These are the gimbal controls I can see in QGroundControl when I use the SIYI A8 Mini with an flight computer running ArduPilot.
I can see that there are 2 options in Control Type - Click to Point and Click and Drag.
Can someone please let me know how to use them when I have selected one of the control types?
For ArduPilot I suggest to ask in discuss.ardupilot.org instead.

The doubt is related to using the gimbal with QGroundControl.
Mission Planner offers a straightforward interface for payload control where the Pan, Tilt and Roll of the gimbal can be controlled using sliders and it is easy to understand how to use it.
But I am using QGroundControl as the GCS software as it is adaptable to platforms of lower screen sizes. Siyi offers its own version of QGroundControl to use the gimbal but I cannot run 2 QGroundControls simultaneously on the same GCS device.
I have no other option but to use the gimbal controls that the standard QGroundControl offers and I want to know how to use them.
Have you updated the firmware for gimbal and camera of the SIYI camera?
And have you followed the ArduPilot instructions how to set up the SIYI gimbal?
Yes, I’ve followed the ArduPilot instructions to set up the gimbal and camera.
Yes I’ve upgraded the firmware.
My only doubt is how to use the click to point or click and drag control.
Where am I supposed to click? Where am I supposed to drag?
