"Tarot gimbal on 3DR X8 (2013).
I made a mounting plate for the Tarot gimbal V2, the space between the top and bottom plates of the X8 is good enough to fit it in there. Works fine so far."
"Now it is working, I swap GEAR and AUX1 cables on the AR8000 receiver and I got six flight modes on the Flap switch.
