A possible use case would be the larger STOL craft that some of us use for FPV touch-and-go practice, where ground manoeuvring is part of the game and drag is not a major worry. But Timber-type planes do stumble and flip over, so a protective cage would probably be required.

Thanks Lee, we will work harder☺thank you very much for your careful explanation and detailed introduction.

Slaving the yaw to move with the turn is actually a great idea to get around the lag when not in FPV mode, but I'd guess it doesn't get rid of the bad jitters completely at higher speeds. How they can potentially address that is definitely a concern people should know about before thinking this is a good solution for any RC car. It would seem to be fine on any crawler though. I've had to just physically lock the yaw and use a separate servo for panning.

Looks like a great bit of kit. Thanks Lee.

FPV RC cars are a blast, looks like great fun. If you keep that gimbal i would mount it to the floor of the car so you drop it further down, then you could make a small roll cage for the top of it.😎

ive been engaged in conversation with them about needing a new mode for flying on an fpv wing and they are very stubborn about taking feedback (from me at least) I suggested a new follow mode thats similar to locking the gimbal but still stabilises vibration and jerky movements but follows the plane in pitch roll and yaw (but smoothly) whilst still allowing stick imputs to pan and tilt so head tracking or stick control could move it off centre - (i love being able to look into turns when im flying fpv wing) anyway ive ended up designing a servo based pan and tilt for my ar wing pro as these guys just didnt want to listen.... maybe they will listen more intently to feedback from a big youtuber like yourself. :)

Generally seems that's pretty good 👍How does that gimbal do in a roll? Can you invert it or does it glitch out? Seems to be almost plug and play but maybe ditch those vibration dampening things. Anyone looking at this should also look at the storm32 gimbals. Many more configuration options, but also 100% diy so be ready to build stuff

Hello Lee. I would love to see you trying out a little head tracking with this device on a fixed wing.

I'm very interested in this, thanks!

I tried this 3 years ago in the video "Gimbal stabilised FPV RC car driving", the difference between stabilised and non-stabilised FPV RC car driving is night and day, so much more fun to drive when the FPV camera is stabilised.

I'd love to see how a properly organised race would go with FPV cars like this.

Brilliant modification Lee; my HEQ Gimbal has now been ordered for my own WLToys 104016 upgrade 😁.

Awesome, I was looking at doing something like this on my rover but hadn’t worked out any details yet

Brilliant, Lee! Really well done! 😃 If you have another carbon fiber board and some long enough spacers, you can easily protect it! Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Fantastic video Lee! I'm super excited to try that setup. I do have a vista setup on my traxxas slash, but being able to see going into the turn would be a game changer. Thanks again for the video.

i've put a gimbal on a rc car and it was not good....i kept thinking it has to move with or before steering.....and thats what you did..and it works awesome.

unique setup...

Really cool, I wonder what else can be done to minimize vibration, maybe some suspension rig for the gimbal?

I really want to try this on a street car on a track. Less bounce, more speed.

I love fpv... and just started with rc cars... im actually surprised that rhere arent off the shelf fpv set ups for cars yet. Im interetsed in a walksnail set up, but like u say... off road buggies are useless without some sort of gimbal or you cant see anything with the image is so shakey

I think you can use M4 flathead screws with locknuts to stop the vibration isolators from popping off. That's what GEPRC did on their CT and CL frames.

I will Installed in a RMRC Anaconda. Ia the perfect plane for this.

Fantastic gimbal, now i just have to time travel 2 years from now and get it for an affordable price😅

I did order one of these gimbals and I’m planning on putting it on my x500 holybro “camera” drone

Lee that has stunning potential for filming rc rock crawlers in action, can the gimbal take a small action camera like a thumb

Possible to use this with headtracking? 3 axis head tracking would be an improvement over pan and tilt systems while flying

I see in the manual it says it has mavlink support and it has a serial port. This would allow features like POI. Does Ardupilot support it?

Does the DJI O3 with its integrated stabilization not do the same thing without a gimbal?

Wow comment stayed there 👍

I like my barf bag badass gimbal fpv gimbal

Hi Lee, Great video and information about your rc car, I told you driving a rc car is a blast to play with. But im not wanting to change the looks of the car i do like how its was a slave to the steering, that is what im wanting to do. I still love the shaking of the hard mount, i go wheeling and thats how it feels going down a trail. Thanks again for the update and video.
