A gimbal on-board a vehicle includes a receiver and a gimbal control system. The receiver is configured to receive a gimbal mode signal indicative of user selection of a gimbal mode from a plurality of gimbal modes. Each gimbal mode of the plurality of gimbal modes causes one or more axes of the gimbal to be stabilized with respect to an environment of the vehicle. The gimbal control system is configured to receive gimbal control data indicative of an attitude of the gimbal, receive position data of the vehicle indicative of a location or an attitude of the vehicle, and generate simulated gimbal response data indicative of a simulated attitude of the gimbal based on (1) the gimbal mode signal, (2) the gimbal control data, and (3) the position data of the vehicle.
