That's better Mario. You need the weight on the gimbal. The GH-2 is a light camera. Try something heavier.
hello how do you power the reciver from the alexmos is there a output ?? i use 4s batt on my setup,can i use one motoroutput the get power to my graupner r 16 reciver?? do it take 14,8 volt or is it a 5 volt output from it i thougth the reciver got power from the tilt out put or the yaw output but no?
On the Alexmos board there are 2 small pads labelled JP1. If you solder the pads it will pass 5 volts from the board through the rc inputs that you connect your receiver to. I personally use a bec to give 5 volts to my receiver and to have 5 volts for video converters. I was using the power from soldering JP1 but didn't want to run converters from it.
Hi Guys, Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but I am very curious as to how the brushless belt-drive setups have worked out for you? Did you manage to get around the amplified cogging issue? Or perhaps all this has become moot with release of much bigger motors? I have an old servo gimbal I'm thinking of converting Oh and hello to all the regulars this is my first post.
Mine worked well, but now I'm running direct drive GB85 motors. I only ran into issues with cogging on the pan with a 5208 motor, but I swapped it with a higher pole count and it smoothed it out. The large motor direct drive gimbals are heavier than a belt setup, but they react faster and are easier/faster to tune. (In my Opinion) I think it mainly comes down to budget/weight
Thanks for the update Matt, most appreciated! Ya, I've got an old Tarot 5D servo gimbal and I thought I might try running brushless motors on the belts to save weight. I've got it mounted on a Hexa and the copter is at the max comfortable weight. So going with one of the new large-motor gimbals will put me over the 50% hover margin. I'd need to dump the Canon 5D and get a lighter camera, or build an Octo... both options get a bit pricey lol. Thanks again. I may just give this a go
