Dual motors connection ?
You can do this buy pairing wires from each motor 2 by 2 and soldering together. The motors should turn in opposite directions (so they go the same way when they face each other), this is quite easy to check because when wired together if you turn o…

spare IMU cables ?
Ok so i got in touch with basecam, they said they don't have my exact type of cable. After some research it turns out pretty much every manufacturer uses their own different i2c connector ... My board is from Quanum and its pretty much impossib…

YAW axis spinning continuously and red dot on SimpleBCG GUI Yaw axis going crazy
I had a similar issue, though it would happen with all three dials. Turns out i have a bad cable and there is a bad connection with the IMU. Is the green light on one of the sensors flickering or switching off during power on ? The connections on …

Board works fine for approx. 1 min, then sensors freeze, any ideas ? is my board fried ?
Thanks for the reply ! everything looks fine cosmetically with cable and connectores, though there is a bit of play in the connection on the frame IMU which links to the camera IMU. if i tug on the cable a bit the connector moves out a bit (1 or 2m…

turnigy 5208 - unreliable motors ?
also would you recommend going for a higher pole count than 14 for the pitch axis ? i get the feeling this axis needs a lot of precision to feel smooth, will this help ?

turnigy 5208 - unreliable motors ?
you're right, it's glued together and impossible to repair. all the soldering is on the hidden side at the back making it not possible to unwind. the motor is already dead anyway. too bad :( i will get a new motor and go for a more expens…

turnigy 5208 - unreliable motors ?
i don't think i need to remove the bearings, just the green stator. its enameled so i don't want to scratch it. I can't unwind and rewind the wire easily without seperating it from the rest because i don't have access to the back…

turnigy 5208 - unreliable motors ?
thanks ! yes i think with careful note-taking it shouldn't be too much trouble to wind it back exactly the same. yes, I managed to seperate the stator from the rotor, indeed the magnets were pretty strong, i now need to get the green enameled …

turnigy 5208 - unreliable motors ?
it seems that i used screws that were a bit too long, the coils below are damaged. Warranty probably won't work so i'll have a go at hand winding them. It looks tedious but pretty straight-forward. I'm having trouble getting them open…

turnigy 5208 - unreliable motors ?
Hi, thanks for the quick reply ! I'll try testing the motors once i get my hands on a multimeter. The winding on them doesn't look great... Some of the coils are quite fat and neighboring ones touch in places. Could this be part of the pr…

PITCH axis rotating 40 degrees up after I click "Write"
I'm still working on my first gimbal but this was always a calibration issue for me. Is your pitch dial flat in software when camera is pitched 40° ? If so turn off the motors and then hit calibrate acc with everything flat and level (frame and…
