Early Designs

After some early testing I started to make some changes to the gimbal designs Andy Shin had made, reinforcing the hinge and even experimenting with designs that intentionally added friction to the hinge in addition to a sprung servo linkage in an attempt to stop the servo jitters from making it to the camera. IContinue reading “Early Designs”

Early Testing

Initial testing was more for the viability of a head tracking gimbal on a FPV drone than anything else, I had the idea several months back and after finishing some work on my home it was time to give it a shot and see if it would be flyable. For initial testing I used theContinue reading “Early Testing”

Head Tracking FPV Gimbals for Multirotors

This sub-system significantly augments the flight dynamics and filming capabilities of a FPV drone and allows it to seamlessly transition from dynamic “proximity” flying into more traditional (non-FPV) drone shots, and vice versa, as well as a whole new set of maneuvers. FPV pilots have gotten very good at flying and filming within the constraintsContinue reading “Head Tracking FPV Gimbals for Multirotors”
