24 hour after a crash onto water I saved my P4, cleaned and dried it.
  
It suprised me,  almost everyting seems to be working nice exept for the gimbal.
  
In de video as you can see it’s not centrered, slightly turmed to right and it is shaky. Could anyone please tell me what’s wrong with it?
  
Maybe someone had the the same trouble and fixed it?
I've already did cold IMU clb, compass, calibrated the P4, but that seems to have nothing to do with the issue.

P4 Drony I know you said water but check gimbal isn't bent or moved off centre. I had a 'soft crash' and wondered why videos were not level. Turned out the impact must have been at just the right angle to bend the arm out of alignment.

The yaw arm isn't bent.
I would like to try to repair it by myself.
