just curious because the manuals don't really touch on this. I can't turn my camera from left to right. It seems like it wants to, as in it moves very little. It looks straight, and down with ease with the top left rc wheel, and even tilts diagonally as a confused pup does, even when calibrated or turned on the camera moves full motion just no side to side...am I missing something???

The camera can only move the smallest amount left-right, and that is a software compensation to help with image stability, not something you can control.  Unlike the DJI Inspire, which can lift its landing gear out of the panning axis field of view and thus enable the motion you refer to, our P3 landing gear is fixed, thus allowing a pan only by rotating the entire aircraft along the horizon.  

So, are you missing something? No.  You can still do just about everything the Inspire does but using a different approach.

Phantom camera gimbal doesn't have YAW, and what you was describing up there is just to make the turns lookng more smooth in a video

I find a smooth touch with Yaw to be one of the most difficult things about filming with the P3P. So far I find it next to impossible to make a smooth panning gradually starting the rotation and slowing it down so its smooth. Premiere Pro helps but hopefully its just a matter of practice and talent to be able to do it with the machine itself.

You can adjust the Yaw speed movement with the App. It can be very smooth.

Gain adjustments help but don't cure my out of control movements.    Practice practice practice.
