A gimbal is a two or more axis mount.
The configuration may be altitude over azimuth (Alt-Az),
altitude over altitude (Alt-Alt), equatorial, or a combination
of the above.
The Optical
Configurations Summary table identifies the typical uses
for each configuration.
Examining the three configurations leads to the conclusion
that they are really the same.
Only the orientation of the gimbal referred to the fixed
mounting surface (typically the earth's surface) is different.
DFM Engineering has built all of the axes configurations
of gimbals.
