Since I bought the frame with the installed TBS Core, I am not adding in the EzOsd system I used on the HT-FPV. I kept the 3.5mm bullet conectors between the ESC's and the motors for now but i will likely solder these up after the first couple of flights. The first part of the build was to assemble the motors and ESC's on the DJI arms. As is they are smooth so for now I have simply lubricated them with Scorpion lube. I have purchased a set of abec3 replacement bearings from in the event they start "noising up" or if vibration starts to creep in. In flight they are smooth and never come down warm. On balance check, almost none was needed. The quality is way up with extra large bearings and a nice prop adapter feature where the motor shaft is threaded (4mm) and the bell has a step for the prop to sit on. This new motor is unlike any other HK motor I have seen. Since I recently added a Brushless Gimbal the weight has gone up considerably so I have changed the motors to the HK AX2810Q, 750Kv units. They perform very well once balanced but the Kv was a little higher than I wanted. The original motors were HK NTM28-26 1000Kv units. With the new SimonK ESC's it works well and it is very smooth. Like on my other quad I chose parts that were consistently used by others with reliable results. These notes then describe how I put together some the components I selected in this frame. #Tbs discovery pro gimbal frame manualThe HT-FPV build got all the set-ups defined and understood and proved to some degree, the compatability and reliability of the chosen components.Īs in the HT-FPV build,I do not describe in these notes the basic frame assembly as the frame maker has a very good, easy to understand manual which covers everything needed. These build notes are brief and only cover some of the things I found important or a good practice.

On a tight Model you may have to either sand down the inside of the Frame if it's a problem to insert the Camera in general or sand down/remove the Tab in the rear if you can't get the Camera to be inserted flush. On a loose Model you may add a few layers of Electrical Tape between the Gimbal and the Frame causing the Frame to bend inwards and thus increasing friction between it and the Camera. Connect the GoPro Cable coming from the IMU to Camera.ĭepending on the 3D Print you may receive a Model that is rather tight or loose.Insert Camera into Frame - The Camera needs to be flush with the Frame.Reattach the bottom Part of the Gimbal.Insert the Frame into the Gimbal from the bottom - Depending on the accuracy of the 3D Print you may have to use Sanding Paper or a Hobby Knife to get a good fit.Use some Electrical Tape to keep the IMU Cable in the center of the Corner - The Cable will later be held in place by the Tape and the Tape by the Frame allowing for carefree installation of the Camera.The Camera is being held by both friction and additionally by a Tab that clips into the right back side of the Camera next to the Battery Cover.Īccording to my own recent observation the Frame, with a Camera Inserted, can also prevent the Gimbal from being bend to Kingdom Kong in the event of a Crash as all three Components ( Gimbal, Frame & Camera ) will effectively turn into a rather sturdy Construction.
