Camera Gimbal Stabilisation

[robshaw]

Morning guys.
Having a problem with getting camera gimbal stabilisation working on my crius.

I';ve had it all working perfectly in the past but since making a few changes to my quad it seems to be dead.

The changes I made where a new RX and new firmware.

I don';t think the RX is the problem. Just connected as the old one was but I now have 2 spare channel which I have been using for head tracking.

Basically when I plug in my gimbal servo to either of the camera stabilisation channels they just appear to be dead.

In mission planner the stabilisation box is ticked. I';ve tried all the channels 8 - 11. Input channel disabled.
Im only using a single axis gimbal to stabilise my gopro in forward flight.

I think I must be missing something obvious I hope. Is there a setting in advanced params maybe?

Any help wish this would be most welcome.

Thanks.

Thanks.

So are you not plugging your servos into the gimbal ports?  Which physical ports have you plugged your servos into?

This what my settings look like...



and my servo is plugged into port 44.

Thanks.

So are you not plugging your servos into the gimbal ports?  Which physical ports have you plugged your servos into?

Pitch is in 44 (ch6), Roll in 45 (ch5)
I saw you tried ch 8-10, but did you try ch6 like I did?

I';ve just tried your settings. No luck.  I always thought that the way it worked was the output channels RC5 - RC11 related to the physical channels on the board?

So I was under the impression that port 44 was RC10 and 45 was RC11

RC5 = Motor Connection 6
RC6 = Motor Connection 7
RC7 = Motor Connection 8
RC8 = Motor Connection 9

RC10 = Motor Connection 44
RC11 = Motor Connection 45


And the INPUT channels are for adjusting the tilt angles which the board is stabilising.  And these relate to the inputs on the board.

TILT, ROLL and PAN are the 3 giros on the board. You can assign any servo output to any of the 3 axis gyros.......

But if you have channel 6 controlling port 44 then my theory goes straight out of the window....

Finally got it working.  It was on channel 6 or RC6. Ingnor the stuff on previous post. I had tried RC6 several times but for some reason its a bit hit a miss taking the change.  It may be because of the recent mission planner update. Im on 1.2.36.
Anyway, thanks for your help guys. Im happy now.
