jimfrost got a reaction from phil_r in Stiching panoramas - horizon not straight
Thanks for the reply and I have attached some low resolution shots of what I mean. The first shot is the "in-drone" processed panorama.
This one is the 21 raw files brought into Affinity Photo Beta and stitched.
There is a fair bit of cropping going on I know from the in drone conversion but you can see the "bending" effect on the horizon from the Affinity stitch.
Thanks again for any assistance!

When I've had curved horizons (whether from stitching panoramas, or from lens distortion) I've used the Mesh Warp tool very successfully. It's simple, but it's destructive, so you might want to do it on a duplicated layer. See the short video below...

So, I didn't initially realize that the top picture was pre-processed by the drone, and the bottom picture was the one you were having problems with. I have never had Affinity Photo do this to a panorama, but I also have ZERO experience with drone photography, and perhaps this is part of the problem.
Nonetheless, you can still use the Mesh Warp tool to correct that unfortunate bend on the right side (and could apply it in multiple places, if the situation warranted it):
