Thank you mate. You kinda just accidentally helped me out with another project.

The 33 BLE seems to be the way to go. Thanks! PS, I'm still using Fatshark/Trinity.

Fantastic. Those kids that we complained about spending all their time in front of a computer are just killing it now! I noticed on the github link they also have a link for a wireless PWM module for the transmitter connection. (personally, the section for a TX16s is a gift!). These hobbyist single board computers have allowed us to programmatically interact with the physical world, e.g. head tracker. The 33 BLE Sense, in addition to the 9-axis IMU have pressure and temperature. All one needs to do a DIY flight controller is one was crazy enough to do it. (Going to be hard to beat Matek!)

Curious you mentioned Jumper and OpenTX. Does the protocol really matter? Based on your information I assume all you need is any radio that has PPM capability? Protocol is irrelevant. The bottom line is the pan/tilt are simply going to chew up 2 channels from your radio and that’s all. Am I correct? Thanks for making this video. I am seriously interested to do it considering the simplicity of this setup and low cost.

I can't help but wonder, with the invention of small 360 camera is the need for a motorized gimble is coming to an end. The Trick is in the processing, you can't send the entire 360 video stream over the air, there isn't enough bandwidth. So youll need to have the processing done on the camera end (aka in the Drone or plane) and only the footage from the viewing angle you want to see getting transmitted.

Hello, coming back to the firmware flashing issue. I was lucky to get hands on an old ble 33 board (rev1). WIth that board everything works just fine. I then also tried the ble 33 sense (rev2) board. This also works perfect. Turns out the rev 2 board without proximity sensor is problematic. Even with the latest pre release version (finding it on github was a project in itself) was not successful. However, I have two boards working, problem solved 🙂

Firstly, apologies for commenting on a 3 year old video! I have a question about head trackers and pan/tilt gimbals. I noticed on my first flight trialling this exact kit that when I'm banking left or right, the gimbal stays in its original position and doesn't move with the aircraft. Ideally it would need to stay orientated to the direction of travel unless I move my head to look around. Would you know how to resolve this? Cheers

Thank you very much for this project. I need an help for my setup: how do I connect a Futaba radio TJ8 with the head tracker? It seems that Futaba trainer port works with 3 wires not only two as the Arduino output. I would really appreciate your help on this.

hello, many thanks for your video; i was wondering if it was possible to use the dji google2 nativ headtracker to drive a diy gimbal; is it possible to get the signal directly through the O3 air unit? or may be it does not make any sense???

Can you set it up to transmit directly to a reciever controlling pan/tilt on the aircraft? or does it have to go thru the remote control/transmitter?

Not sure what you mean. You need to get the signals to the servos in the model somehow...

thank you for the video and links, i wander .. since i have the original ht from the project made like 8 years ago .. ( no drift head tracker .. ) what had changed ? .. why no bt option ? .. the biggest down side is the added cables .. and with new v2 dji goggles .. it is 2 cables .... i may give it a try anyhow ... thank you !

Well, it seems Arduino Nano Ble is either not in stock or is now $45 to $50 would the nano iot work the same since it also has a 9 axis gyro or perhaps the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense??

Fantastic video, with great information. Just a quick question if I may. I do have a Taranis XD9. But I am wanting to put my FPV setup on a Spektrum DX7s. I have been searching for the Spektrum trainer port voltage output (3.3v?) with no luck. Can you tell me if the Spectrum DX7s is compatible without using resistors? Im sure there are other out there with the Spektrum with the same problem.
