Two shafts from a brushless motor, four bearings, some Balsa and some Birch. It isn't precision, but it works.

I think that one motor would be sufficient, then.
It depends on what you are trying to achieve. If you just want to damp the oscillation when you move, then just one on the camera mount would be sufficient. Two vertical-axis counter-rotating flywheels would prevent any precession-related funny business when you yaw-rotate the airframe,
Andrew - How about whacking four free-spinning electric motors on it? One flanking each axis? Just so it is balanced. Would they cancel eachother out? Or would making them spin CW / CCW to each other be better?
Whack a free-spinning electric motor on that to give the thing some gyroscopic rigidity. That'll stop the wobbling.
No. It needs damping. Brushless gimbals dampen in software. Steadicams use a magic lubricant.
VirtualDub. . . I'll have to look into that (Google It). Thanks MLK.
I'll upload some video from the gimbal within the week. . . if it's any good. It's all experimental.
