My gimbal is not responding and in my Vision Asst. (3.8) I can't seem to figure out how to calibrate it.  Any help out there?

Connect to thr RC assistant and check the upgrade version, then the start calibration button on left for the sticks and the start button on the right for thumbwheel camera gimbal calibration

did you select the "upgrade version" like the first photo circled?

Yup, now click start on the right one.  Your Phantom is turned on with the props off, right?

Yes, above is the image when completed.

What happens when you click the "stick monitor" start button?  and is your Phantom also powered up with the props off?

When I click start the X1 slider turns red but does not move, then click finish and all is the same.

when you click start, move the thumb wheel all the way in both directions.

PV2+ is on, rotors off. When the start for the sticks is activated the sliders turn red but do not move in response to moving sticks.

What do you have plugged into the computer,  the tx or the Phantom?
I think I am having memory loss,  the Phantom has to be plugged in to the computer, not the controller.

To begin again, transmitter, wifi extender and PV2are powered on.  Just tried again and had success. Thank you so very much for coming to my aid again.  What are you flying and for how long?

I have 2 phantom 2 vision plus and one of them has the v3 transmitter.  Been flying these for a year now.  When you turn the wheel, is the camera smooth going from horizontal to vertical?

These are Gertrude and Heathcliff.

Pans down very quickly and up slow and smooth.

You can also pan down slowly with just a little pressure on the wheel.

With the flint wheel only one speed no matter how much the wheel is turned, however, through the Vision App it moves slower but at only one speed and again slower when tilting upwards.

Try this calibration page,  it makes things a lot smoother and more reliable, just read through it first to understand the steps,  it's a full calibration of the sticks AND thumbwheel,

follow this page without having anything connected to the computer, but everything powered on.

Sweet set up you have with your birds. Where did you get the tablet mounts and sun screens?

Ebay,  the tablets are both modified for maximum memory.
