SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera - Everything you need
4K Ultra HD Video Recording
This feature allows you to capture exceptionally detailed videos and photos in ultra-high 4K resolution.
320-Degree
A wide 320-degree horizontal rotation range enables flexible framing and panoramic tracking without needing to turn the entire aircraft.
6x Digital Zoom
The 6x digital zoom allows for quick and clear magnification of distant objects during observation.
Upside Down Mode
This function automatically flips the image orientation and adjusts gimbal movements when the device is mounted in an inverted position.
8 MP Effective Pixels
The high-quality 8-megapixel Sony image sensor ensures excellent image clarity and great low-light performance.
Nose Mode
This specialized mode optimizes camera stabilization and orientation when it is mounted on the nose of the aircraft.
Ethernet, HDMI, CVBS Video Output
Multiple video output ports allow the device to easily connect to advanced digital transmission systems, monitors, or legacy analog receivers.
Compatible with ArduPilot & PX4
Full compatibility with the Mavlink protocol, ArduPilot, and PX4 ensures seamless integration with the most popular professional autopilots.
High Accuracy & High Collaboration Control Algorithm
The advanced control algorithm guarantees highly precise image stabilization and seamless real-time coordination with the drone's movements.
AI Smart Identify and Tracking Capabilities of the SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera
With its integrated neural network processing unit, the SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera supports advanced recognition protocols to autonomously track moving subjects such as vehicles, people, and boats. Please note: This specific kit does not include the AI tracking activation/module in the base package, and it must be purchased separately to unlock these smart tracking features on your SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera.
Abundant Gimbal Control Interface on the SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera
Connecting your camera to standard unmanned platforms is seamless thanks to the Abundant Gimbal Control Interface built directly into the SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera. This broad compatibility ensures that it receives control signals via S.Bus, UART, and Ethernet UDP/TCP, making it highly flexible for both proprietary SIYI links and third-party setups.
High-Precision 3-Axis Gimbal Stabilizing Control Algorithms of the SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera
To ensure flawless video stability during intense flight movements, the SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera implements industry-grade 3-Axis Gimbal Stabilizing Control Algorithms combined with FOC motor control. These systems actively suppress sudden vibrations, guaranteeing that your SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera continuously delivers perfectly steady, cinema-quality video lines.
Different Needs? Different Modes of Use SIYI A8 mini Gimbal Camera
The A8 mini offers a variety of usage modes that give you the flexibility to adapt to different needs:
- FPV (First Person View) mode allows you to synchronize the gimbal with the drone, providing an incredibly stable FPV image. This is an ideal solution for racing drones and people who want to record videos of amazing landscapes in FPV.
- Follow mode allows you to track the drone’s rotation (rotation in the Roll axis), this mode is compatible with multi-rotor aircraft.
- Locked mode allows you to lock the rotation of the camera, regardless of the rotation of the drone, which allows you to maintain a specific camera direction, for example, in the north direction, then no matter the rotation (inversion) of the drone, the camera will be pointed in the north direction.
- Inverted mode allows you to activate the camera when it is mounted upside down, without requiring any software changes. This is useful when mounting the camera on UGVs, USVs or walking robots.
The A8 mini is not only a device for capturing great images, but also a versatile tool that adapts to your needs, regardless of the use.
