All -
I've looked through the various threads in this sub-forum but haven't seen anything that jumps out as what I'm seeing - hopefully someone here will be able to suggest something as I'm at my wits end with this issue.
I purchased a P2 NV (early version) from a coworker that already had the Zenmuse H3-2D gimbal installed.
Unfortunately, I crashed it on my 1st flight and have slowly been getting it back together to the condition in which
I got it from him. The last issue remaining is that of the Zenmuse H3-2D gimbal - no matter the position of the
gimbal switch on the back of the transmitter/controller, I cannot get it to point straight down - stops approximately 10-20 degrees from it. I suspect the issue started when, in the process of upgrading ALL the
firmware on the RC and P2, I recalibrated the transmitter. If I have the P2 NV connected to the PC and am using the DJI Phantom 2 Vision Assistant Software version 3.6 OR 3.8, I see the full range of value (+/- 1000) being shown for the X1 channel readout screen - but, the gimbal will not point straight down still - it will tilt up further "above the horizon" than I think it should. I have read that you need to calibrate the gimbal first in the DJI RC assistant software - which I have done, and THEN calibrate it in the DJI P2 Assistant software - however, I cannot find where to do so within that software. The "gimbal" page in that software only corresponds to the H3-D3 model and allegedly has nothing to do with my model.
When I'm calibrating it in the DJI RC assistant software, moving the gimbal lever on the back of the transmitter/controller has it tilting just a small amount and the corresponding X1 channel readout is something along the lines of -47 to 250...instead of the +/- 1000 that you would come to expect...
Any ideas? And no, I would prefer not to upgrade to the H3-3D model....Thanks!
