Camera control help!

[big1kky]

Hello Guys.

I am new to this forum and brought my first aircraft about 2 weeks ago (Phantom 3 Standard). This may be a very stupid question but I cannot seem to figure it out. How can i turn the camera to the left and right? I can make it go up and down with the gimbal dial and with the DJI GO app but not left and right. I took it out for my first flight over the weekend and I'm sure I managed to do it then by swiping left and right on the DJI GO app but i have just tried to do it again after the latest update whilst the aircraft was stationery and I have had no luck. Any help will very much be appreciated

You can not turn the camera left or right. You need to turn the bird left or right to make camera turn.

Ahhhh, that would make much more sense, thank you very much for clearing that up!

Welcome to the forum the both of ya's
Is called yaw .

I just ordered my Standard on Friday and waiting for it to arrive but I've done a ton of research and seen a lot of videos. One thing I really like about the yaw is that the gimbal makes the camera follow the turn a little slower than the aircraft for a nice smooth turn. Same with with any other move with the aircraft. I like the fact that you only have control of the up and down because it would be a lot of finger work to fly and control every move of the camera.

Yes that is very true, good luck with your standard! It is a great piece of kit

The worst part is the wait. Especially since I bought it over Labor Day weekend. It's been 3 days already and it won't ship til tomorrow. From Florida to NY
