# SETUP WITH SKYNODE
## 1. Hardware Setup.
## 2. Setting on the remote control.
Zio is compatible with the Remote Control (RC) that supports the QGroundControl app (QGC). In this manual, all settings are made on the Herelink Remote Control, the other controller does the same.
### **SBUS channel settings.**
Zio needs to set up two channels to control the gimbal: one channel is for controlling rotation, and the other is for choosing the controlling axis.
### **Set up channels controlling the gimbal.**
Gimbal rotation control channel: CH6 (or any channels), use the wheel button on the Herelink remote:
Gimbal axis selection channel: CH8 (or any channels), use the camera button on the Herelink remote:
## 3. Setting parameter.
Zio connects to FC at the baud rate of 115200. In case of connecting Zio to FC at any telemetry, note the telemetry setting at the corresponding baud rate. Example for telemetry 2:
```
MAV_1_CONFIG: “TELEM 2”
MAV_2_CONFIG: "EXT2" (401)
MAV_2_MODE: "Gimbal" (10)

SER_EXT2_BAUD: “115200 8N1"
MAV_2_FORWARD: "enable" (1)
MAV_S_FORWARD: "enable" (1)
```
**Set mount params**

MNT_MODE_IN: “RC”
MNT_MODE_OUT: “MAVlink gimbal protocol v2”
MNT_RC_IN_MODE: “1”
MNT_MAN_PITCH: “AUX3”
MNT_MAN_ROLL: “AUX2”
MNT_MAN_YAW: “AUX1”
MNT_RATE_PITCH: "90"
MNT_RATE_YAW: "90"
```
