I have a new Phantom 4 which flies normally but ever since the latest firmware upgrade, the camera faces down when the aircraft is initialized.  I tried a gimbal and IMU calibration but the camera still faces straight down when I launch.

Is this the intended setting or do I need to do something else to have the camera default to horizontal attitude?

Thanks!

Hello Marc, any video clip of this issue will be appreciated. Also, you can try to downgrade the firmware and then re-upgrade it. Thanks.

Well, I'm having the same issue here after the update.
Problem is, the camera doesn't go to default position unless I give a small push to it. It works normal though.
Here is a short video about the situation: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lfv9zc ... 719_191141.mp4?dl=0
I got the P4 for about a month and had no problems or crashes.
Any thoughts about it?

Thank you.

Can you try to reinstall the firmware to see if it helps.
If then then do a factory reset to see if it helps.
