Hey, guys.
I, too, am a relative newbie to the world of quadcopters, but I'm completely hooked. I have the Tarot gimbal installed in standalone mode right now and I'll be hooking up the tilt function this weekend when I have some free time.
This is the information that I gleaned from the various threads and forums about using the tilt function with the stock DJI transmitter:
You will need to get 3 wired Connections. You can use Standard servo cables, or you can crimp your own ones.
C will need to go to F1 bottom (signal) (you can skip this cable if you just want Rate Mode)
T will need to go to F2 bottom (signal)
(-) will Need to go to a – (use the one in the Center row so you can use the other one to power your GoPro straight from the T-2D gimbal board)
Now you will also need to change some Settings in the Naza control Software. These Settings might need to be slightly different on your Setup, depending on how you set the Parameters in the ZYX-BMGC-EN V1.0.exe Software, which you will need to Change Parameters on the gimbal board.
I set the gimbal for a max of 90 degrees movement. So it will never turn up to the Rotors or backwards.
My Naza Settings are:
Servo Travel Limit
Pitch F2 Max 1000, Center 0, Min -1000
Roll F1, Max 50, Center 50, Min 0
Automatic Control Gain
Pitch F2, 0.00
Roll F1, 0.00
Manual Control Speed
Pitch X1, 10
When everything is setup like this, the gimbal should behave like in the Video bellow.
