unstable when tilting to 90 degrees for- or backwards

highbiker

Hello,

I've a question about increasing the working angles of my gimbal.
If the frame of my gimbal is tilted forward or backwards for more than 45° degrees, the yaw and roll axes will swing and the gimbal is unstable. If I go clearly over 90° it gets stable again. The activation of the second IMU (onboard, above yaw) didn't solve the problem. But I've seen videos where tilting up to 90° is possible with a SimpleBGC. Have you got any advise for me?

My config:
homemade handheld gimbal for garmin virb ultra 30 with axes-order: camera->pitch->roll->yaw
SimpleBGC 32 tiny Rev. B (with encoder option but encoder disabled)
first IMU under the camera, second IMU (onboard) above yaw.
follow mode is disabled.

thank you in advance and kind regards

Hello,
I found the solution myself. I had to load the firmware without encoders (make sure that you uncheck "Show compatible firmwares only" in the gui). Now my gimbal works like a charm and as expected.

Thanks for the answer.
I had exactly the same issue and did what you suggested and all was well.

Hello, does perhaps anybody know a solution with encoders? My 2 axis gimbal gets unstable on roll and pitch, when the camera looks down for more than 80°. FW tested starting with 2_61 to2_68

Same problem here.
