If your Flycam HD Handheld video Stabilizer is correctly balanced on its horizontal axis, then it will be both level & upright, with the Central Post in a perfect vertical position.
- Page 7 Then, look at the Flycam HD Handheld video stabilizer from the front. If the post is not ver- tical, adjust bottom plate until the center post is vertical. You can also adjust weight discs closer to & further away from the sled as per requirement till the post is not vertical.
- Page 8 Remove top plate of FLYCAM and line up your camera so that its center of gravity is as close to the center of the plate as possible (basically hold the camera in your hand until it feels balanced both left and right as well as forward and back).
- Page 9 Be sure to keep oil away from your camera, & clean up any over spill. Cleaning Do not use solvents or harsh cleaners of any kind on your Flycam HD Hand held video stabilizer. If the unit becomes dirty, use a damp soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent to gently clean external parts.
