The current status of camera stabilization

Posted by Andrew Radford on August 7, 2011 at 4:42am

Just added a (tilt only) camera gimble - the cheap one from Hobby King. Now I'd like to get some stabilization working. I've lost track on how to do this on AC2 - last time I looked at this was in NG. Looks like the code has moved on a bit. 

I've read this page but don't seem to be able to reconcile that advice with the 2.38 beta code.

 

Is there anything I need to enable in the code, or is it 'always working' on outputs 5 and 6, and are there any config values for throw, gain etc I need to set?

 

Apologies if this is all explained somewhere, I did search...

    You can reverse it in the planner. look for a code like "RC_CP_" and "REV" and put a -1 in there.

    In the latest firmware (starting from 2.0.38) camera stabilisation is always enabled. Just connect your servo's to outputs 5 and 6 and it should work. There's nothing to configure for gain etc. If you want to scale the output you'll have to modify the code and compile with arduino.
