Hi Guys,
I've the drone since yesterday and everything was fine, just check all  the functions and read the manual few time and watching the tutorial
Also yesterday I did the Drone upgrade and the remote upgrade Aircraft 1.9.60 and remote 1.6.0
Today just before try a small flight I notice that the gimbal pointing  the camera totally down.. I did already the IMU  / Compass calibration  but nothig change.. still pointing down.
Even I try to move left - right the gimbal moves just a little bit.
I switch several times the mode from Follow to FPV but nothing change.
I need really help.

Thank you

Moving it left or right will not work, the aircraft has to be moved or yawed to move the camera. The camera should do a little dance when it starts and finish up with the camera pointing ahead.

If this has happened after you did a firmware upgrade, then it is most like a case of the gimbal firmware upgrade was not successful. An upgrade consists of a number of sections, there is one for the gimbal, so I would do the aircraft upgrade again and see if it cures the problem. It may be necessary to downgrade the aircraft and then upgrade it again,.

OK, in that case you should return it to where you bought it and ask for an exchange with another one.

Meh, your choice. But why not simply get it replaced? You pay for a warranty, and it is there to use.

Hello Pagana, before you send it in, you can replug the 6pin and 8pin cables and then re-upgrade the drone again. 6pin和8pin线.JPG
