Stabilisation Gimbal

[robshaw]

So, Ive got a simple 2 axis gimbal fitted to my quad and have it setup to compensate for forward and backward tilt. (see video).  Obviously this gimbal hasnt got the correct axis to compensate for left and right tilt.  Do any of you know of a gimbal similar to this one which will do left and right stabilisation as well as forward and backward?

Is that a flight view video camera for FPV, or is it recording ?

Both....got a dv recorder to plug into the fat sharks that is connected to. Im guessing your about to tell me its not right.....haha.

Its not a good idea have the flight / fpv camera on a gimbal as you wouldn';t know if you were pitching etc

You should be able to fit one of these if you want to.. might need to turn the top plate upside down.. so it mounts on top rather than bottom.

Ah, right ok. Good point. I must admit, I didn';t feel as in control or ';dialed in'; as I would have liked. Maybe because not feeling the pitching like you say. 

Ive actually just bought a turnigy 9xr so I can have a go at the headtracking function on my attitudes (dx6i i';ve got now wont do it).

My existing gimbal will be fine for that but for stabilisation the one you';ve mentioned looks like it will do the job nicely.
