Hi all,

Here is a video i've made with MultiWii 2.1 and my Hexa (Flyduspider) to demonstrate how works Gimbal command.

I have the minimum conf with Arduino Pro Mini and a PPM Sum card to save two output need for Gimbal command, and one for Cam Trigger.

In the code you can chose between 50 Hz 160 Hz and 300 Hz for the servo command, in the video i'm on 50 hertz to start.

With so many options out there on Servo I really don't know what to carry...
Just look at the 3DR store and you will see that they also appears to many models to please everyone... I would like to only carry 3.... a cheap one (got that one already)
a mid range one maybe like your EMAX ES08MD... and a high end one for people looking for perfect one.
Like most product it's hard to shop for you guys! :)

The M is for metal and D is for digital ! it's good to know that this kind of servo can handle different frequency and not only 20 ms period like all standard servo.

I will make different test this week with 50 hz, 160 Hz and 300 Hz to see if the movie is correct !!
