    Any idea why a well balanced setup boots up with the camera tilt at -20° to -10°? In magestic angle mode and resting on the ring feet.

    Even with a window of 1 I have to tilt up quite a bit on the ring to get up to 0°
    I've tried applying default settings. I'm not sure if I am missing a calibration or centering step somewhere.

    Posting a video demo would be most useful!

    Justin: I just did a short experiment. I powered up the MoVI Pro and did an autotune of 70% with it resting on its feet (ordinarily I would tune it while supporting it how I was planning to use it, but this was just a test).

    The gimbal went to 0 degrees tilt.

    I then powered up a MoVI controller and tilted the gimbal/camera down to -10 degrees and powered off the MoVI controller. The camera stayed tilted -10 degrees and I could pick up the gimbal and tilt the camera up and down using the MoVI ring. However, the camera would return to -10 degrees when the MoVI Pro was resting on its feet.

    I then powered off the MoVI Pro, paused for 15 seconds and powered it back up -- the camera remained tilted down -10 degrees -- so it maintains state across a power cycle

    Is there a chance that you did something similar to my experiment?

    Cheers
    Andy
