    Disclaimer: the LEDs are NOT part of the gimbal and are a separate accessory. Correction: the accessory springs are WEAKER than the stock ones, not STRONGER -- I got that wrong.

      Holy shite, 79.99 each, or 129.99 a set. They seem really nice and if they fit the QX-7 or the Jumper T-6 I would probably get them. I think I paid 29.99 each for hall gimbals for the QX7, but not that quality.

    Pro tip; if you still have your Radiomaster TX16s foam case it comes in, you can flip your radio upside down in it and work on the back without your nice new gimbals rubbing and pushing into the table.

So, to make things more respectable money wise, get the lesser priced version and add the metal gimbals? Gotsta have toothpicks for precision grease applications, qtips for clean up. Or a mini zip tie works super.

    I had noticed the flex on the gimbals of my TX-16s. To compensate, I am VERY careful when I do a calibration and have even gone into Companion and tweaked the calibration data to guarantee a +100 & -100 resting position with no contact with the stick. Other than this, the original gimbals are very good. I can't say that I have noticed any effect from this flex (or other minor flaws of the gimbals) in flight. Still... I am now very tempted by these new gimbals. I really wondered about these gimbals when I firs saw them a few days ago and am glad/unhappy to have seen this video demonstrating their differences. Yes, I am somewhat of a gimbal snob even if I may not have the skill level to truly take advantage of the better hardware.

My gimbals actually feel better than my old Jumper T16, so I won't be replacing them ,unless they break. Yours might be the by-product of inconsistencies of production:-)Then, I will be faced by the decision to buy these. If the radio is still in good operable condition, than I would probably pull the trigger. But so far, all is good with my Radiomaster T16S Max, and I love it.

    I just tested the gimbals in my TX16S (carbon fiber faceplate version) and I get no flex at all. They also don't jitter and I have the ADC filter off. I did just get it a few months ago so maybe that's why?. Running EdgeTX on it. I do really want these gimbals. Sucks they cost more than I paid for the radio but I'm gonna get them. Probably going to have to wait until next year though with Xmas coming up and hopefully getting my Steamdeck soon, my budget for hobbies is tight.

    • @ZuNunchaku
      @ZuNunchaku 3 роки тому

      what temperature range did you talked about? this gimbal (and another hall gimbal) will tend to drift cause by temperature because magnet get weaker/change based on temperature. but afaik is not much at all. so you probably dealing with massive temperature range.

    • @roborrock7945
      @roborrock7945 3 роки тому

      @@ZuNunchaku Actually we are talking about normal operating range (25-30deg C), and its bad enough that it can stop your motor from arming and the throttle does not get low enough. One of the EdgeTX developers tracked it down to poor design, a resistor that was too high and poor magnet orientation. It's led to EdgeTX supporting the much better flysky gimbals in the TX16S

      If you talking about drifting (change overtime/not repetitive value) so either cause by magnet (orientation, placing, etc) or plastic deformation or something like that or noise/cross talking from the cable that cause magnet interference.

    Joshua, you need longer throttle fingers and skinner screwdrivers, especially the screwdrivers, thay was painful to watch the wrong sized tool being used.
    I must be a little weird with the sticks, I reverse the heads so the knurled section is facing the gimbal, and the cone shaped collar is all the way up, to make the sticks as long as possible for a greater length arc for the degrees of movement, for as fine a granularity of control as possible.

    The real upgrade is said to be the FlySky HZCZ03-ADJ gimbals. They require a custom version of EDGE TX but then you get all kinds of voodoo including 4096 steps resolution, 3 axis hall sensor and a temperature. If you plan on running 500hz update rate the added resolution should be win. Please also review the most extravagant solution!@@

    Hi Joshua!
    I have a problem with my quad, I can't use it with a pwm frequency lower than 32Khz. For example, if I use 24Khz, the quad starts to do yaw twitches. I'm not sure what could be causing this problem. All started when I had a Hglrc F722 Fc with a Hglrc Forward 60A 4 in 1 esc on the quad, but the twitches were in the yaw and pitch axis. Later, I decided to change the flight controller, because I thought it could be a bad gyro problem, I installed a Hobbywing xrotor f7 Fc, but the problem didn't go away.
    I'm not sure if I have bad luck with bad gyros or if the esc could be causing it. The flight controller is soft mounted and the esc has a 1000uF capacitor, the build is clean, the frame doesn't have any cracks, it's a new build.
    I saw a video from FlightOne where they talk about yaw twitches and they said that the esc could be causing the problem. The quad is flyable with 32Khz and above, but the motors get hot.
    If I change the esc will the problem solve?
