I have been following the wiki for APM2.5 camera gimbal setup (using firmware 2.9.1b, quad X).I have no problem to use RC10 or RC11 to trigger a servo as camera trigger (using receiver ch7 as manual input).However i do not get any joy using the other APM pins, from RC5 to RC8.I tested both analog and digital servos, absolutely no effect.I then took a voltmeter to test the pins and it confimrs that voltage stays at zero on these pins. That at least explains why the servo does not move...Testing in the same way on RC10 or RC11 confirms correct voltage.I verified all RC function parameters in the advanced param list in missn planner, all looks correctly configured.So before I post a bug report for developers, i wanted to be sure that my observation is confirmed by others ?Thx,

I have not tested it recently but it should work. it's possible that it doesn't work with some servos because the update rate is very high on pins 5 to 8. if you reduce the rc_speed param to 50 does it still not work?
