Review

Use Rocker Switch R2 (no. 5 in figure above) to navigate.
Adjust
Horizon
Occasionally the neutral position of the Gimbal's Servo Motors
might need to be re-adjusted. Use this command to adjust the
horizon (roll angle) while flying. If the system is still on the
ground and the motors are not running this can also be done in
both axes (roll and tilt) with the control sticks. see “Adjusting the
camera horizon” on page 37.
Roll Comp.
On/Off
Default = ON.
When Roll Comp. = Off the gimbal will no longer compensate
roll movements of the Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAV.
This can be useful when doing dynamic video flights.
