Re: Gimbal help!

The servo feedback is all internal to the device. It's reasonable to treat it as something that just goes where you tell it to. If you want to know the servo position, you can assume it's what you last commanded it to be.

When you open the Robot Main vi and click the "Run" arrow at the top of the window, you can open other block diagrams and place probes on the wires to see what value they have while the program runs. Do that to trace where your servo angle command is getting lost.
