    Landing skid question

    Ahhh.. Thanks for the link. I should've done a search first. I'm gonna swap the skids tonight.

    Landing skid question

    Just wondering if the landing skids on the P2V and P2V+ are interchangeable. I'm assuming the P2V+ uses the exact same body shell as the P2V?? I want to swap the tall skids from my Vision to my Vision Plus, but needed to know before I wasted any time first. Thanks

    Aerial Freaks Cyclops Vision Brushless Gimbal

    Mine does that also on start-up, so I think it is the normal initialization of the gimbal motors.

    Aerial Freaks Cyclops Vision Brushless Gimbal

    Ok, I'm a little new at the technical aspects of fine tuning this gimble, but what is the difference between "HIGH-FREQUENCY OSCILLATIONS" & "LOW-FREQUENCY OSCILLATIONS"?? And how do you tell which is which? I thought I had the gimble perfectly calibrated, but when I launch the Phantom, the...

    Crash recovery

    OK, where can I get the best step-by-step directions to do the IMU calibration. I have my P2V connected and ready to start.

    Crash recovery

    Thanks. When I went into Vision Assistant software and connected to my P2V under TOOLS tab, I clicked "CHECK IMU STATUS". It came back "Callibration not needed" should I ignore that and do the calib anyway?

    Crash recovery

    I have a problem. My Phantom 2 Vision experienced an inverted crash on concrete, landing upside down on the prop hubs (OUCH!!). So the props are destroyed, no big deal. Put new ones on and now the craft wobbles in flight. Is there a way to check the alignment of the motors and shafts in case...

    Aerial Freaks Cyclops Vision Brushless Gimbal

    Here is a schematic layout of the board (the green colored one). I noticed 2 terminal pins on my board with nothing connected. On the color diagram it looks like this is for a 2-wire momentary button (yellow arrow). Could it be that rather than a soldered micro-button, they opted for an...

    Well I adjusted the pitch limits in the BGC software and now the min/max travel is perfect, from horizontal to straight down vertical. Thanks again for the expertise. And BTW, I could not not find the physical reset button on the controller board. Other boards I've seen have the tiny reset...

    Aerial Freaks Cyclops Vision Brushless Gimbal

    Help... If anyone stills reads this thread, I have installed the Cyclops gimble and all seems well except through the Phantom iPad control app camera tilt function, I can't get the cam to tilt all the way vertical (straight down). I have set the pitch parameters under GIMBLE SETTINGS in Assist...

    Aerial Freaks Cyclops Vision Brushless Gimbal

    Hey all... I am going to purchase the Cyclops Vision gimble and was wondering if I should order it from HeliDirect in Massachusetts, or from the official Aerial Freaks company in California?? Both are advertising it for $299 USD. I live in Washington State and don't want the package to be too...
