Motor, gimbal having the motor, and image capturing device having the gimbal
The present invention discloses a motor comprising a stator, a rotator rotatably connected with the stator and an electrical connector that provides an electric signal to the motor. The motor further comprises a magnet fixed on the rotator and a Hall angular displacement sensor fixed on the electrical connector and arranged opposite to the magnet. The magnet and the Hall angular displacement sensor are spaced from each other by the electrical connector. The present invention further discloses a gimbal using the motor and an image capturing device using the gimbal.
