In the RC tab, these are the settings that I set to get straight down travel. Have not flown it yet but it works desk flying...

Very nice video Piranah! Can ya help me out? I messed up my settings in the "RC SETTINGS" page. Can you send me a screen shot of yours so I can reset it? Also, please send your latest basic page so I can compare it to mine. Thanks!! Barry

Piranah, Some how, while trying to increase down travel, I lost my manual control of the camera, that is, I cannot tilt it via my ipad mini. It reacts to drone movement okay. I think I might of messed up a setting in advance in the simple bgc software. Can you screen shot for me the advance...

Here are my settings that I used for the last video. Still need to trim more off the top of the camera so it doesn't hit. Also, how can I adjust the pitch travel? I would like to reduce the up travel and increase the down. When I tilt it in the house, it will go straight down but in flight it...

Piranah, Here is the new video after making software changes. Almost got it. Will post my settings soon. You can see at the end, the top of the camera hits the CF mounting plate & flops. I trimmed it but will have to do a bit more. I was pushing the limit on the PV2 to see if it would clear...

Thanks Piranha, will give it a go. Happy Fathers Day!! Barry

It is a separate program to control the gimbal. Google simple bgc and download the software. You will also need the virtual comm port driver to go with it. There are 2 so get the one that pertains to your system. Barry

Here is the screen shot of my settings.

So, here is the video of my first flight with the Cyclops gimbal & Pirahana's settings... Not good... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V1xFmS ... e=youtu.be Hope the link works.

Wires & jack don't hit but, found that the tilt motor wires are bare where they cross over the motor support arm. (Correction... Not tilt motor wires. Wires go to a small aluminum box under the camera mount.)Will put some silicone on them to seal them. Flew the PV2 and the top left of the camera...

Piranha, Will install the props and take it out. Desk flying does go to extremes... Will let you know. Thanks again for being the first to try this and the posting of your settings. Any suggestions on the full down jitters?

Installed the cyclops today and it went well but when I loaded the settings from the prior installers, I get a few problems. I matched the settings exact but, when I tilt the PV2 to the left as facing it, the RH top of the camera hits the CF mounting plate and the camera drops 90degs. to the...

I went to Heli World's site and they no longer list the Cyclops gimbal. I did though find that this site, RC Depot in California has them in stock. I called and talked to them. They don't know much about the gimbal as they just got them in 3 days ago and have not sold any yet. They have them...

Got the sticker for the PV2 coated and stuck. Picture is a tad blurry. Should of used the flash... Gonna go online and try to find some WWII nose art to print up next. Barry

Not to step on any toes of the forum members selling stickers but, I bought some water-resistant vinyl sticker paper on line that you can print on your ink jet printer. After you print what you want, you spray a clear acrylic from a rattle can, let it dry over night and you have a sticker of...
