The SiYi gimbal when facing upside-down (Put on the table or maybe rover in future) doesn't takes mounting direction into account.
This PULL fixes that by taking advantage of mounting direction information that zr10 and A8 provides.

I tested this and it actually made no difference for my ZR10. I believe I upgraded to the latest firmware on both the "gimbal" and "zoom". In both cases both master and this PR were able to record video. .. both also nodded though when mounted upside-down.

This leads me to believe that the extra mounting position is actually hardware version specific meaning that even if I upload new firmware to the older gimbal it cannot detect its mounting direction.

@khanasif786 could you confirm what firmware you have on your gimbal/zoom?
