well, its been very poorly managed and marketed. I guess it was never really said that this was specifically marketed for the phantom, but it was implied. If a hardware update is required for the phantom, then DJI should be offering it at a discount for suckered Phantom owners who purchased a phantom recently knowing a "plug and play" gimbal was on the way. Or include it with the gimbal, for a slight surcharge.
Also, if the final price of a phantom and a gimbal is actually $1600, theres a lot of quads out there for that price. Alas, I am one of the suckers who now own a phantom, and would rather have a 550 or UAV quad. So disgusted at it all, but I will probably go ahead and buy it: but it better be flawless in its performance, of DJI will start getting flamed in public forums. |

All who have questions about the hardware requirements of this gimbal as wellas questions about the video downlink will find the PDF manual from DJI innovations most helpful. I downloaded it yesterday and it answered all my questions...

Zenmuse H3-2D - GoPro remote Start / Stop ?
What this means remote Start / Stop GoPro cameras?
How and why? The new manual Zenmuse H3-2D about is not a word ... |

The Zen15 has this feature to take a picture or start recording from you Tx. I am assuming that with the 20 pin connector on the back of the GoPro you can control the camera functions. From there it is just coding to enable those commands. I believe this is a feature for future upgrades to the software. I wish DJI would stop doing this, pre-announcing features that they are working on but not yet available. It only leads to frustration on the part of users.

I thought so, but given that 90% (or more) Phantom users uses stock Tx (without the next channel) he had bought with the plane, so I described it thus seems very strange without further description

On page 10 of the latest Zenmuse H3-2D User Manual v1.02 it shows the difference in wiring requirements between Naza-M V2 vs. V1.
My Phantom has the original V1 (Red) Naza-M controller. The Zenmuse H3_2D comes supplied with the Gimbal Control Unit (GCU). In the attached illustration, that's the white box. The newer Naza-M V2 (Orange) comes with its own Power Management Unit (PMU), but I understand we have to buy that separately for our older Naza-M V1 (Red). I understand that. My question is, what is that other box? What is an "LED V-SEN" and is that something else that we will need to buy separately? |

I'm just curious why all of these GoPro gimbals seem to be designed with the assumption your camera will always be in the mount. At the very least use a thumbscrew for the holder to make it easy to put in and take out.

The bit from the LED marked as "disconnected" used to be plugged into X3 on the Naza, but that X3 connection is now taken by the PMU, correct? |
