This is the first time I've flown since downloading the new firmware so it may be related to that but have not had this issue before the upgrade.

I flew maybe a dozen times this weekend and every time but once I've had the image transmission cut out on me for about 2 seconds with no warning of interference or a weak signal. The video will return but the camera gimbal is tweaking all over the place for about another 5 to 10 seconds trying to get its bearings. It's terrifying losing signal and especially when you get your signal back and the horizon is slanted. Luckily this has not impacted the flight but it has created a ton of anxiety when I fly. This occurred in an area where I've flown multiple times before without interference so I don't think that's the issue. I'm trying to pin down the cause and find some resolution so I don't have to worry about this. Has anyone else had this issue???

Several have reported the gimbal reinitializing mid-flight, which is what your reporting sounds like to me. Luckily I haven't experienced that, but you might search the forum for the reports. I think it's likely that folks are going to recommend calibrating your gimbal and/or refreshing your firmware. Hope this helps some.

Thanks, yeah, that's exactly what it sounds like. I'll search the forum.

Do an 'AUTO GIMBAL CALIBRATION' and see how it goes.
