    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    JJdac, look at the settings listed on page 2. I tweaked forever trying to get the jitters out of my Gimbal and only solved it by using the settings recommended there. It seems that tweaking the by trial and error is an act in futility. I also have the same issue with the gimbal freaking...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    Johnnie, read through the first few pages of this thread (I have had a long day so I'm far too lazy, also my gimbal is sitting on the shelf during my current re-build) Basically I would suggest bypassing the Naza all together. Look into your futaba settings and find out what output your...

    Decent screws!

    I have had this same problem. I ordered big bags of M3 and M2.5 from fastenal (http://www.fastenal.com/web/home) if you have a local store you can actually take the screw in that you want and they will look it up and get it shipped in. They usually have some M3 in stock and have to order 2.5. I...

    Can you post a link where I can download the latest firmware? I'll be mounting the gimble on my newest build soon and expect the will be a good time to update. Thanks!

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    ....yes, it can be driven from one channel on the Rx, you want the signal from your knob to go to the "T" pin on the tarot board. I ran the negative to the negative pin on the next row down. Positive is cut off and sealed in shrink tube.

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    The instruction I read when I connected the board recommended running a negative to one of the negative pins on the tarot board. With the layout of the pins I couldn't connect the RX to the tilt pin and a negative pin without the split. I think some where back in this thread there were...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    I made one out of a servo wire, I pilled the pins out of one end and plugged them into 2 different servo ends.

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    I haven't messed with updating the firmware at all so I can't help you there, sorry. I don't know much about the Phantom set up either, alot of the 6-7 channel radios have a knob that people use for the tilt adjustment. I think one of the videos said it was the first video that wasn't using...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    sorry, something weird with the formatting on my little roll/tilt alignment, the numbers aren't in a column, but I think we can make sense of it.

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    Xaircraft, I just uploaded your gains and they are way better than what I had. went in and messed around with my motor setting and have the Gimbal working perfectly now. All the issues are basically solved, at extreme limits I get some vibration but I would have to fly pretty hard to get...

    2 devastating crashes in a month using Wookong

    Can't blame you there, good luck with the next build. Also, you might want to post the location of your lake, might drum up some swimmers.:frog:

    2 devastating crashes in a month using Wookong

    Sorry to hear about the crashes, unexplained problems are the worst because you can never stop worrying about them. On to my point.... my Quad is flying a Naza-M (upgraded to V2 firmware) and I have found it very reliable. I fly mostly in GPS or ATTI mode and as soon as I'm ready to come...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    ohshme, you will need the UBEC or a battery to supply the 12V, if the tarot is on a 3s system you should be able to tie into the battery power. Although I expect Xaircraft is right about the voltage fluctuations. the easiest way for me to connect the tilt control was to go strait from the...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    ohshme, what gimbal do you have? I would suggest a BEC if the Naza-M can't power it.

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    Thanks a lot! I'll save my current settings a give yours a try. I have everything the same as you aside from the difference in gains. If you have time toss me your motor settings. I agree with you about the UBEC, I have a halfway decent Hobby shop in town so I can just go pick one up...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    Alright it is all working pretty well at this point. Self leveling seems to be ok, only a minor vibration at the extreme ends of the rotation limits. I still have the weird jerk when it hits the max point but I haven't done any small scale fine tuning yet. I got the tilt working via the knob...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    I feeding power directly off my power distribution system, 14.8 volts (4s) My gain settings were all over the place, I kept starting from scratch and bumping sliders up and down till I got to a very minute fast shake. Just found a video online (sorry closed the tab and don't have the...
