I'll have to experiment more as i probably added too much now and my roll servo is twitching. I found a good subject to train on. Here's a few short clips (as the setup was worse than my previous video, conditions: light wind), I'm itching to film something rather fiddle with settings forever...

And I HAVE SEARCHED, but never found this explicit description. This makes my day... |

![]() This is my old post from this thread (no flame please ![]() "The gyroscope doesn't work if you don't connect all wires. One goes into servo, the other configures gyro sensitivity and mode (normal/heading hold) and the third wire defines the gyro offset + provides power to the gyro and servo. You must connect servo (that is clear , you have to provide sensitivity signal (otherwise the gyro is disabled) and you must power it and set the offset (it is helicopter gyroscope originally used to compensate tail drift - so what you actually do is that you define the "tail offset" which is in our case the angle of your camera)." |

I was also thinking about lengthening the beam for smoother slower reaction. I guess this only works for calm days, no wind gusts? Great work again but I think you are way ahead of the times with Stereo.. |

I think this description and some very good hints of Jelico around page 40 to 50 in this thread are the key to a well performing ecilop system.
The manual lacks in this very important point, while everything else about the ecilop is unrivaled well constructed, fabricated and prepared! Quote:

Hope it isn't too drastic out there

My experiments with the long balance beam are to be continued. |

After buying this kit and reading up all the pages, i still didn't get to see how to wire up those gyros, servos to the RX.
![]() Can any kind soul provide a proper connection diagram or schematics ? Quote:

Servo plug is the easy part as it plugs into the only female from the gyros Plug both Yellow cables into servo a tester which stays on the Ecilop permanently and allows you to twiddle the knob for adjusting out the swinging movement of the camera gimbal. Or plug both yellow plugs via a Y-cable into Gear channel (adjust gain on TX). Use Aux3 channel (Spektrum AR8000 RX) to adjust camera pitch angle in both cases. In all cases make sure the plug is the correct way up so it's not in the + or - slots If you have the Naza FC then Roll gyro black male plug into F1, Pitch gyro black male plug into F2 |
