Trouble Shooting
PROBLEM | POSSIBLE CAUSES | SOLUTION |
---|---|---|
Status LED is blinking red | Low battery | Recharge battery |
Status LED is solid red during startup | Camera is not balanced well or not installed | Check camera balancing |
IMU cable is loose | Check in software for IMU sensor error, re-seat IMU sensor connector | |
Tilt motor cable or encoder cable is loose | Check in software for Tilt error, re-seat tilt motor connector and encoder connector | |
Roll motor cable or encoder cable is loose | Check in software for Roll error, re-connect roll motor connector and encoder cable | |
Pan motor cable or encoder cable is loose | Check in software for Pan error, re-connect pan motor connector and encoder cable | |
IMU sensor cable is loose | Re-seat IMU sensor connector | |
Excessive gyro drift | Re-calibrate Gyro | |
Oscillation in one or more axes | Stiffness setting is too high | Reduce stiffness |
Thumbscrew/top bar nut is not tightened | Check tightening | |
Camera mounting is not stiff enough | Check camera mounting | |
Filters settings are incorrect: Gyro and output filter should only be changed if other methods of reducing oscillation have failed | Please read more in manual about Gyro filter and output filter (Advanced settings) | |
Gremsy gimbal seems to be drifting ( >1 degree/1 minutes) | Gyro sensor is drifting too much | Re-calibrate gyro |
Motors seem to be weak | Stiffness is too low | Increase stiffness |
Footage appears to wobble side to side or up and down | Stiffness setting is low | Increase stiffness settings, start with the axis which is poorly stabilized. Higher Stiffness will achieve better stabilization. The tuning process is described in the user manual. |
