I want to simply tilt my camera platform with one of the "pots" on the 9xr. and I bought a gimbal motor (Ipower 2208) to do this and I want to avoid having to mess with a gimbal set up. I could have just mounted it on a servo but I really like the Gimbal motor platform (shape) for this use.
Can someone advise if I can connect this I-Power 2208 directly to a receiver, or does this need a ESC like "regular" motors. If so, then I wonder how to get it to tilt - only - 90 degrees back and forth.
Just need a little help.
Thanks.

disregard. Honestly, I am surprised after about 2 weeks no one offered any help. I got help really fast on RCG. I don't mean to offend anyone, just stating the results
The answer is "no". You have to have a controller to operate a gimbal motor; you cannot operate it directly from a receiver or a pin on the APM like A10 or A11 like you can with a servor..
