    mfabiz.. there was no manual written as such...... too much was changing all the time. On my site, there are a couple of starter tutorial videos where I talk about what the functions do.... etc. For new firmware I am making a nice PDF... and Videos from afresh. Alexei...OK.. Understand...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    Nice result AlexeiD ! Be careful not to overcompensate for slow servos, with too much Acceleration parameter. This might make the gimbal nervous in the air, IF , vibrations arrive to the gimbal. To remember...the Acceleration is guessing what the servo should do next, and is therefore troubled...

    XBee link speed is user definable.... 9600 is OK, even 4800. But you have to disable the graph :)

    Hi Fred, PID tuning while flying has been a feature I always wanted to have, and that's why I made Picloc speak to Jetibox. It has been a tough decision, because the jetibox protocol is only available to 8bit micro controllers... while Picloc is 32Bit. But I managed to do it even if the road...

    Hi Boys and Girls..... I'm at the deep end of coding again to bring you a hot new firmware. Some of you have given me some very good tips from a usability point of view, ( of which I'm very thankful ). Once again, emails are flooding, and I apologize for taking too long to reply. It's just...

    Hi Fredass.. yes.. there are some bugs..... ( also perhaps due to the addition of the autopano code )... the pan would sometimes... when there is not enough servo speed to catch up with an aggressive maneuver, go facing 180 degree offset, and oscillate vigourously within +-5 ->15 degrees...

    PANt, Servo is turning continuous because it is trying to compensate. If you lift the copter up from the ground, it should stabilize the Pan axis. That is why there is AUX 3 control... to stop the PAN axis stabilization when on the ground, so that the copter does not turn.

    Most welcome, Malc ! Hmm.... remembering a previous post deep down this thread..... @ the guy who has posted a video of Picloc behaving strangely in his room, camera pointed at the window... ( cannot find the video ) can you try the 8 steps that I mentioned above ? Thanks !!

    Hmmm..... Strange !!! Perhaps we can do a skype..... But let me finish the new firmware... I'll be uploading it over tomorrow to beta testers who emailed privately to get it and experiment and let me know of improvements to adapt. So far.. I am pretty confident with it. It is based on the v55...

    Hi Malcolm. Please do this to rule out any hardware issues with your Picloc. 1)Disconnect everything from Picloc, and remove it from your mount. 2)Put Picloc on a flat table , front panel facing ceiling. 3)Connect USB, and after started, perform a GYRO + Accelerometer calibration. ( GYRO X,Y,Z...

    Darko... Picloc-3X is programmed primarily with PiclocToolz, running on a Windows PC/Laptop/Netbook, running Windows XP/7 (both 32 and 64 bit), and soon even Windows 8. It offers very fast real time visualization of what you're changing. No Read/Write buttons to press each time you make an...

    Darko... the new version has updated sensors ( really latest ones !! ) and also the ability to work at very cold temperatures... -20, -30 or even colder. If you purchase this v1 Picloc-3X, it can still be upgraded to v2 spec with sensor update package, and low temperature capability. I have...
