Hardware or software tune problem?
  • Hi all, my DYS gimbal is giving me this issue, raw video:



    using 2.3b5, not sure if this is a Hardware or software problem,
    any advice on how to fix it?

    Thanks!
  • Looks like the yaw is somehow wrongly tuned, maybe basic settings, maybe PID. could also be broken motor. Does it work on ground she operating it in hand?

    there is a strange railing sound, would be good to identify and get rid of it.
  • Yes, works well in hand, going to check all that starting with hardware, thanks!
  • After almost a month of testing, twisting, de-soldering, re-soldering, tightening bolts, de-installing, reinstalling, downgrading, upgrading, lots of frustration, getting crazy, etc, think I almost have it tuned, but not sure if issue is with roll or pitch.



    Now I'm using 2.40b7,
    same 8 bit DYS Smart 3 axis gimbal on Phantom 2,
    No ND filter

    R 13 0.22 18 65 50 14
    P 12 0.29 10 60 50 14
    Y 35 0 35 105 50 14
    No limit -x y

    Any advice?
  • It looks like Roll, but this could be:

    1. unbalanced propellers
    2. insufficien vibration dampening
    3. Sloppy bearing on the gimbal or flex on axis or tubes.

    Not everything can be solved with PID tuning.
  • Thank you Garug,

    1. Checked new propellers before installation, came factory balanced.
    2. Checked, ok.
    3. Checked, ok.

    One detail I found today is that I inverted one arm of gimbal, that way is easier to connect usb/hdmi cable and take gimbal or memory card out, but sensor is a little away from lens, so moved sensor closer to lens, test pending, rainy day today, hope tomorrow will test.

    One question I have is, is this graphic ok? should I increase or decrease I parameter? or any other?
    I'm using it as a base for the other axis too.

  • I am not sure what to look, but I can see 4 things that are not ideal:
    - RC Pitch 2100
    - Power not set
    - What is causing those discontinuities on the graph?
    - I2C errors though 0, is red? Check IMU cable, or it could be some other IMU problem
