Hello wrathofkhan, does this issue still exist after imu calibration and gimbal calibration? It would be better if you could post a pic here

this is a well documented issue on the P4, mine has a tilted horizon about 50% of the time. regardless of IMU and gimbal calibration. this is what mine looks like when its messed up.


Very annoying, now what i do is fly up a couple hundred feet when i start a flight and manually adjust the gimbal.

I calibrate my imu and gimbal and compass everyday. and I will randomly will get tilted horizon. It is definitely something that needs to be fixed.

With the gimbal noises and so on people are reporting and various non alignment to the horizon issues, it could be that there is a manufacturing issue in the gimbal assembly. It seems to me that the gimbal drive does not have enough torque to overcome even a small amount of binding.. This binding might be temperature sensitive, or maybe some residue left over from manufacturing that has some scratchiness to it, so sometimes the gimbal can align properly and sometimes its just stuck at certain points. Just a thot...

I have the same problem. I calibrated my IMU 5 times, but again when I start to fly, I have to adjust Gimbal horizon every time. one to two stops each time.

Also, let me mention that, even after IMU calibration when I try to do Gimbal calibration on leveled surface, calibration fails. And I read on forum that I am not alone with this problem. I think should be fixed already.
