Hello, I would like to show how broken the FPV mode is compared to Osmo Pocket 1. In Osmo Pocket 1 FPV mode works perfectly - as it should. Osmo pocket 3 has trouble maintaining the horizon. After tilting the gimbal to the right or left and then returning to horizontal, the image is still tilted, which is not the case in Osmo Pocket 1. Both cameras have "slow follow" set. After setting it to "fast follow", it is only slightly better and Osmo Pocket 3 still does not center properly. Additionally, there is also an issue with "recenter gimbal" which looks like it has tilt-lock. DJI, please fix FPV mode. In the older generation it worked flawlessly, but in Osmo Pocket 3 it is useless.

Same issue for me after testing

Yeah, that issue needs to be fixed. Hopefully, DJI will be able to fix this in an expeditious manner.  

Well, they should be able to fix a gimbal.  They've marketed a few...

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out. Upon further investigation, this is caused by different gimbal logic. The following speed of DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is normally slower than the Osmo Pocket/Pocket 2 mainly to make the shooting more stable (cover some intense sports scenes and make the picture smoother, therefore it adjusted slowly). You may adjust the following speed to "fast" to check if this suits your needs. We appreciate your understanding and support.

It seems like you didn't actually watch his video describing his problem because he adjusted the following speed to fast on both devices at 1:27...

Hi DJI Paladin. I think you are wrong. Different gimbal logic is not a problem here. If it rotated at the same speed as now, but maintained the angle at which the camera was held, everything would be OK. However, at this point, Osmo Pocket 3 cannot maintain the angle at which the camera is held. I did one more test - this time with Ronin RSC2. I turn both devices 90 degrees and return to the horizon. Osmo Pocket 3 is not able to set the horizon well. Ronin RSC2 does it perfectly. Below I am sending a video of the test. And sorry for my imperfect English in the video - I'm learning Unfortunately, crackling noises with Osmo Action 2 - I have to send it for replacement under Care Refresh

We - users - see this problem like a faulty. But dji engineers see this is a function. i have told this problem to 2 youtubers tell a lot of good things about pocket 3, but no one reply. Thank you so much for making this thread !

Thank you for sharing these tests, Thevion. I will make sure to note this as a suggestion and will forward it to our designated team for future consideration. We appreciate your understanding.

I hope they have fixed this by now.

Nope, unfortunately in firmware 01.03.05.02 the FPV mode is still broken

That is too bad.
They still have 2 years to fix it (or maybe a bit longer) before my budget is sufficient ...

The same issue here. (Newest firmware)

The new update v01.04.0802 adds a new FPV+ mode that fixes the problem I described.  It also fixes the gimbal centering problem @9OcO7RlPocL4 wrote about.  Thank you DJI!
