<p>The camera angle setting in Betaflight is not commonly used but can be used to remix the controls into the axis of the camera. So roll would roll about the center of the camera view and yaw will keep the horizon flat. Essentially it would allow you to control the drone as if it were perfectly level while you are flying at the angle of the camera. Most people don't bother using it because it can cause bad flying habits. </p>

<p>What does the camera angle setting in betaflight effect?  Does it affect roles in acro?  Does it affect angle mode?</p>

<p>I feel like it's just a setting that does not affect my life.  Am I wrong?</p>

What does the camera angle setting in betaflight effect? Does it affect roles in acro? Does it affect angle mode?

I feel like it's just a setting that does not affect my life. Am I wrong?
