Alexmos 32-bit Brushless Gimbal Controller – Basecam

Posted on by — Leave a comment

32 bit Alexmos Brushless Gimbal Controll newest 32-bit Generation. This board is to controll 3Axis brushless Camera Gimbals. We developed our Board to work with 3S-6S We have used special driver IC´s to controll the Motor Driver, that helps to keep te mosfet cool during high current. So it is possible to use 3A for each Motoroutput. The used Fets we used offering a good safety margin. Our harware support coming softwarefeatures. Like "Reference IMUs", ... To configure the board you only need the USB Port and the Basecam Software (Windows, OSX, Linux) which you can find here: http://www.basecamelectronics.com/ Or you can use a bluetooth module on the UART Port. Technical details: Voltage: 3S-6S Currant for each motor: 3A board dimensions: 50x50 Hole spacing: 45x45 product contens: - 32bit 3axis Board - MPU6050(Sensor) - I2C cable for Sensor - Basecam Software Licence

A new algorithm for increased reliability when motor misses steps:  PID gain is decreased, POWER is increased to restore synchronization

Alexmos SimpleBGC Firmware 2.4

 

New menu commands to turn motors ON/OFF.

 Follow for the PITCH+ROLL and YAW axis can be activated independently

Alexmos Firmware 2.4 New Follow Mode Options

 

New realtime visual bar to display the actual POWER level.

2.40b6

Firmware: SimpleBGC_2_40b6.enc.hex (86Kb 4.02.2014)

GUI (Windows, OS X, Linux): SimpleBGC_GUI_2_40.zip (5Mb 4.02.2014)
User manual: SimpleBGC_manual_2_4_eng.pdf (428Kb 2.02.2014)

  • Bug fixed: some parameters are always kept their default values regardless of GUI setting
  • A new algorithm for increased reliability when motor misses steps:  PID gain is decreased, POWER is increased to restore synchronization
  • Follow mode was completely rewritten:
    •  speed can be adjusted in wide range by the “SPEED” setting
    •  acceleration limiter is applied
    •  LPF smoothing is applied (configured in the “RC setting” tab)
    •  Follow for the axes PITCH+ROLL and YAW  can be activated independently
    •  Follow for ROLL axis may be permanently enabled or disabled regardless of camera PITCHing:  to disable completely, set “ROLL start”=90, “ROLL mix”=0, to enable set “ROLL start=0”, “ROLL mix=0”.   (Note, that proper Follow offset calibration for ROLL is required now)
  • Up to 5x more precision with the new PID (increase I-term until oscillation starts and than reduce a little back to get the maximum from it)
  • New menu commands to turn motors ON/OFF.
  • (GUI): new setting for additional POWER in case of big error (caused by missed steps).
  • (GUI): new visual bar to display the actual POWER level.
  • (GUI): new setting to enable estimation of the frame angle from motor’s poles in the Lock mode, like in the Follow mode before. Helps to increase the range of  frame angles where gimbal’s operation is stable.
