I suppose that is the risk you take with buying generic stuff on ebay but I am thoroughly confused and cant get answers from any of the sellers. I see several different gimbals all for around $129. They all have the exact same pictures. (I think that is a problem created by ebay autolisting. When I sold a gopro ebay said "we already have listings for your item would you like us to use that info instead?). I suspect this is the same thing happening with the gimbals, the sellers just let ebay autocomplete their listings for them.
But I am noticing certain models may be 200g, some may be 400g. Some look like they are aluminum, some look like carbon fiber. Theyll link to a youtube installation video for a different model. The English in some of the descriptions is absolutely horrible. I presume that these are just Chinese distributors listing as much stuff as possible not really proofreading it and making sure that the links to youtube videos are correct? But then they say that they ship from Staten Island,but there will be two different sellers both shipping from Staten Island. Maybe there are actually 2 different distribution in Staten Island but I find it weird that there are two different online storefronts coming from the same place? Just so many weird things that don't make sense with these listings.
But after all this is said and done, all I am looking for is a relatively light gimbal that is plug and play and has the wiring to connect pitch control to the Naza board.
here are some examples. has anyone dealt with these? are they complete junk? plug and play? support pitch control without buying extra parts? I know there are foolproof ones like zenmuse but I really cant spend $200+ right now.
