The SimpleBGC controller and accompanying 2-axis and 3-axis gimbals can be
purchased from
basecamelectronics.com
and many other retailers.
Connecting the gimbal to the Flight Controller
Although the SimpleBGC can be connected using PWM (similar to the Tarot gimbal) we
recommend using the serial interface connected to one of the flight controller’s
Serial/Telemetry ports like Telem2 as shown above.
Setup through the Ground Station
Set the following parameters through your ground station and then reboot the flight
controller:
•
MNT_TYPE
to 3 / “AlexMos-Serial”
•
SERIAL2_PROTOCOL
to 7 / “AlexMos Gimbal Serial” (Notee “SERIAL2” should be
“SERIAL1” if using Telem1 port, SERIAL4 if using Serial4/5, etc)
