Aerial Photography and Video > (AirFoil Mount) with JR8103 trigger and switch assignment

My current setup is:

PCM 9ch Rx
JR8103 8ch Tx
401/9253 on rudder.

I have the Airfoil camera mount ( Carbon 30 ).


I am wondering if anyone out there is using the 8103 for their aerial photograpy work?!


The reason I ask is because I am wondering if I can setup my Radio JR8103 is able to handle the follows tasks:


1. trigger the switch
2. remain using heading hold mode with 401
3. use a knob or switch to control tilt of the camera mount.

any ideas?

thanks!

it can be done!

It can be done!!!


I hooked up the camera mount tilt servo to my aux3, and a trigger servo to my aux2


So, the rudder D/R switch is used for the camera trigger.


The title servo is controled by which flight mode I am in --- I made all the flight modes the same, the only thing that changes is the tilt of the camera moude. Each flight mode is a mirror image of normal mode, just the tilt servo changes from level to 45 degree angle down.


The 401 heading hold is controlled by the gear switch as I have always set it up.



I guess I answered my own question.

Cheers,
