WARNINGS AND IMPORTANT NOTES
Warning: Do not move, sway or shake the model during the
initialization process. Moving, shaking or swaying the model
during the initialization process may lead to initialization failure,
which will require you to cycle the power o and then back on to
repeat the process. Adjusting or modifying the GB200™ in anyway
is not recommended. Prior to using the GB200™, read and understand the quick start guide and instruction manual completely.
Always power on your transmitter rst and then power on your
model and gimbal.
YUNEEC™ GB200™ gimbal is optimized for both the CGO1™
andGoPro3/3+® cameras. Please mount your camera to the
GB200™ without adjusting or modifying the GB200™. Do not
modify or add any other component / device (such as lters,
lens, plastic case, hood, etc.) to the camera. Also, it’s important
to make sure to use the original battery for your chosen camera, or
the change in weight and center of gravity of the camera may decrease performance of GB200™ or even cause internal malfunction.
Make sure your model’s autopilot system operates in the safest
manner when the main power battery is connected. We strongly
recommend that you remove all blades/propellers, use a suitable
ight battery, and keep a safe distance from children and other
people during gimbal setup. Please follow these important steps
to mount and connect the GB200™ gimbal on your model, and
respect the AMA’s National Model Aircraft Safety Code.

for Angle or Velocity
Control
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ANGLE OR VELOCITY MODE:
Angle Mode allows the ‘pitch’ angle of the camera gimbal to be
changed relative to the PWM control stick/knob/slider input.
Velocity Mode controls the speed/rate of the ‘pitch’ angle of the
camera according to PWM control stick/knob/slider input. For
example, the more control input, the faster the rate of change
will be.

HOW TO SWITCH CAMERA MOUNTS: CGO1™ to GoPro3/3+® (A)
Step 1: Rotate the CGO1™ camera mount - as shown in illustration
A - until the at spot inside the setscrew hole is facing up, and
loosen the setscrew using the allen wrench.
Step 2: Carefully remove the CGO1™ camera mount by sliding it
outward away from the gimbal motor and remove the gyro board
from the gyro board mount.
Step 3: Insert gyro board into the gyro board mount on the GoPro®
camera mount, and wrap the gyro board wire harness clockwise
one whole turn around the end of the camera mount toward the
gimbal motor.

Step 4: Spin the gimbal motor shaft until the ‘at spot’ is facing
the setscrew hole. Insert and tighten the setscrew to secure the
GoPro® mount to the GB200™.
HOW TO SWITCH CAMERA MOUNTS: GoPro3/3+® to CGO1™ (B)
Step 1: Rotate the GoPro® camera mount - as shown in illustration
B - until the at spot inside the setscrew hole is facing up, and
loosen the setscrew using the hex wrench.
Step 2: Carefully remove the GoPro® camera mount by sliding it
outward away from the gimbal motor and remove the gyro board
from the gyro board mount.
Step 3: Insert gyro board into the gyro board mount on the CGO1™
camera mount, and wrap the gyro board wire harness clockwise
one whole turn around the end of the camera mount toward the
gimbal motor.
Step 4: Spin the gimbal motor shaft until the ‘at spot’ is facing
the setscrew hole. Insert and tighten the setscrew to secure the
CGO1™ mount to the GB200™.

MOUNTING CGO1™ ON GB200 (C)
1. Remove the 5.8GHz Wi-Fi antenna from the CGO1™.
2. Install the CGO1™ into the CGO1™ camera mount.
3. Connect the 5.8GHz Wi-Fi antenna by pressing it onto the
5.8GHz antenna socket on the CGO1™ and turn it 90° to secure the
antenna to the CGO1™ and camera mount.
4. Install the 3mm mounting screw to secure the CGO1™ to the
mount.
MOUNTING GOPRO® ON GB200™ (D)
1. Install GoPro3/3+® in the GoPro3/3+® mount
2. use the GoPro3/3+® mounting sleeve to secure the camera to the
mount. (see illustration)
MOUNTING GB200™ ON BLADE® 350QX (E,F,G and H)
1. Install the GB200™ gimbal mounting plate on the 350QX using
the (4) included screws.
2. Slide the GB200™ into place with the arm side toward the back
of the model.
3. Connect the Blade® 350 QX2 control cable to the camera pitch
control port on the GB200™ and the corresponding port on the
Blade® 350QX V2.
4. Place the Blade® 350 QX2 on a at and stable surface. Switch
on the Blade® 350 QX2. Do not move, sway or shake the model
during the automatic calibration process. After the automatic
calibration is complete, your GB200™ is ready to use.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
WHAT WHY SOLUTION
The gimbal keeps
vibrating after
initializing.
The gimbal does
not function or
respond.
Camera may not be
mounted securely to
the camera mount.
Gimbal may have
been moved during
initialization.
Check and make sure
camera is mounted
completely and securely in the camera
mount. Camera needs
to be pressed into the
Camera mount
completely; otherwise,
the center of gravity will
be incorrect.
Cycle the gimbal
power on/o by
switching model
on/o.
Page 15
Gimbal will not
power on.
Gimbal does not
respond to control
inputs and LEDs
are glowing solid
RED and BLUE.
Red LED on gimbal
ashes slowly and
gimbal is
inoperable.
Gimbal control
harness may not be
connected into the
correct port.
Gimbal may not have
positive connection
via control harness or
satellite receiver.
The gyro board
harness may have
disconnected from
the GB200™ control
board.
If using GB200™ with
Blade® 350 QX2, be sure
to connect the control
harness to the camera
pitch control port . If
using with any other
model, be sure to
connect PWM input
to port the universal
PWM input port and
mode control port
Check gimbal control
harness/satellite r
eceiver for a solid
connection. Try
disconnecting and
reconnecting the
control harness/satellite
receiver and cycling the
power on/o.
Check the connection
between the gyro
board and the GB200™
control board.
