For those obsessed/annoyed with the cockeyed gimbal :)

This obsession actually included me. Those high-pitched, squealing gimbal noises also bother me but I digress. I was hunting down Solo / Hero 5 info and came across a snippet of the official 3DR Solo gimbal installation video on youtube under the misleading title 3DR Flight School - GoPro 5 Gimbal Modification. About 36 seconds into the video, you'll see the 3DR guy letting go of the gimbal and it coming to rest slightly rotated to the left as you're facing the drone. So, I guess the cockeyedness of the Solo gimbal is well... official. On a separate note, it cracks me up someone went through the trouble of doctoring the beginning of the video with Hero 5 visuals and voice.

do a level and sticks calibration and fly it
usually fixes most of the issues unless you have a bad gimbal
