over steel reinforced concrete), away from ferrous materials or electromagnetic interference). Get one good calibration, and that should be all that is needed until informed by system or erratic flying that needs investigation. Note that any ferrous metals very close to legs (steel frame in desk, cutlery in kitchen drawer, windowsill strengthening etc) will generate a 'compass error', this does not mean compass needs recalibration. just move the aircraft away from source of interference.
