All this tech coming out, Fun stuff!!!! What a time to be alive!!!!!

[@bonafidepirate]

Definitely! I've always liked learning new things and digging into new tech, and there seems to be no shortage of that lately... lol

[@fordboyzzzz]

nice, only vid on youtube, saw it here first!! thanks

[@adamsugataghy3199]

Is it possible to fine tuning the gimbal's movement? Watching the on-board video, the camera moves too suddenly, disturbingly...

[@rcaddict9558]

I love new tech from caddx! Amazing quality and view, great explanation ❤❤

[@AndyRCchannel]

How does the camera mount? Will it take a DJI V1 camera and will the cable work?

[@MCsCreations]

It's probably incompatible, Andy. But I believe Lee showed a gimbal that is!

[@MCsCreations]

Amazing flying and footage, Keith!!! 😃 It looks amazing! Thanks for the review!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@3v1Bunny]

this 4k recording is amazing .. gimbal too but damn with this lighting it is cinematic!

[@bonafidepirate]

Yep, I was impressed too... lol Having the stable image with the gimbal lets the video quality really show through. It makes a nice setup pairing the Moonlight with the Gimbal.

[@tmc-fpv]

​@@bonafidepirateplus you get the full resolution as there's no need for GF zooming

[@dcabrick]

Awesome gimbal! Top notch video and setup too!

[@wtfmimshag]

Great video. I wonder if head tracking through the uart will resolve the jitter once they get that released

[@dronepilot260rc]

This is amazing! I’d love to attach an analog cam for FPV and then a Runcam thumb pro for the 4k

[@chrisshepherd8082]

Thats a great little gimbal way better than the one i got from banggood 6 years ago for about £50 haha

[@ioannisbatas1614]

Superb !!!

[@HrDux]

Nice gimbal. I almost ordered one until I found out the DJI O3 doesn't fit.

[@traxfpv]

Awesome video. Always wanted to do a setup like this. Is head tracking available if you use DJI Goggles 2 or only Walksnail?

[@jadelfpv3839]

Esto es lo que necesitamos para el Fpv y que de resultados satisfactorios .Ya estaba bien de tanto ocultismo.🤜🤛👌👌👍

[@nighthawkvs]

Love to have the .stl for the gimbal tray. :)

[@bonafidepirate]

Sure thing! I'll upload it in a bit, remind me of I forget! lol

[@bonafidepirate]

Uploaded here - www.thingiverse.com/thing:6678725 I included two, one with 20x20mm mounting for the VTX, the other with 25x25mm

[@jorgermartinez]

​@@bonafidepiratethanks!

[@nighthawkvs]

@@bonafidepirate Thank you so much. It will be put to work. :)

[@dgfpv1988]

How do you control the gimbal?

[@RCCrawlerDroneSC]

SHOW SHOW SHOW

[@EnglishTurbines]

Great job m8, looked really nice....Can you smooth out the panning motion using servo slow in Edge TX?....🤔🤔😏🇬🇧

[@ehsankeshtgar6734]

Thanks for the video. How do you overlay your OSD on the video in this digital system? I have dji airunit and the same process might work for me . Cheers

[@bonafidepirate]

I use a tool from avsaase - github.com/avsaase/walksnail-osd-tool It's made for Walksnail. I don't know if there's anything similar for DJI.

[@chrisshepherd8082]

Do you find you can adapt quickly to the stabilisation for landing etc or does it take a while to get rhe hang of it, i know you can see the nose of the aircraft which must help alot.

[@bonafidepirate]

It was a little disorienting flying with the gimbal in stabilized modes at first, but I got used to it after a few flights. It's easy flying in cruise or something like that where the FC does all the hard work... lol

[@willay747]

Nice video! Love the Gimbal,, I need one asap! :P Can you share the 3D tray you made to put everything on? Thanks!

[@bonafidepirate]

Yep, uploaded here! lol www.thingiverse.com/thing:6678725

[@willay747]

@@bonafidepirateThanks 😊

[@ebikefe]

Can you describe you paired (the wiring) BOTH a 4k Moonlight VTX/DVR board with the standard V1 VTX at 1:46? Edit - found it - wasn't aware there was a separate video board.

[@bonafidepirate]

It's the "stand alone" Moonlight DVR that doesn't come with a VTX, and is meant to be used with a VTX you already have. Check this, the "Moonlight Camera" option. caddxfpv.com/products/walksnail-moonlight-kit?variant=48665283166510&aff=59

[@lookingupforjesus]

Hi there Bonafide. It's been quite a bit since I've messed around with R/C flying, and FPV. I still have all my aircraft, but very dated electronics. I have the Eagletree Vector FC, which in my research, isn't supported anymore. I would like to re set up at least 2 of my aircraft to fly again. One is an EyeFly Black Manta Quad, and the other is a Skyhunter. I would appreciate any advice... starting from scratch. Thank you.

[@elouiseeverett3986]

I'll jump in and recommend for fixed wing a Matek flight controller like F405-Wing V2 and Inav 7.

[@theflyingsandalrc]

Even better deal are the speedy bee f405, all the functionality plus wireless configuration

[@TA-td9gd]

In my copter FC (Speedybee F7 V3) I got 2 free UART left, can I connect the gimbal to one of the free UART to controll it ? (Did not find anything on the Caddx page at this date so far)

[@nucleo1772]

amazing :))

[@jas-FPV]

Pwm input with 4 cables? Are we living in 1980 ????

[@RespekTlakse]

Will it take a DJI O3 air unit caméra ??? Nice vidéo 😎🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

[@tmc-fpv]

19mm cameras. It comes with the camera backing plate attached

[@riggerss4]

is this compatible with Motionsic Tally-ho 2?

[@fordboyzzzz]

I just ordered one through your link - it made the price about 15 cheaper, I hope you get a lil bit from them too, cheers again. oh and also keen on stl file please.

[@bonafidepirate]

Thanks! It is an affiliate link so I get credit for it... lol Here's the STL for the printed tray - www.thingiverse.com/thing:6678725

[@ReX_PL_DE]

@@bonafidepirate Danke für die Datei. Hab heute die 2-Achsen Version bestellt.

[@vincehogg8935]

Interesting regarding the jitter you are getting. It sounds exactly the same as Im getting on the HEQ gport gimbal. As you say, without input it dosent happen. I thought it may be something in PWM signal so I connected a servo on the same output and it was rock solid. Makes we wonder if there are common components/firmware in this and the gport. Look carefully and you can see the jitter. Im also getting terrible level horizon drift on the gport. kzbin.infoNgLc_4MHgZo?si=Lfcn_hI8_7gmd8iT

[@slappomatthew]

caddex for the win. just crushing it. so much cool stuff. Suck it dji

[@markgerard363]

No disrespect intended, but would you please take this video on a bit more challenging conditions... weather was to darn good!!
