I have searched the DJI manual, watched the DJI tutorials, both are very vague in anything! I've searhed youtube where I can find instruction, but, nothing on calibrating the gimble. In the GO 4 app it does give you the option to calibrate the gimble but how it is done is beyound me. I must be overlooking something in my advanced years. Please help out an old pilot in his quest.....you can send money too...I woun't  mind.

Tap on the 3 dots in the upper right corner, tap on the icon second to the bottom that looks like a camera with a line above it (gimbal), tap on Adjust Gimbal. You can then adjust pitch and roll.  On my drone the horizon was always slightly off so I was able to adjust the roll to make the horizon level.  You can adjust this airborne, too, when you have an actual horizon.

Im looking for what do you do after you tap the adjust gimble button. Do to tilt the drone, and if you do, what are you looking for? Do I adjust the horizon with the lines in the screen?

Have your drone on a level surface like a rectangular table so you can see through the camera a straight edge in front of you...like the table edge or where the wall meets the floor out ahead of you.  Maybe even call up grid lines in camera menu, settings.  Then go to the gimbal menu and tap pitch or roll to make it blue (selected) and tap on the left or right circular arrow to increase or decrease the correction until the grid lines show what you want. Then tap complete.

It's just another case of not providing us with enough written guidance.  They ought to have a DJI Go 4 manual out...not a couple of paragraphs in the Spark Manual.  Plus, when info is provided on DJI Go 4, it's not aircraft specific so the info provided might not pertain to your Spark.
