Post above yours has links to the Pinouts Also what type of Gimbal as in model number?

T-2d

 

[XevetS]

Pin 1 and 3 will provide power and ground
Pin 14 will be your channel 6 PWM out to gimbal which is the paddle tilt on controller, you will also need to use the ground pin 3

T-2d

What are the specs how much voltage can it handle as in can you hook it up to a 4S battery 15 volts?

If so the easiest way to solder the connections is to remove the battery, gps cover and battery tray 7 small screws you will have to remove the gps wire connector also (just a clip) you will see the pin break out right underneath, very easy to solder.

Please provide me with any image o diagram if you can, and I can't find the
Extend 3DR Solo Accessory Bay, no we're?

You do not need it if you open the solo and solder directly to the pins from the top

Show me a image of one of yours of anything

Its not apart at the moment no pics, Here is one I found online you can see the connections at the top
number 1 pin is to the very left


found this pic online just use the two wires shown one to ground pin 3 and one wire to pin 14 which is the signal from the paddle tilt on controller. After the wires are soldered you will need to open up solo in mission planner and enable PWM out on channel 6, In advanced parameters RC6_FUNCTION change from a 0 to a 1 and write parameters. You should then be able to control tilt using the paddle on the controller. You must configure the endpoints using the Tarot Software i.e. how much to tilt, alignment and so fourth..

Great I'm going to get my tools and star that's the only thing I need just the the black and red wired what else?

Here I made a quick schematic you will need to solder 2 grounds 1 power wire and 1 signal wire,

4 wires in all.

Yeah im online all night I work online so yup im here

 

[DromoCR]

Yeah im online all night I work online so yup im here

Kool what I'm going to do is open it and I will send you the picture of my solo motherboard and the tarot motherboard so you can point me the correct wire with different color

 

[DromoCR]

Better?

 

[XevetS]

Better?

Do not touch any of that
look at the mainboard where it breaks out in the auxiliary port do you see it? 0ver 20 solder points

This

 

[DromoCR]

Yes see it

 

[XevetS]

Yes see it

First point on left is power that goes to red lead power on the gimbal its labeled 1 Have you done this type of stuff before?

Yea I have done it just I don't wanna damage it

Ok just dont apply to much heat use fine wires and tape them down afterwards when all are soldered in place.

Okay I install everything you told me s blue light light up on the tarot what's it mean and I coulnt find the pwm to enable

DO NOT CONNECT SOLO BATTERY WHILE USB IS CONNECTED FROM GIMBAL TO COMPUTER!

From the manual

5. LED Indicators

Y: Yellow，B: Blue，R: Red，G: Green Double Blinking Yellow Initialization successfully performed. Solid Yellow Initialization incomplete. Keep gimbal stationary. Blinking Blue Receiver connected, or PC software connected (normal) Solid Blue Receiver not connected (normal) Solid Red Angle out of range or an error has occurred. Making sure GoPro has been mounted on the gimbal and is level when powering up may help. Solid Green Over current. After taking corrective action, reconnect power to recover from error.

First off what version of SOLO firmware are you running?

Go into mission Planner and In advanced parameters search for "RC6_FUNCTION" change from a 0 to a 1 and write parameters
