At the moment the control for gimbals (Servo or Brushless) is to provide a PWM output that 'should' correspond to an a servo position or brushless controller angle.
It would be great if the APM community could define a mechanism for gimbal sensors or brushless controllers to report the actual angle back to the APM.
That way the APM could provide accurate corrections for ROI targeting of targets at altitudes that are different to the copter.

The APM positioning is not accurate enough. Just look at loitering its always just a bit off its not cm accurate. Thus if you want the APM to focus exactly on a close target this variation will miss it. Unfortunate but true :(
would love to see this implemented
