Gimbal use in theory....

[RyanG]

So I have the gimbal on order like most people. Just curious. IF it does everything it's supposed to and is a good gimbal what will happen if:

1. I have the gimbal pointed at the horizon and I am in full rabbit mode hovering and "mash" the throttle full forward or backward.

Would the gimbal stay focused perfectly on the horizon the entire time?
Would the gimbal falter for a second or two and then recorrect itself to the horizon and then stay perfect the whole time?

2. Would the same be true if I did a full throttle sideways left or right?

Thoughts?

Thanks

Ryan, if the gimbal is working correctly, you shouldn't be able to tell what the quad is doing. Here is a small test I did on the Tarot Gimbal I put on my hex a couple of years ago. You can see the arms a few times when I am slapping the sticks around...
