"Awesome. That is micro beauty."
"Very nice Kirill, STM32 is the way to go. How much does your board retail for?"
"Lol! We're there. Next up is a replicator so we can make a quick cheese-burger at the field."
"One way it could be interesting is if the right hand mini screen displayed what the gimbal is seing, it would be interesting for aerial shooting. And overlay some basic info like battery state, altitude, heading etc.... For the life of me, I could…"
"And film your quad by looking at it, which would be natural while flying LOS. Not sure what the video quality would be like, says HD but not much info."
Recon JetCould be fun, you could fly LOS and still have important info displayed right on your shades.
"Great flyiing Julien, I personally could not do FPV through the gimbal, my internal gyros would be all confused! And the gimbal looks like it works very well. Good job. I will post a video of mine when I am finished."
"@Julien Watier: From a balance standpoint, the GoPro has most of it`s weight on the left side of the lens (battery) so it makes more sense to put the pitch motor to the right of the lens. The pitching assembly will then have a natural tendency to…"
"@Ben Norris. Very keen observation, all the gimbal manufacturers make the same mistake, as a result, the gimbal rolls off the gopro`s lens center. The motor should be inside the cradle that holds the GoPro, to the right of it so it would naturaly…"
"Like Time said, if it was software, they would have fixed it by now. The trouble is, if it is hardware, and the thousands of reports point in that direction, we have to wait until GoPro release a second HW edition of the 3 series. In doing so, they…"
"The problem is a hardware issue. GoPro made a huge batch to be ready for the holidays, a huge percentage of those have a hardware defect. Until that batch is gone from the shelves and GoPro starts selling a revised hardware version, the 3 series…"
"That is cool! Now all we need is transponders to broadcast our positions. "
"Chris, that is a step in the right direction. People need to have a resource they can tap into for setup that is up to date and matching whatever code they are using. You owe them that much. Reading through a 275 page thread to figure out how to fly…"
"Maxime, you seem to know your way around electronics so I am sure you will figure out a way to make it safe. I am interested in your RX switcher, where did you get it, do you have any information on it? Thanks!"
"Hi Maxime, to make it safe, you need to figure out a way to be able to completely bypass the APM if it gets wonky, and it will at times. Some sort of external failsafe, something like this:
