Why was there no example footage? I think if you would have added a short, 5 second clip, demonstrating how the horizon line looked before an IMU calibration, and another clip afterward, this would have made a lot more sense. Love your channel. Huge Drone U fan. This one just kind of fizzled for me.
IMU calibration did not fix mine. I also tried compass calibration and gimbal calibration. I’m flying a two year old Mavic. I think it’s just old.
Too much talk no actual solution or example on solving the problem. I did everything you said and it is still the same.
I did a IMU calibration and it did not fix….any suggestions?…. What part should I replace?
