A two-axis gimbal system can be used for stabilizing platform equipped with observation system like cameras or different measurement units. The most important advantageous of using a gimbal stabilization is a possibility to provide not disturbed information or data from a measurement unit. This disturbance can proceed from external working conditions. The described stabilization algorithm of a gimbal system bases on a regulator with a feedback loop. Steering parameters are calculated from quaternion transformation angular velocities received from gyroscopes. This data are fed into the input of Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller. Their input signal is compared with earned value in the feedback loop. The paper presents the way of increasing the position’s accuracy by getting it in the feedback loop. The data fusion from a positioning sensor and a gyroscope results in much better accuracy of stabilization.
