    IMPO RT A N T N O T ES The smartphone must be balanced to guarantee the correct functioning of the stabilizer. Turn on the stabilizer only when the smartphone is mounted, otherwise motors might be damaged. Vibrating is normal for the first few seconds after turning on the stabilizer. It will disappear when the motor's auto-adjustment is done.
  • Page 13 F A Q 1. The stabilizer can't stabilize or motors are powerless after booting. Ensure that the smartphone has been mounted and balanced correctly on the stabilizer. 2. Vibration happens when using the stabilizer in normal way. Default value of motor strength is a bit high so that the stabilizer can work properly in portrait mode.
