PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
A technique used to control analog devices with a digital signal. For example, the B32
Gimbal Controller uses a PWM signal to control the speed and direction of the motors in
a gimbal.

RC (Radio Control)
A general term for controlling the direction of a gimbal remotely. Usually, when this
manual refers to RC receivers and transmitters, we are referencing the type of RC
