3 Axis Gimbal for Iris+ - looking for suggestions.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a 3-axis gimbal for an Iris+?

The only option I have found out there is the DYS 3 Axis.  Are there any others that work with a GoPro Hero 4 Black?

Thanks, erik

p.s.

If someone who owns a DYS and an Iris sees this, I have a few questions:

  1. Does the DYS integrate with pixhawk?
    • Meaning in auto missions or follow me, will the Iris+ be able to tilt the camera up and down to keep the subject in frame?
  2. Is there an interface plate, or do I have to find someone to 3D print one for me?
  3. Does the DYS work with a GoPro 4 black?
  4. How are the vibration levels?
  5. Is it difficult to install
    • Complicated software config I can handle, but on the hardware side I'm pretty awful at soldering and tend to really mess things up.

Thanks for the information. I could find an amazing footage of DYS Marcia: https://youtu.be/kGyhT8SGcbQ

But as you know, Marco is an expert among experts. He said

DYS Marcia is a great 3-axis gimbal, unfortunately does't work well "out-of-the-box", it requires some hardware changes in order to have all the remote control offered by "Basecam" 32 bit board ...

Several days ago “famous” Marco uploaded the raw footages of new DYS Marcia gimbal.

Those footages are amazing but Marco is an expert and he had gone through serious tuning.

He said:

After some intense days of tuning and hardware changes i was able to get this amazing results, now i can do intensive tests at the flying field. "DYS Marcia" is a great 3-axis gimbal, unfortunately does't work well "out-of-the-box", it requires some hardware changes in order to have all the remote control offered by "Basecam" 32 bit board, for remote video from GoPro and to remove any residual vibrations. The video is the raw output of GoPro, without any post stabilization, in the second part (slow motion) you can see a few drops of rain. Please do not ask about my settings, i was tuned on my hardware changes:

- "roll" pin for rx sbus total control, wired on the slip ring
- GoPro 4 built-in charge
- GoPro 4 remote video output wired on the slip ring
- bluetooth module for remote control
- double anti-vibration system - static balance on roll (must improve aesthetically)

So did you get them or not?  If it turns out you don't like them for some reason, I'll be interested in buying one from you.
