Hello!
I’m in the process of setting up a drone, specifically focusing on configuring gimbal. However, the Camera Gimbal parameters in MissionPlanner are unavailable for adjustment. I’ve tried every possible firmware version and setting variation related to this. Could you let me know what I might be missing? Thanks
Use the latest Mission Planner and the latest firmware. And do not mess with that.
If it does not work, use the full parameter list instead. The parameters are there.
Thank you for response!
However, I still think the issue lies in the absence of the corresponding variables. QGroundControl is also indicating this. Do you happen to know how to access them?
The variables are still there, they just now have are called MNT1_* instead of MNT_*
That is of course only if Mount support is compiled in.
Was it compiled in?
Which FC are you using?
Which FW version?
From custom.ardupilot.org ?
Was it compiled in?
If I got it correct, I’ve attached a screenshot with current parameters
Which FC are you using?
Pixhawk 2.4.8
Which FW version?
I tried many versions. Now I’ve returned to ArduCopter V.4.5.7 and MissionPlanner 1.3.82
From custom.ardupilot.org ?
No, I am using the common firmwares
As you can see the parameters are there and can be configured using the Full Parameter List
Okay, anyway my second purpose is using MavLink Gimbal v2 protocol for testing. Could you advise where this can be configured?
Hi @qsivey,
As mentioned in a PM, I think you’ll want to use MNT1_TYPE = 6 (Gremsy) and 1. CAM1_TYPE = 6 (MAVLinkCamV2)
Sadly MP’s camera gimbal setup screen hasn’t kept up with the flight code. I hope we can fix that eventually but until then it’s the full parameter list that must be used
Txs!
