I've got an issue since upgradeing my Version to 1.7.90 this afternoon, my App is 3.1.0 and my camera is about 45 degrees to the left. Everthing else seems fine, I also can't go back to the old firmware load.

Typical answers are - Have you calibrated camera / gimbal after upgrade ? Are settings in Go app correct ?

If yes and still offset. You can slack the little black grubscrew at top of camera arm and turn to align. Make sure arm is bedded to its bearing and screw tight when finished. But before doing this - check that gimbal has full operation ...

Just to clarify, have you already tried an IMU calibration, then a gimbal calibration in that order? How long have you had this unit?

Yes to both responses, except for manually moving the grubscrew.  It doesn't make any sense that a frimware upgrade should cause this issue?  Thanks for the advice. I'm going to try to get back to the older load just to see it fixes the issue.......  I hope........

I totally agree that a FW change should not cause this.

My suggestion of physical adjustment of the arm is a last resort if nothing else works.

It shouldn't cause this, could you happen to provide a small video of how it behaves if the issue persists?

Thanks Jamie,  Sorry for the delay but I was out of town for the holidays.  Here is the video you requested, also, as of today I can't manually adjust the cameras horizontal position, I could last week.  Is it possible to go back to the old firmware load?

I have just been victim for 2 days of the same anomaly, after 3 months of use and 4 to 5 hours of flight! Posts: - in the interface of DJI GO: no signal and - in the status of the device: camera disconnected. So I bring my drone to the seller. He will return to DJI, Switzerland. I'm waiting for the diagnosis.

It would be nice to share the solution so others might benefit, don't you think?
