Haven’t had any luck finding info on how to use the “Payload Control” widget in mission planner. Is there a Wiki somewhere that explains how this is used? Just wanting to manually control a SimpleBGC32 gimbal for tilt.

I guess it sends mavlink command to the gimbal.

Thanks Alvin - Guess I’ll work it out one day. In the meantime I came across this Mavlink camera controller which seems to work not only with Herelink but other systems as well. Nice py script to run within Mission Planner is great!! [http://airpixel.cz/herelink-camera-control-geotagging/](http://airpixel.cz/herelink-camera-control-geotagging/)
