Shooting
The gimbal with 3-axis motors on panning, tilt and roll to keep the camera balanced along with the movement for different direction, so the best filming way is let each motor works individually along with your movement, for example.
1. If you would like to film from left to right, you'd better to hold the gimbal handle vertically, so that the panning motor works individually to rotate without interruption from other motors.or you can hold the gimbal exact horizontally (that way the panning changes to roll motor to work, the roll changes to pan motor to work).
2. If you would like to film from bottom to top, you'd better to hold the gimbal straight tilt up and down, without interruption from other motors.
Reset gimbal
Please open the APP, click "Settings -- Parameter Presets -- Normal -- Confirm --- Save" then restart the gimbal.(If your phone is Andriod, please open the APP, click "Settings -RESTORE-Save".)
Battery capacity
This supports 3600mAh of charging. We recommend that the battery time doesn't exceed the time of 3.5 hours. Please make sure you connect the USB charging cable to a 5V 110/220V Head Charger, plug this into a regular wall socket, we don't recomend to use this with a Fast Charger and you can charge your smartphone with the gimbal as a powerbank! You have 4 lights on the side of the gimbal that shows the life of this.
Motors get hot
It's normal of the gimbal, the motors work to balance the camera based on its weight. It is recommended to power off the gimbal if it already works for hours.
Shuts down
The reasons that gimbal shuts down automatically:
1. Turn on the gimbal without a camera mounted on. Please make sure your camera is mounted correctly before powering on the gimbal.
2. Hold the motors while the gimbal is working. Please hold the handle while the gimbal is working, rather than holding the motors.
Charging while working
It is not recomended to do this because this can swallow up the battery and hurt it's life time.
