Sub-250 FPV Tilt Gimbal

Prebuilt Sub-250 Tilt Gimbals available here!

This is a tilt gimbal intended for small sub-250-gram drones, it has major limitations but works well enough to use for scenarios where smoothness isn’t critical, and weight is. The FPV camera is completely exposed and the gimbal itself isn’t durable, so this is not intended to withstand crashes. This accepts any ‘naked’ action camera via the standard GoPro Bones ‘tab’ mount.

These fit standard 9-gram servos (23mm x 12mm), uses two 3mm ID 6mm OD 2.5mm Width ball bearings, and 1mm steel pushrod.

PLEASE NOTE: This is significantly less smooth and durable than the full-size gimbals and has a much smaller range of motion but works just well enough for stabilized action cameras to hide the servo jitter.
