Can't get my Sony NEX5 to trigger off the Pixhawk with the Flytron SLED for Sony NEX.
I know it's not the SLED because I've got it working with a servo tester.
I have a 5V BEC plugged into the RC9 just to power the rail with 5V and the SLED in RC10, {Relay_Pin = 51 :: CAM_TRIGG_TYPE = 0}
Initial Setup: Shutter = RC10 :: Shutter-pushed = 1000 / Not Pushed = 1500 / Duration 10 :: Servo Limits 900Min / 1900Max.
Things I've tried to make sure it's not SLED or lack of voltage.
tried plugging SLED into servo tester on 4cell NiCad :Worked.
Tried Plugging BEC that powers the rail into servo tester :Worked.
Tried removing Signal wire and using servo tester and it worked with just the +&- (??)
But whenever I try to get it to work from the Pixhawk. it doesn't work.
Tried just after power up (didn't work). Tried after Pre-Arm (didn't work). Tried after Arm (didn't work).
Tried changing values of servo Min/Max. Didn't work.
Tried changing values of Shutter Pushed/Not Pushed. Didn't work.
Update, Works with PWM Reciever and servo tester. Still not working with Pixhawk

Got it working.
Seems like RC10 was not working, but RC 11 did work. Not sure why RC10 is not working. Not sure if it's hardware or software. Has anyone had an issue like this?
Could that port be damaged? Or, did I miss something?
Anyways, long story, it works now, on RC 11.
I have the same problem.
Did you power the rail to make it work?
I confused setting as relay the port that you connect the flytron and then set CAM_TRIGG_TYPE = 0 (servo).
What is your option in BRD_PWM_COUNT?
Must the pixhawk power by battery to work or work with usb power?
The gimbal type (see the attached picture) has anything to do?
