gimbal

Has anyone tried to convert the Hero standard gimbal to fit the FLIR Vue Pro R with its HDMI and Power adapter? I saw the one on OEM Camera, but at 1900.00 it is a little pricey for a volunteer fire department in the wilds of North Idaho. Helps to spot fires when you are in a tunnel of 150...

Hello Guys, i just bought the Solo with Gimbal and installed it this weekend. I unscrewed the standard holder, fitted the cables like in the tutorial and put in the hdmi and data cable in the Gimbal. When i start the drone the gimbal flashes a very short time green. After that it flashes red...

Does anyone know where the cheapest place to buy the Solo gimbal?

Just wondering if anyone has found an alternative to the stock foam gimbal protector that comes with the gimbal. Anyone have any good ideas or solutions for a Gimbal Lock?

I received my Solo and Gimbal last week and finally had a moment to unbox and install the gimbal. Removing the static GoPro mount, I found 2 / 3 screws were incredibly difficult to remove. I was afraid of breaking off the threaded insert from the body. 45 mins later, I was able to work the...

Took my new still boxed gimbal and Solo from the B&H mistake deal on vacation with me!

Just joined the Forum as most of the info I dig up on the interweb relating the Solo, gimbal and GoPro tends to be from the US where they seem to have some killer Solo upgrades and mods. Are there many other UK peeps here? I'd be really appreciative if any UK peeps can point me in the direction...

Hi everyone, early days enjoying my Solo, gimbal and GoPro. Love seeing all the advice and offers on the interweb for filters for the GoPro and specialist counterbalance solutions, most of which do NOT seem available in the UK. (Well, filters maybe, but counterbalancing gimbal solutions seems...

Hi There, I use a GoPro Hero4 black, I have attached the gimbal mount onto the Solo, I am getting some type of interference that make the GoPro bounce/twitch while sitting in the Gimbal while in flight or simply while hovering. Even if the gimbal set so say 45 degrees it will twitch and then...

Hello all, I bought my Solo a few weeks ago and seem to be running into some issues. First of after unboxing I updated the app, Solo, controller, and GoPro. They should all be on the latest firm/software I know Solo and controller is 2.4. Now for the issues: 1. Hovering- My Solo does not hover...

Hi all. I have a new Solo with gimbal. My camera is a Hero 4 Black. When I first flew the Solo last week I had no problem with the video feed but I could not control the camera remotely, and the camera had locked up when I went to disconnect it. A firmware update of the GoPro fixed that...

Hey everyone, Hoping someone can help fill in a few blanks for me as I try configure the solo for use with my equipment in research. I will be adding my own microcontrollers and sensors that will work independent of the drone, however I want to trigger certain events using the Tower app/Solo...

Hi Guys. Need someone to help me with that. I did not find any information regarding same problem in this forum. Thanks for all support. GoPro Hero 3+ is filming OK when is not mounted on Solo Gimbal. Transmission is OK and very good when flying. Image generated from MP4 file is with 90%...

Can someone help me find the link to the instructions to the proper way the gimbal wiring should be routed? I started getting a limp/sagging gimbal after the 2.4 update and it's never been this bad of an issue for me. I figure the best place to start trouble-shooting is to make sure it's...

Pending a response from 3DR I'll reserve my documented disgust with this drone. Latest problem is loss of gimbal control and subsequent Hero Black overheat/shutdown. GoPro rep says the external power source (from Solo via gimbal) should be 5VN1A. Not sure if the most recent update is at fault...

For those of you who "take GoPro where the drone don't go" what do you prefer to use for handheld gimbals or steady/glide cams? My experience is the device is too light for most, not all, glide/steady cams. Motorized gimbals seem to give better results. What do you like to use?

I got a new gimbal and when i attach it solo almost immediately looses connection. Then it requires pressing the pairing button to reconnect, but usually won't connect at all, or takes a half hour of messing around to get it to pair again. When I remove the gimbal, everything works fine, not...

So today I was goin to get some shots of my neighbors roof. Pretty checked and took off. Flew aprox 15 or less to setup camera I was in the air for about 5 min with no issues. Noticed that the Iso was set to high so I landed to adjust camera functions to get a better video. Took back off under...

I received a refurbished Solo after my first one crashed and it was deemed software error by 3DR. I used to download dataflash logs with Mission Planner with my first Solo, but the one I got now displays a strange behavior (see video, only 17 seconds long) when connected to Mission Planner. The...

Hi everyone, I've noticed that my horizon gets an angle of 2 or 3 degrees... Is there a way to set the roll of the gimbal ?
