    Gimbal Settings in NAZA

    These settings are mainly for the DJI gimbals, that use the NAZA orientation sensor. If your gimbal is not DJI, than it has it's own orientation sensor and it's own servo settings. Don't need to bother with these settings. Try this, much simpler: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=19172&p=177630#p177630

    FC40 Battery Charging Lights

    If the cell light is blinking, it indicates a problem with that cell. Monitor your battery closely, if it does that again, you may have a weak cell. Oh, and it does not say 1-5 (one - five), it's 1S (one - es). Cell no. 1. :lol:

    Costly Dilemma...Advice? Please

    I don't event start to understand why on earth would you make a dilemma that you describe as costly even costlier. FPV systems cost roughly the same, no matter the frequency. So, you need a system that's not on 5.8 GHz. Simple as that. It's been talked ad nauseum, on this forum and all over the...

    The Smallest & Cheapest Repeater for FC40 cam ($21)

    I beg to differ... The cheapest is the Tenda A6 ($14,99). Watch out though, only "English version" has the repeater function, the "Chinese version" does not. The case, the circuit board and the box look conspicuously similar. Don't know who knocks who... And an external antenna like that is...

    Controller Antenna Position?

    Tilted at 45 deg. and thus pointing straight up. To mach the polarization of the wire antennas on the bird.

    gain adjusment for vision props on FC40???

    I don't need to adjust the gains either, the bird flyes just fine. With gimbal, with no gimbal, with a fixed mount, with or without a camera. However, here are the gain settings for Phanton Vision that I found on another forum: Basic gains all = 130% Attitude gains all = 200% Try and see what...

    goodluckbuy gimbal questions

    Not true. It's a Walkera product, designed for Walkera copters, not DJI. As other users have reported here, it does not fit properly on the Phantom: it interferes with the battery door opening and it is a bit too long and you need to extend the Phantom legs in order not to bump your GoPro in the...

    Pitch lever install

    The genuine one is made of white plastic and it's part no. 24: http://aerialmediapros.com/store/phanto ... radio.html. And the instructions: http://download.dji-innovations.com/dow ... _v1.00.pdf I also have some parts bearing a DJI logo that have no connection with the real manufacturer. :)

    Will this gimbal work?

    Most gimbal manufacturers claim they sell the products already calibrated. Just try installing it and don't rush to toy with the firmware and parameters. I bet you don't need to alter a thing with this gimbal, as they should be good quality units.

    Pitch lever install

    Others trying to install these thingies, do yourselves a favor and get the genuine 'phantom slide lever' by DJI (google it). It costs the same, comes with fitting instructions and fits perfectly. You could've just calibrated the travel limits in the NAZA-M assistant... Just go for the simplest...

    Will this gimbal work?

    Oouch. That is expensive, yet it looks exactly like the $70 gimbal, just painted black. The question is: does it came with a Phantom mount? This used to be my best-in-class choice for a 2 axis gimbal. However, for some unknown reason, they redesigned the mount and some websites warn plainly...

    It has been a very pleasant experience with this gimbal, it's proven to be truly plug-and-play. The only thing I did was solder the power connector and the pitch connector. The gimbal fits perfectly, nothing is in the way and it does not bump in the ground. Just power up and fly! In the Naza...

    Flight time with 4000mah and vision props?

    The 4000 mAh is not doing the job you are expecting, if you get these times. I get the same times with a 2700 mAh, 9" XOXO knock-off props, gimbal and GoPro. And the lipo fits right in the compartment, no more modding necessary. Also, if your bird is stable, you don't need to adjust the gains.
