Hi there is my smallest gimbal project for GoPro. The weight is 135g, carbon 3k, for pitch I've used motor from CD.

I will do, just now waiting for the controller. The next version will have 3 axis.
That looks really neat! How hard do you think it would be to modify the current gimbal to be a 2 or 3 axis gimbal?
Great job,

Euan,
the CD motor weight is 17g, so it might be difficult to make it lighter or I can save 2-3 grams making few holes in the rotor. Most crucial is adopt other motor for roll, actually I mounted heavy, 47grams. In the next version I will use other 20g.in this case the gimbal weight should be no more than 110g with Martinez pcb.
Is the roll COG correct? It looks wrong, but maybe the CD drive motor is much lighter than I thought!
Could the main beam be shortened and lightened?
Hi leonardthall,
sleeves are rolled onto a lathe for bearings 3 x 8 mm
The motor: 100 turns, double 36AWG. 9 teets, connected to WYE, ABC rewinding. Motor come from CDRom. It working perfectly but important is to find the balance for camera and all of the wires should be very flexible.
The cover for camera and other carbon composite laminated in moulds.
Very nice!
What did you use for the bearing mount?
Did you rewind the hard disk motors?
