Hello! I’ve used Pix4D as a trial to try and generate a 3D “corridor map” of an air conditioning duct I flew my micro drone through. I got some good footage, ran it through Pix4D but the XYZ orientation was wrong.

This was my first attempt:

When I try and change the orientation, I lose my triangular meshes and I can’t get them back. Please see this screenshot:
