No issues so far. But only three flights.

so heres my update.....horizon was off because camera is not snug on the gimbal....in fact one side was not even in the track.....so i slid the camera off hoping to put it back on more securely and it is not....is there a trick to putting the camera back on? i am sorry i even touched it now, but was afraid to fly it anymore with the fear that it would just fall off the gimbal.....i get it on but no click and it still feels loose to me....maybe i should just call yuneec????

I have experienced a tilted horizon in my footage. I have had mine in for repair 3 times now and still get it. Were you able to fix your issue?

I have recently attached the CGO3+ to my ActionCam handheld to see if the gimbal tilt is level using that and I found that it does the same thing, so I am guessing it is the camera that is bad in my situation.

Hard time finding this thread... I experienced this balance/tilt issue this last weekend. Taped a penny on the sagging side for a quick fix. Have you resolved the tilt issue?
