Mily Do not buy this product. It may come good one day. Put the money towards a Zenmuse if you want to make proper videos. If you buy a HF controller what camera mount are you going control? Go back over this thread a few pages and you can see the difference between Zen and the HF. No...

I meant just tuning the power off and on at the gimbal but hey I just found something else. Just as I was about to say how well the roll was starting to look I picked up the model and noticed that a pan movement is now also controlling the roll servo as well. It just gets worse. I would stop...

Yeah I found that also but sometimes if you cycle the power it is OK again. Save as you go.... Sometimes it take it and sometimes you need a beer.

The 550D is quite a heavy camera for this mount and with a 18-55 lens it needs to be mounted on the furthest hole from the tray, it also then needed some shims to get the final height just right. This is not a solution BTW it is just another step in the right direction. I just powered the two...

Hi Im still sticking with this in an effort to see the final solution. I am fully aware of its limitations so I know what is not possible with what we have. For sure you have a major problem with the code. That said 1.1.7 is better than what I have seen before. The balance factor does make a...

If you get your hands on a spare (the new one) I'll buy it from you. The old CC was actually a good little board.

Jeremy as you know I went through the whole servo thing a while back, I stopped using gear/belt drives in favour of direct drive servos such as MKS 787 at 8.4 volts due to the speed of response, when that was exhausted I saw that I reached the end of the road. It was just not fast enough. Enter...

Hi Koptercam I only used the lead to add some mass to the imu. All of the solutions that we have heard about are showing some degree of improvement especially with regard to the jitter problem and the backlash. At the end of the day we still need some work on the code before we can say we are...

Nice to hear that, can you show us a mirror test? that would be a refreshing ray of hope to many.

Oh I get it, we are all wrong about this, I'll tell DJI, STK, ACS, Ultramedia, Cineflex, Bob Nettman and John Doyle that we don't need to worry about newtons third law, all we have to do a stick a brake on each axis so it cant move and then everything will be stable relative to the base it is...

Actually guys the jitter is only one small part of the bigger problem, fix that, and then we still have to deal with the high degree of lag on the tilt axis which is not quite so bad on the roll. Perhaps Cedric can help us on this one? The firmware is far from right and even though the jitter is...

Juri you are one of the real genuine guys here. Keep us all inline mate.

OK what you have failed to understand is that the IMU measures the angle relative to it's movement in space, it applies a correction signal that must not be corrupted by any other source if it is to point the drive system in the desired position. If you place external loads on the servo that...

How many people does it take to change a light bulb? Answer= 100. Thats 1 to do it and 99 to say I could have done that. I did not expect anything else. I should have left you crying in your beer.

Take a look at just about every tail rotor gyro. they are usually supplied with an interim vibration absorbing plate that is sandwiched between the base and the gyro. the size and densities of the materials used are based on test results to determine the optimum characteristics. If you want to...

You have to provide a vibration dampening between the pitch shaft and the IMU. NOT the shaft and the frame otherwise the imu will not control the movement correctly. The shaft must remain free to move and be mass balanced or it will not work. killing the jitter by holding the shaft is not the...

Ok OK I give in. I'll be up all night at this rate. The answer was staring us all in the face. you cannot mount a high sensitivity gyro on a solid vibrating surface without getting feedback noise. Just disconnect it from the shaft and hold it in your hand and you will see the jitter stop there...

If anyone wants to know how to stop the jitter properly by fixing the source of the problem PM me for the details. Your gona kick yourself afterwards.

The MC and IMU should only be stuck with the supplied gummed paper. the dedicated soft mounting is inside the cases. Do make sure that the IMU has clearance around the top frame cut out.

As a general rule the mounting of an imu has to be done with a specific degree of frequency dampening. That is why the DJI (sorry for that) uses a double sided paper to mount their FC controllers so that an augmented movement does not happen. As could happen with double sided rubberized tape.
