ChrisV said:Ok, I installed everything, powered everything up and connected to software. I enabled the Gimbal. I tried to calibrate the X1 stick but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. I adjust the V1 and the camera stopped shaking as if it were having a seizure (jellowing?) It now sits there pointing up. When I adjust the lever on the transmitter the gimbal starts wigging out and points down then snaps back up again repeatedly. It also starts rolling left and right. I am using the FC40 camera with some zipties. I also added 20grams of weight. Any suggestions?
dragonash said:you need to use all 3 wires. Just one wont work for some reason.
Also, you will have to play with the numbers for pitch (Max/Center/Min)
There are no set numbers that work. The gimbal is really finicky and even when it does work, its more along the lines of having a little movement on the stick making the pitch move A LOT or a lot of movement on the stick making the pitch move a little.
BTW, I'm using the 3Axis walkera gimbal now. Same deal.

For pitch you only need one wire as explained
ChrisV said:The gopro weighs 74g. I re-evaluated the weight was able to rig up the camera to mach that of the gopro. It doesn't seem to be as jerky, but I am having a hard time tuning it in despite turning it on with the lever in the middle position I have messed with the v1 and v2 adjustment on the gimbal. On the software under the gain controlls everything is set for "INH" and at 125% except for yaw and vertical which is set for 100%. I have plugged in all kinds of different numbers to no avail.
When the phantom is stationary the camera sits still and I can control it with the lever. If move the phantom just a couple of inches the gimbal seems to hold its position. Once I start moving the phantom more than a couple of inches and the camera pivots to the stopping point which is only at about a 45degree angle down from straight ahead, the gimbal starts acting crazy and starts snapping up and down and side to side.
