The present disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices related to the control and operation of a carrier for supporting a payload. In one aspect, a carrier may include: a stator configured to be coupled to a base support, wherein the stator include a spherical surface; and a frame operably coupled to the stator via a plurality of piezoelectric actuators, wherein the frame is configured to rotate relative to the stator about one or more rotational axes, and wherein the frame is configured to support a plurality of payloads in a manner that substantially balances a weight of the plurality of payloads relative to the stator.

Method and system for stabilizing a payload

A system for navigation includes a movable object. The movable object is configured to navigate to a first position and, while at the first position, determine a second position based on a selected point on an image.

System and method for positioning a movable object

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) apparatus includes an airframe, a propulsion system carried by the airframe and including at least one propulsion device, a movable component carried by the airframe, and a control system. The control system is programmed with instructions that, when executed, cause the control system to receive a first input corresponding to a characteristic of the movable component, receive a second input corresponding to a command to move the movable component, and direct a change in a setting of the at least one propulsion device in response to the first input and the second input.
