Gimbal Control Unit (GCU)
1. Make sure all ports are accessible when installing your MC so as to facilitate wiring and software configuration.
2. In 3-pin ports, the pins near the nicks are the signal pins.
3. Use the 6-pin cable for the G6 port, and the 10-pin to 9-pin cable for the G9 port.
4. DO NOT cover the heat sinks, and keep them unobstructed at all times.
5. The GCU module is NOT water or oil proof.
RC Receiver
1. The diagram on the previous page shows example connections. The aircraft signal will transmit through
the DJI Lightbridge ground system. After connecting to Lightbridge, it is not necessary to connect with an
RC receiver.
2. Prepare 2 TXs, one for gimbal control, and the other for aircraft control. Refer to the 2-Pilot Solution for more
details. If only one receiver is used for both aircraft and gimbal control, refer to the 1-Pilot Solution for more
