    Abstract: A low profile gimbal is disclosed, such as may be used in airborne RADAR applications. The low profile gimbal can include first and second concentric motors disposed in a housing with an antenna or other active element disposed below the housing. The first motor can change the position of the antenna in azimuth. A mechanical linkage between the second motor and the antenna can change the position of the antenna in elevation based on an offset of angular velocity between the first and second motors.
