Hello from Germany and I came with a big university project. :)

Hi guys,

my name is Christian and I am really new the the world of Gimbal systems. I am 29, studying mechanical engineering at the RWTH University in Aachen, Germany. Currently I am working on a big project for university that is dealing with the development of a camera stabilization system (on only one axis). Unfortunately it has nothing to do with multicopter or helicopters, but I believe this community may be a really good place to share my results and get possible help of the pros developing professional gimbal systems. :) I hope that you can benefit from my results as much as the other way around. :)

P.S. My interest in multirotor aerial platforms is quite big! I think I will start getting my hands on one of these systems right after my work at the university is done. :)
 


Thanks Andrew!

I already tried the sparkfun board, but I am not good at programming and my final control-board was just not good enough. Besides it got burned some days ago.

My time is running away and I needed a working stabilization system that is as small and light as possible. That is the reason why I chose Hoverfly gimbal. I hope to get my work done with it, but I am pretty optimistic! :)

If you are also looking at the mount mechanics as well then direct drive would be the best route.
Can you suggest any direct drive? That would be great! It needs to rotate a Go Pro Hero, as I mentioned in my other thread. (http://www.multirotorforums.com/sho...-speed-Servo-(Savox)-for-continuous-rotation) And it needs to be as light as possible.

Christian
