Mounting & Balancing

*To ensure stable footage and maximize the gimbal's performance, balancing is required before using the iSteady M7.

*Failure to adjust the balance may result in reduced stability, shorter battery life, and, in cases of severe imbalance, overheating of the motors, leading to a sleep protection mode.

*Compatible with smartphones: ≤ 7 inches (weight ≤ 500g, width: 58mm - 90mm, thickness ≤ 12.5mm).
