Gimbal Camera Tilt Control
There is a gimbal tilt mode switch on ST16S labeled “S1.” When the switch is in up/middle position,
the C23 (or other gimbal system) gimbal camera is in Angle Mode. Use the slider (C) on the under-left
side of the ST16S to set the tilt position of the gimbal camera. When the S1 is in the bottom position,
the gimbal camera is in Velocity Mode. When the slider (C) is in the middle position, it means the veloci-
ty rate is 0 for the C23, disabling tilt. When the slider (C) is above the middle position, the C23 will
enable upward tilt/angle. When the slider (C) is below the middle position, the C23 will enable down-
ward tilt. The distance between the slider (C) and the middle position determines the tilt speed, the
further distance, the faster the tilt speed.
CAUTION:
Video recording must be stopped to take still photos. It will take approximately 1-2 seconds
to capture a still photo and before another image may be taken.
CAUTION:
ALWAYS stop recording video before powering down TYPHOON H PLUS to avoid loss of
video data.
NOTICE:
Only when in Velocity mode may the gimbal camera be tilted upwards 15°maximum.
Gimbal Camera Pan Control
The gimbal pan mode switch on ST16S (S2) enables the Follow Mode. When the switch position is UP,
the gimbal camera is in Follow Mode. The pan control of the gimbal camera is disabled when the
switch position is UP. The gimbal camera will adjust its pan direction per the aircraft’s movements.
When the switch is in the middle position, the gimbal camera is in Follow Pan Controllable Mode, the
gimbal camera will adjust its pan direction per the aircraft’s movements. Use the Pan Control Knob to
set the pan position of the gimbal camera. When the switch position is down, the gimbal camera is in
Global Mode. The pan direction of the gimbal camera will be fixed regardless of the aircraft’s move-
ments. Use the Pan Control Knob to set the pan position of the gimbal camera.

Proportional Control Rate Slider
The Proportional Control Rate Slider located on the right side of
the ST16S Ground Station allows you to set the overall climb/de-
scend and directional control rates.
Fly low and slow initially. Slow (Low Speed) position, the lowest
control rates, is ideal for precision flight. High-speed (High
Speed) position is used when transiting broad areas.
