Full camera gimbal control with app?

carlos najera · Dec 17, 2014

I´ve preorder my Inspire One and l was wodering if youll be abe to control the camera gimbal it from the App not just tilt also the 360 degres rotation. Specially since i preorder the inspire 1 with one controler and im used to tilt the camera on the visión App while a friend flys it. Do you think this will be possible?

With tilt, sure. Not with yaw though. DJI have stated that if you want t yaw the camera then you need two transmitters for dual operator mode.

i hope they release an update in the future it would be nice to have that feature. maybe add a virtual joystiq to do that.

The App has been updated. Now as a single operator, you can touch the screen and a blue circle will appear under your finger. You can now move your finger and control the tilt and pan of the camera.

Great news Tahoe Ed I'm pretty sure they will add more features to the Inspire One by the time it's released I'm really looking forward for it.

Yes. There's a button on the app you press and it will move the camera back to the forward, front position.

Sure! You would press "Re-alignment" button and this will correct the camera/gimbal. There are a lot of other features available with the camera, such as "Follow Me" "FPV Mode" and "Free Mode" ...

Tahoe Ed · Dec 28, 2014

No follow me. Yes to the FPV and Free Modes. The camera controls are amazing compared to what we have experienced in the past. From 3-4 channels to virtually unlimited channels of control is unheard of up until this point. I have not experienced it. You tell me if you have that level of control on any camera that you have currently. My guess is no and if so only on the ground and not in the air. Great system. I am getting a new version tomorrow that is near production. DJI says production but I am leery. I will let you know. PS I am getting a case as well. I will be flying with it on Tuesday from Las Vegas to Reno. I will let you know how it goes with TSA and the carrier, Southwest.

You can program the C1 or C2 switches on the back of the Tx for this function as well as several others.

Here is a video that I did with the Inspire handheld gimbal at CES. It will give you an indication of what you can do with the Inspire App.

How do I program the C1 and C2 switches to alternately allow pan and tilt of the camera? I can get to the remote control screen that gives a pull down menu...would love to be able to use the little wheel on the back of the remote to either pan or tilt the camera after I push either of the C1 or C2 buttons.

Thanks

Scroll down to the bottom of the remote controllers options page for C1. It's hidden. The bottom option will give you your choice of pan or tilt from the C1 switch

As above and works well, my C1 is set to change pan or tilt and my C2 is set to gimbal position reset in case I don't know which way the quad is facing.

Exactly how I set mine up.
