    Gimbal calibration issues - roll left down

    An additional element I'm seeing as I view the footage is that the first clip has the horizon dead level, the second clip starts a little off and gets worse, third clip a little worse etc etc. It's as if the error compounds itself.

    Typhoon H slowly descending while hovering

    When I first received mine, it did the same thing, also drifted right frequently. I found that a careful update of all the firmware to what was the latest, plus a careful calibration in open space solved it totally. I'm having issues right now after 12 months of ownership, but I find many things...

    Gimbal calibration issues - roll left down

    Further to my last post, my gimbal still gives issues. Starts up and achieves horizon just fine. As soon as you begin manoeuvring, it steadily rolls left horizon down by around 20 degrees. Stop to a hover, it gradually rolls level. Start flying again, it loses the level horizon. I've had this...

    CG03 Gimbal calibration very slow after storage

    Thanks, I did notice that it was at the extremes of travel that it sat stationery. Never had any issues before in over 12 months of use. NW

    CG03 Gimbal calibration very slow after storage

    Bizarrely, that cured it. Thank you.

    Screws for arm clip issue

    Thanks. I agree, not perfect, but the alternative appears to be another new arm. They're fiddly to fit the wires through! Will work on the idea of a larger screw,...

    CG03 Gimbal calibration very slow after storage

    Two posts in as many minutes today! I've not used my Typhoon H in a few weeks. Flew last night and the gimbal was hopelessly out on the horizon. Tried a calibration on location, but it just locked up. Today, took it to my preferred place for a full calibration, accelerometer etc. All OK, apart...

    Screws for arm clip issue

    A while ago, I had a dynamic roll over and damaged an arm. I replaced everything needed and it's been fine since. Today, the small screw holding the arm clip in place came out. When I tried to replace it with the spare, it just drops inside the arm socket. I've two questions: 1. What are anyones...

    Turning off follow / watch in Smart mode - brain fade

    Thank you, Craig. Hence the reason why I couldn't find a way :-) NW

    Turning off follow / watch in Smart mode - brain fade

    I'm having a blonde moment right now. Happy to fly the H in either Smart or Angle mode, more often Angle, but I've found that in Smart mode, Follow / Watch is turned on. I can toggle between the two, but can't see how to turn it off! I'm sure it's an RTFM problem, but can't find it in the...

    Motors not idling when landing

    Mine's ben fine today apart from the motor idling issue. I guess I might need to throw a spirit level into the back pack, as I'm reading that they're critical on being very level for accelerometer. It's like setting up a racing car :-)

    Motors not idling when landing

    Thanks, guys, will try both of those. It's just had all the firmware updated, so perhaps calibration needs more attention from me. Neill W

    Motors not idling when landing

    New to Typhoon H ownership, though I have test flown one before. All seems fine with mine, apart from one issue. When landing, it's a little bouncy, but not too bad. More importantly, the motors don't go to idle when it's on the surface and the left stick fully down. This means that it begins to...
