    What's the latest wisdom on gimbal installation?

    An easier way would be flip the solo upside down on a flat table, the pan axis part should be centered in the opening. If its offset in any direction then the wires is pushing against the solo interior body. Now flip it sideways, top down and bottom down. The gravity should pull it stright down...

    Do you prefer to land Manual or Auto?

    90 percent of the time I hand grab the under belly of the Solo just behind the gimbal. Twice I had fine dust stuck my controller stick and freak me out for a second, so pretty much never land on ground any more. The times I use auto land is to show my friend that it can auto land.

    Adding ND filter to GoPro with Gimbal

    I added the big 6g weight that cames with the 3dr gimbal to the back of the gimbal. Look carefully at the back of the gimbal there are mounting holes pre threaded, the weight just screwed on. I added some blue thread lock. And another 5g of lead weight shrink wrap and double side tape to the end...

    Orbit Videos (Post Yours)

    I was playing with the changing radius and altitude. Want to see how it auto aimed the shot. I did notice that the gimbal pan to right when it enter the orbit and returne to center when it exit the orbit. Maybe its trying to get the leg out of the shot. I had fun doing it.

    Gimbal Not Pointing Straight?

    I think HDMI seems fine, just have to make sure its adjust properly. The gimbal data cable is really stiff , so kind of have to bend and shape it carefully so it don't interfere with gimbal movement. Make sure gimbal data cable don't touch the front of the body shell.

    Gimbal Not Pointing Straight?

    im thinking maybe the pan axis motor is rubbing against the pcb board.

    Gimbal Not Pointing Straight?

    Remove the prop. and flip the solo up side down to see if the gimbal is centered. 1st time I assemble the gimbal it was offset to the rear. Gimbal data cable is very stiff and pushing it against the front of the body shell. Place the solo on flat surface make sure gravity is not pulling it sideways.
