Your camera setup must be properly balanced for all 3 axis to achieve the best performance from
the gimbal. Accurate balance is especially critical for shots where extreme angles or movements
are performed, such as car shots, running, biking, aerials, etc. Without properly following the
balance instructions, your gimbal may not perform at all, or with poor accuracy, and with decreased
battery performance. When changing cameras or lenses, make sure all three axis remain properly
balanced. Improper balance can ruin the motors and void warranty, so please follow all instructions
in order.
