I've soldered in a programmer and changed one of the pots to a three position switch. I didn't have this problem until I put the gimbals in though, I used in for around 6 weeks before I put the gimbals in without any problems. Calibrated the voltage in the setup. Max voltage is 12.6v, when I recharg...

I am not sure if this has been asked before, sorry if it has I couldn't find it with a search. I have replaced the gimbals in my turnigy 9x with Aurora 9 gimbals. They work really well and I have a turnigy 11.1v lipo battery. If the voltage gets below 12v, any beep will make the tx reset. Before I c...

Thanks for the help. It has messed with my small brain a little. Joåo, I tried exactly what you attached last night and I couldn't see any effect but today it was working. I think maybe I didn't have the time for long enough, either that or I was having a moment and put it on the wrong channel! It w...

I replaced a pot because the gimbal needs a three position switch, up, down and stationary. I could use two, two position switches but it is easier to have it on one which I have swapped location with the throttle hold switch as that lines up better with the finger I use. I have tried the slow up/do...

Hi all, I have replaced one of my pots with a momentary switch for controlling a gimbal tilt. I have it set up as stick rate within the gimbal software and I have dropped the turn rate to give me a nice tilt speed. I did this before I flashed the 9x with erx9 so this was an easy way to get the resul...

If anyone in Europe can help that would be great. I am changing my 9x mode 2 so I have a spring loaded throttle because I only use it with Naza. I have the plastic part on the way from Australia but I am not confident it will get to Portugal. If anyone has either a gimbal/complete TX/spring/plastic ...

Hi All, Can anyone tell me the size of the gimbal springs or where to get them in Europe? I am changing my mode 2 9X to centering throttle because I only fly multirotors with NAZA, I have the part on the way from RCtanks but I can't find the spring spec anywhere. If someone has a complete gimbal to ...

I use the psp joystick, it works very well. very precise control with the Tarot brushless gimbal. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/cr8tive_leo/tarot%20wiring/th_psppotstickb.jpg http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/cr8tive_leo/tarot%20wiring/th_psppotstick.jpg Thanks for the help. Just tryi...

I am going to add a joystick to the back of my 9x to control a 3 axis gimbal hung below my multirotor. I will use the feeds from two pots for this. Anyone else done this and have any advice? I have seen it done with a PS2 joystick but it looked a bit complicated!

Is this what I need then?

I don't want to start another thread and clog up the forum so I will ask here. I am patting myself in the back a bit. I swapped two of the pots for three position switches, one on the back right for IOC in Naza and one on the back left with a momentary switch for gimbal control, I swapped that with ...

I'll start saving the money for a smartie parts board then! They do post to Portugal but with no tracking number, I am not sure how that will work with the customs and postal service here. It is hard enough getting anything to my address as it is !

Ola João, tudo bem? OK, thanks for the advice. I have emailed smartie parts to see if they deliver to Portugal but I haven't had a response yet. I am pretty sure my soldering skills won't be good enough to do the soldering required for the programmer, I have had a look and it looks far to small for ...

OK thanks, I will have a look in here for the info on the programmer port.

Hi,
Yes I am using the stock firmware, would I be able to assign the 3 position switch without doing a mix with the upgraded firmware? I am changing a pot to a three position switch and another pot to a momentary three position switch as well to control the gimbal.

Hi all, I am quite new to the hobby. I fly multicopters and have a standard 9x v2. I have the fmode and gear switchs set up for the flight modes and fail safe for NAZA on channels 5 and 6 (mix). I am using the hov thr for IOC and hov pit for gimbal control on 7 and 8. The TX is set up as heli. My qu...
