    Hi Scott:
    If you have that option to try a different FC board, then yes, I'd certainly try it. How frustrating....

    Hi Scott,

    I am not too familiar with using the MK FC as a gimbal stabilizer but it looks like the MK board on the camera mount is not outputting the correct center servo command. Can you trim it via the MK software?

    I found more of a work around the problem, rather than a solution. I've heard of a few people having this problem. Some cases, it's just a minor pan rate, and others, like mine, it would pan at about 360 degrees every 80 seconds.

    On my DX8 I went into the subtrim menu to stop the camera mount from spinning. After doing that, It would not have much movement in the opposite direction when I needed to pan that way. I had to then change the dual rate values to even out the pan rates so that both directions matched up.

    I Hope that helps.

    -and thanks to Josh for helping out!

    Hi Tabb. I tried using the MK software to stabilize it, without success. The changes to the radio trim settings that I made should work. Hopefully I'll be upgrading to the Radian soon, anyway!

    I have a FC board that was working properly when I removed it to install Radians. I can send it to you if you want to try it.

    Thanks Joe, but the work-around seems to being doing fine. I'll probably be getting the Radian in another few months, anyway :)
