Torn between two brushless gimbals:-

(may be a bit heavy)

or

lighter but twice the price.

Any thoughts?

first one looks similar to rctimer one, but with the single arm.

I';ve got a single arm carbon one (search ebay for phantom brushless gimbal), but found it pretty crap - the motors are just too small to control it properly - once flying it just continually loses it, and starts flicking about all over the place. I';ve about given up with it.

the rctimer one on the other hand, is solid.

that phantom one you link too looks like similar sized motors, so could have same problems ?

the rctimer one is a bit heavier, but I wonder if the double axis helps it too ? Both are around the same price - but at least loads of folk are using the rctimer one, so lots of forum support, etc.

It looks like the first one doesn';t come with controller (is in one picture but not in the picture showing the contents of what you get) - so you';d have that to add on.

personally I';d say go for the rctimer one instead of either of these + either their controller or an alexmos job.
