I want to stabilize MOBIUS camera for smooth aerial video, So I start to build gimbal for it.
At this time, 2D brushless gimbal is cheap but also have good performance.
and these are my choose for build my 2D brushless gimbal.
+ Turnigy 2D brushless gimbal frame kit for MOBIUS
+ AX-2206 gimbal motor (included with Turnigy gimbal frame kit)
+ Martinez V3 gimbal controller
Start date: Aug 6, 2015
I assembly TURNIGY gimbal kit that included with motor AX-2206 in kit.
and i use MARTINEZ V3 controller for control gimbal motor.

Aug 27, 2015 === FINAL SOLUTION ===
I use CH6 switch to control camera pitch angle
CH6 OFF, camera pitch -15 degree (for flying)
CH6 ON, camera pitch -60 degree (for look to ground)
To do …
+ Wiring CH6 signal from receiver connect to A1 pin of Martinez V3 board
+ Config gimbal to work with RC_PITCH control
+ Setting min-max angle of camera pitch to defined degree
Test MOBIUS aerial video at pitch -15 and -60 degree
