  • 01. Does the Gremsy S1V3 support Pixhawk FC?
    Yes, it supports both single RC control and auto mission via Pixhawk control.
  • 02. How to setup with Pixhawk FC?
    1.   Connect the Gimbal’s COM2 port to one of the autopilot’s Serial/Telemetry ports like Telem2 as shown above.

    Connect with a ground station and set the following parameters:

    •       MNT_TYPE to “4” for “SToRM32 MavLink”
    •       SERIAL2_BAUD to “115” for 115200 bps. “SERIAL2” can be replaced with another serial port (i.e. SERIAL1) depending upon the physical connection
    •       SERIAL2_PROTOCOL to 2 for “MAVLink2”
    •       SR2_EXTRA1 to 10
    •       SR2_POSITION to 10

    The gimbal’s maximum angles can be set using these parameters:

    To control the gimbal’s lean angles from a transmitter set:

    •       MNT_RC_IN_TILT to 6 to control the gimbal’s tilt (aka pitch angle) with the transmitter’s Ch6 tuning knob
    •       MNT_RC_IN_ROLL to some input channel number to control the gimbal’s roll angle
    •       MNT_RC_IN_PAN to some input channel number to control the gimbals’ heading
