Camera pitch servo

1st post. I decided to give Ardupilot a look and fell down the rabbit hole. So far I have managed to get everything working I believe by reading and re-reading the documentation and searching here. I’ve checked everywhere I can think of and still haven’t managed to get a simple pitch servo for my camera working.

I have Copter 4.1.1 installed on a Matek H743 mini. I am using the servo shown in the pics attached to servo pwm out 8 on the Matek.



When I tilt the board or turn the pot I’ve mapped on my Taranis Q x7 (Channel 6) the servo output in MP shows movement. All I can think of is it is a digital servo and/or the timer it is on isn’t fast enough. It is on it’s own timer according to the Matek website.

Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. I’ve run out of options.

check parameter BRD_PWM_COUNT=8

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I was pulling my hair out searching for an answer. I didn’t see any references to that parameter anywhere. Once it was set to 8 both my pot on the radio and attitude of the model give me the desired result. And got an answer at 1:30 am. I figured it would be a day or so at the soonest. Thank you again.
