Help With Gimble Control #4474

Closed stefanoghazzali closed 7 years ago

stefanoghazzali commented 7 years ago

I have a PixHawk Board with PX4 Firmware flashed on to it via QGroundControl.

Frame:- S550 Hex Gimbal:- Tarot T-3D - III Flight Controller :-PixHawk 2.4.8 Transmitter:-Flysky FS-I6S Receiver:-Flysky FS-IA6B MAVLINK:3DR OS:Windows 10 Home Software QGroundControl V 3.1.2

I would like to control the tilt of the gimbal (The Gimbal is connected to Channel1 AUX out on the Pixhawk) from the transmitter using its potentiometer on channel 6, could you advise the best way of doing this as I see no option to control the gimbal from QGroundControl under the camera settings.

Is it possible to set these as system parameters or is this functionality going to be included in the next release - I am happy to BETA test for you.

Kind Regards An Enthusiast

You should ask the firmware folks about this. I'm not sure if it is current supported by PX4 firmware.
