Just had to tell all of you about this $59.95 three axis gimbal deal on EBay:
This seemed like a great deal and looks to be identical to DYS Gimbal on Hobbyking which is $200.00.
I got one and quality appears excellent though I haven't tried to use it yet (I will probably get another.)
I'm planning on converting to a Storm 32 for a laser rangefinder scanner.
Apparently DSLRPros has moved on and is wholesaling them out.
I get nothing from anybody for this, but if you want a real 3 axis gimbal, this is the best deal you'll ever see.
Heres a link to the manual for the DYS: http://www.getfpv.com/media/wysiwyg/documentation/3AxisbrushlessGimbalManual.pdf
Heres a link to the Basecam (Alexmos) Home page: http://www.basecamelectronics.com/
And a link to download the appropriate 8bit Alexmos Gui: http://www.basecamelectronics.com/files/SimpleBGC_GUI_2_40b7.zip
And a link to download the Alexmos manual PDF file: http://www.basecamelectronics.com/files/v10/SimpleBGC_manual_2_4_eng.pdf
(This does include the Alexmos 3rd axis expansion board.
Best regards to you all,
Gary

Does anyone else's just plain not work? I think I got scammed with a bad one or something. Spent the last three hours trying to get it to work, different firmware version, accel calibrations, gyro calibrations, different PIDs, no matter what it just has seizures and fails to operate.
A shame, I thought DSLR Pros was reputable.
Great deal, and it already arrived, talk about fast shipping!
Gary, you've pretty much posted all the info we have. I want to try one with a Storm controller as well, let me know how that works out.
Thank you for posting. Awesome deal.
they have some for sale now if you missed the previous one.

Hi All,

I would suggest if you want one sooner rather than later.
Best,

Hi Mike,
Thanks for letting us know about the additional ones.
I just ordered a second one.
These seem a really excellent value, especially for a true 3 axis gimbal.
Is there anything you can tell us about these that might be of value?
I have already included all the information I could find that seemed relevant.
Best Regards,
Gary
Gary - thanks for the tip.
Mike - thanks for the update.
