    When I power up my radians and go into stabilization mode, my roll axis is not level. Can someone tell me the proper way to have it referencing level correctly when its in stabilization mode?

    Guys here's some pics for you to see. Let me know if you think the position of my roll radian isn't correct. Or if I need to adjust the software.

    Your Radian is not mounted parallel to the horizontal. Either correct that or use angle trim as per above

    I would suggest correcting the position of the Radian. Did you mount it using the double side foam tape that they came with? Not sure what the zip tie is for in your photos. If the zip is the only thing holding the Radian then your angles will constantly be changing as the Radian moves around. The Radian needs to be securely mounted

    The zip tie is only there in case the sticky tape loses its adhesive.
