This is a how to video. The important thing is that it teaches, not look glitzy. No production needed.
I agree, not supposed to be a Hollywood production, just a Youtube how-to video, I wouldn't spend much time in Final Cut working on it either.ResevorDG said:

What's this video got to do with the Vision Gimbal ? The vision gimbal is simple to install. The video was for installing on a Phantom I believe. That is more complicated.

Look man, you have gone from expressing concern to being rude.
This video is a how to on a product that is no longer offered precisely because it was too complex for most people.
Please be more respectful.

No reaction ?
Nobody would like to run a real transparent project, with infos, photos, videos, dates, and open mind, with as goal, a "open" gimbal, with free files to print, or gimbal at good price ?
it can be a good challenge to make it run BEFORE the 30 card day of the actual order ! 11 feb + 30 days = 11 march...
Nobody want to make challenge to make a real gimbal before 11 march ? It run before, we cancel RP order (if not received), and run to own gimbal ?
It's strange, i've got no reaction !! is my message displayed on forum ? i see sometimes 10+ msg about video lenght, but no reaction to mine ! ...
It's a great idea for a project, but I'm guessing that, like me, a lot of people bought the Vision precisely because it was an out-of-the-box turnkey solution with minimal, if any, electronics or engineering experience required to get going. If you are of that ilk and you now want more stability in your Vision footage, as I do, then you're probably also in the market for an out-of-the-box turnkey gimbal solution, too. This may explain why you haven't had a lot of people wanting or being able to chime in.
Don't let that stop you, though!

Do you have access to a 3D printer and the skills to make a 3D model of a base plate for the FC200 for testing purposes? If so, start a new topic on the subject, an see if we can get something going. I am no fan of a date, that puts RotorPixel out of business. If you want to start a project, it should be because you want to make your own gimbal, not because you can't get the RotorPixel gimbal fast enough. Maybe people are a bit put off by the large amount of users just demanding stuff, without any input?

I ordered one of the items you listed and it should be at my home Friday (I am in Norway at the moment and return to the US tomorrow). The first thing I will do is replace the PLA parts with ABS or Nylon. I also ordered one of these to play with (http://www.ebay.com/itm/261365899387?ss ... 1497.l2649). I want to see how well the 3rd axis works.
Part of my reason for doing this is that I have a trip to Oregon followed by another trip to Norway and want to have a gimbal ready to go. Even though I am order # 348, I am not certain I will receive my Rotorpixel gimbal in time. I have confidence in the Rotorpixel guys I just am trying to meet a short-term need.
when I put the youtube link up showing the potorpixel gimbal it was only to show the fact the they did make gimbal. Having said that after reading the comments about the quality of the video makes me think back to when I ask about the test video footage which keri had not wanted to show as he said he wanted to show a well produced video and as repeatedly said since. I can understand him wanting to show the new gimbal in the best possible way with some good video footage which is ironic really given the fact that the how video is not that good and not of someone wanting to showcase the product.
I know I will flack for saying this but its just my opinion.

We must have a name for this syndrome, something like Gimbalitis or....?

@teji, you've gone off-topic. If you're serious about starting a Group Gimbal Project for the Vision then do it by posting a new topic instead of hijacking the RotorPixel thread. I'm sure there are folks out there that will take an interest and will want to ask you questions. If you contribute & coordinate to the project you could very well get it done.
Good luck,

@shawn, same thing... your vid is OT and has little to do with RotorPixel for Vision, but tnx fer tryin'
@Seahorse, gimballite like cellulite... excess unnecessary hanging skin, unattractive, & otherwise just occupying valuable space and hanging onto strong bones, and you know Ronco will have one any day now.
