Storm32BGC NT V1.3_F103RC 32-bit Brushless Gimbal Control Board
A part of the review has been auto-translated.
Ok, I'm going to give a deep description about this, specially on how to flash it. first I received the controller and plugged it to my pc, downloaded storm32 v2.39e (lastest beta firmware) http://www.olliw.eu/storm32bgc-wiki/Downloads it will be a zip file, in which you will find o323BGCTool_v239e.exe, open it and select the com port it correspond to your bgc, now go to the flash tab and select as the picture I uploaded... (storm32 v1.3, v2.39e nt, system bootloader at uart1, verify flashed) now search and download stm flash loader demostrator, and using a ftdi flasher connect the tx/rx to RC-0 and RC-1 (google a board pinout), then when connected, erase the board and remove write and read protection. after that you can flash the board with the bgc tool I explained before. good luck! need help? (antonio.ruiz@live.cl) after that you can flash your pixhawk with betacopter to have extended functions. (https://github.com/olliw42/storm32bgc) download the entire folder or your pix firm will be corrupted.
great control board. the new nt imu module will allow you to run long wires with out those ic2 related problems. i am running 2 Quanum 4008 gimbal motors on a med size 2 axis gimlal. i flashed o323BgcFirmwareFiles\o323bgc_v203_nt_storm32bgc_v130_f103rc.hex and works spot on. it would be nice to see the NT IMUs sold separately.
Отличный контроллер. NT версия. В стоке прошита старая прошивка 2.11e. Без проблем обновился до актуальной версии.
this is the board with the NT module, so the accelerometer works great. the other version on the market with I2C module is not so good, raises lots of I2C errors.
Доставка быстрая. Упаковка достойная. Полностью соответствует описанию. Датчик NT. Помех нет. Всё настроил.
Love it . it works grate. so much better then the normal storm32 just wish thay hade motors with NT sensor suport here to . and that thay hade the NT sensors by them self. no more error feed back tru sliprings :) so for any one with a 3axis gimbal its fantastic.
Nice quality, works like expected. Super smooth video platform. Highly recommended!
Всё работает, хороший товар.
Good quality
After flashing newest firmware, everything worked nicely. I've ordered a cheap 3axis gimbal on aliexpress and put this controller to test. Unfortunately the cables for IMU beneath the camera are too short, so do take additional wires. There is not enough header pins with this package, and the header pins that do come with the package don't support the holes in the plastic casing, it needs more 90 degrees header pins and you're only given 6pins (you need 9 for motors). I'd argue that the power cable is not soldered enough and could use resoldering and more support which I fear might brake or overheat during flight if used with an 3s battery. The controller works nicely, I have 0 i2c errors, just need to calibrate and play with the storm32NT GUI a bit more. Don't forget that you have to calibrate with your camera onboard the gimbal as I was baffled why my roll motor was having a stroke.
