Interference of the external enviroment?
Updating this thread: I know this has been a very dissapointing issue for those suffering it. I just finished testing the new Extended board with the CAN IMU sensor, it completely solved the EMI interference problem! I replaced the old 32bit board …

Encoder benefits
Encoder: - Increased motor torque - Save a lot of battery current - Precision increase. - Electronics "knows" mechanically the actual position of every axis. I consider encoders as a must for mid-to-big size camera/gimbals The only pro i …

Other than this big problem my basecam gimbals work like a charm. I gave up on solving it on standard 32bit board with i2c IMU sensors. I was unable to solve the EMI problem no matter what i tried, i dedicated lot of effort but no luck. Having big…

Garug, "1. are the motors ok. resistance between all motor pins should be about the same and there should not be any connection to motor metal parts." Yes, always check resistance between phases. All ok thru all the gimbals that had the p…

Garug, I will setup a series of tests to check if theres any change in the behaviour of the impact of the interference, i will try also to install some type of telemetry in order to live monitor the i2c errors beyond bluetooth range, got a couple of…

EMI is the only thing i could correlate with the problem on the gimbals, i have followed other people in forums going thru the same problem. Rasec whom originated this thread described what happend with his Basecam gimbal as well (not happening with…

Take a look to this video, this is what it happens from the camera point of view. In this case i was flying the gimbal with a single rotor helicopter. I took off with the tail pointing the city, gimbal heading towards the river. EMIs coming from the…

"If you have I2C errors, then it is clear, those will cause problems. Some boards and IMUs are more sensitive for them. The 'BaseCam SimpleBGC 32-bit' has been very good, I have had no I2C problems with it, not even with long and unpr…

Tompa, Did you have always i2C errors or as described above?

Discard the turbulence issue, it happens at ground level even removed from the copter on its own power source as well. There was a time that i took the gimbal to particular spot in the city where this problem occurred right after turning on not even…

Hi Garug, Thanks for your reply. Nothing to do with pressure or dampening. It happens 30mts or even at ground level with no wind but always near congested cities or downtown, impossible to shoot there. Take a look to this video (not mine, just found…

Exactly same problem here. After a certain height gimbal gets completely crazy, sometimes even at ground level. This happens always shooting in downtown locations, nothing happens far from the city or in the countryside. Once gimbal gets completely …
