Design & Build Quality
Unlike most similar products currently available, the device comes with a telescopic extension rod that provides much more freedom while shooting top-down and pan-up footages. The rod extends the gimbal by up to 215 mm and the pivot angle can be adjusted up to 90 degrees. The gimbal has a sturdy polycarbonate construction with a foldable design. Once folded, it can be locked in place and kept in the supplied pouch. The control panel includes a Shutter/Record button, a Switch button, a circular joystick, a multifunction (M) button and a trigger, which are all easily accessible while operating the stabiliser. In addition to these buttons, the device includes a status LED and three battery indicators. A counterweight can be added via the M3 x 0.5 screw hole in case you use a microphone or another accessory on the phone. A standard ¼-inch tripod receptacle at the base of the handle allows you to attach the supplied compact tripod. The gimbal is available in Sunset White and Athens Grey colours.
