I wanted a gimbal but not one that was worth more than my phantom, besides I would rather spend my money on new motors and such not a gimbal to keep the camera steady. So after reading all the confusion and complaints about the Ebay/Goodluckbuy gimbals I decided that it was worth a shot despite all negative I saw here.
I have to say I am very pleased with my results. The Gimbal came packed nicely in a box with everything I needed to get going. I had it hooked up and ready to go including tilt control in about 25 minutes. ( mainly due to the 4 screws near the landing gear, they are a pain to get out)
I have done 4 test flights and was very happy with the stability. It does jitter if you take it to far down but otherwise it works great. I used a small piece of 3M Velcro to hold on the FPV camera. ( I cant seem to get my go pro Hero 3+ to send video through the usb) and I can fly with my fatsharks and record what I am seeing with the gopro.
Bottom line if you are not looking to spend a lot on a gimbal then this is a great option. I can post the videos if you like though they are just flying around an athletic field.
