    Hi all, I am looking for GoPro gimbal suggestions for a SunnySky X2212 KV980-powered Electrohub tricopter (3S 4000mAh). This will need to mount on the FT FPV Rail System. Certainly this has been covered before, but there is always some new offering, and I'm confused because some of them...

    Tarot 2 axis Gimbal Testing

    Here is my first video using the Tarot 2D gimbal. This is mounted horizontally on the front of my Cinetank Mk2. The gimbal is working pretty well so far and really smooths out the video. I am running a seperate FPV camera (Fatshark 600TVL) so I can still see the quadcopter tilting, which means I...

    I just got the RTF gimbal from RTF quads ( http://www.readytoflyquads.com/rtf-all-in-one-gimbal ) It never worked from the start, it had a solid blue and red light and a blinking green. No other indications that it was plugged in, no motor sounds or movement at all. I downloaded the GUI and...

    Hi Guys, I have spent a lot of time trying to get the gimbal control to work via the APM2.6 and would like to share how I eventually got it working. I was using the RC channel directly from the reciever to the gimbal but the APM should support the gimbal pitch/roll natively but in the...

    Hubsan X4 Pro

    There may be a DJI Phantom competitor. Hubsan unveiled their X4 Pro at CES this year. They claim 40 minute flight times, although the guy in the video says 30, and full GPS functionality. It even has a 3-axis gimbal even though the landing gear does not retract...and the best part... it has an...

    Vibration Dampening Methods - Share Yours

    So far vibration dampening has been the number one enemy for me in this hobby. I have built quads that fly amazing (to me at least), but the part that always gets me is when it's time to isolate the camera from vibrations. I want to know what others are using as DIY vibration dampeners. I have...

I have experience with the classic X-configuration, but now I want more space for my camera gimbal mounted out front. My question is: what are the angles between the arms on a deadcat style frame. I...

    My Multirotor Story

    Right, so I am posting this about my latest tricopter build, based loosely off the great Windestål's design. Firstly I will say that I am 15, live in the UK, and am currently having my summer holiday. This build was completed to a massive budget, and in my mind was mostly an upgrade. I know this...

    FPV Camera Pitch Gimbal on a Miniquad

    When I choosing the frame for my F450, I was looking at a frame like this with a pitch/elevator gimbal for the FPV camera. However, I've been thinking about how it could be implemented on to a miniquad. BlackSheep's Gemini made me think about it again. It looks like the Gemini has motors...

    Naza-m v2 work as controller for non zenmuse gimbals?

    Been searching Internets for a while. Does anyone have any experience with using the naza as a controller for non zenmuse (h3-2d / h3-3d) gimbals? Not sure if it really can do other gimbals and nobody has documented it yet or just bad advertising on non US websites.
