Introduction Brushless Gimbal is the next generation technology for high quality aerial photography. Senrigan GP-55 Brushl ess Gimbal is driven directly with two Brushless Motors for 3-axis movement roll, tilt and yaw without gears or belts. The main advantages of this design compared to traditional actuators (servos) are the Brushless Gimbals have no backlash in the gear/belt, and it provides the instantaneous response to the disturbance.
