[/h]Hi all, at the moment im am configuring my picloc3x prov2 -
i started with piclocv1 - and when you place them right - use good servos - and configure them well
they do actually work really good
https://vimeo.com/52945565 - this is our reel (wich is really sad because it wants more hearts
it was all taken with piclocs stabilizing my mount
hints:
run it on 2s
use fast 360 servos (we use the spectrum h6040)
place it close to turning axes
fix it superfixed... we use its own screws to attach it below cam plate
use a superstiff camplate wich will not bend or vibrate
make the arrow point forwards (where your cam looks at
i hope that helps! it should.

messed up the link

i hope this works now - this should be the flycoptic reel 2012 =) I hope you like it

Hehe - thank you George
Well I have seen better reels - with better cameras and awesome scenes - great landscapes - stylish events and stuff =)
But thank you - we have been flying in conditions up to 30km/h wind - wich was no problem for the stabilization.
This weekend i will test the new pl3xpro with 0°C - i´d be surprised if it wont work. I will set the temperature to 10°C in picloc tools
before i start flying - right? Because the heater in picloc wont manage to heat it up to 30°C like it does in my room.

George,
Can you post a link to what ever instructions you have for set-up. Your new website does not have any of the information.

Krleas......butter smooth flying and nice moves !!! ( full fat butter BTW !! LOL !! )
Nice Job.. Really like the zoom in.....
Rene..
Easiest to work with is with potentiometers, and Picloc on Pan Axis.
Harder to tune but may give better accuracy.. On axis with 360 Servos...
I give you options... Every Gimbal+Servos+Camera+Flying style ( and anti-Vibe system) is different.
You make your judgement.
What I can tell you, is that these 2 weeks, I am re-writing a lot of the firmware for more efficiency and minimal extras ( low-fat diet)...to make the firmware leaner, and faster.
Brushless are so fast and responsive, that code should be running at fastest speed possible.
So, with this development, you will notice improvement and higher gains possible, yielding better , more accurate stabi.

Hello, I try at this Time to connect picloc with xbee pro S1.. But it's not getting connected. I simply change DL and MY to 1111 and 2222 (in x-CTU ), same but reversed on the other xbee, and last change bitrate to 115kbps,
In picloctools, go to option, click th xbee box, and then connect.
Nothing append.
Need help thanks

Ok I tried several times with différent configuration, NoT WORKING.
I tried the loop back mode to test xbees and"hello world" was succesfull, after that I tried the xbee datalink with mikrokopter and MKtools, I just changed the datarate to 57kbps and works fine.
So the problem must come from picloc.
George can you Check it please if thé xbee firmware is good ? Or Where can be thé problem ? Thanks.
At this Time picloc seems to receive data but not responding...

Hi Fred....sorry not to have had the possibility to help you with setting up your Xbee's... But it Paid.... now you know very well how they work..it seems. !!!
OK...
So....
1) Set Xbee's to 115200.
2) you must have loaded the XBEE firmware in Picloc
3) connect TX to RX and vice versa.
4) In Toolz, tick the XBEE tickbox ( in Options ) ... Connect button should turn blue. Comport should be that of PC connected Xbee.
5) Connect.....and you should see your breakout board's LED's flash in sympaty with TX RX....and you should see PiclocToolz populating its data in the controls....
OK...

Fred's issue was that the Xbee's were series 1, and did not support 115200 baud.
Its good to know that as of now, both Xbee's Series 2 ( and other models that support higher baud ) and also 3DR radios are supported and work.
PaNt. Not ready to reveal yet. But you're on the right track.

Just to précise thé xbees pro S1 accept thé 115200bauds, but it is not "compatible" with picloc.
no understand why but already ordered S2 to be sûre it works..
