Easily Balance the DJI RS2 Gimbal

BALANCING YOUR CAMERA ON THE DJI RS2 GIMBAL. First, make sure that your camera and all of the accessories that your are planning to use are attached to the gimbal.  Adding or subtracting an item later will throw off your balance and you will need to rebalance the gimbal. Next, make sure the 3 motors are all locked with all of the arms expanded (remember, the gimbal comes folded in the case).  When I talk about motor locks, I am talking about the little locks, not the levers. As a reminder, from top to bottom, we have: the TILT MOTOR, the ROLL MOTOR and the PAN MOTOR. Now, let's unlock the tilt motor to do a horizontal tilt balance.  The goal is to have your camera sit level in place.  If it swings backward or forward, you need to make some adjustments. You simply unlock the lock lever and turn the knob forward or backward until you get a nice balance.  When you achieve balance, return the lever to the locked position.  Now we need to adjust the tilt arm.  I call this the vertical tilt balance.  I'll unlock it.  Then, we will need to slide the arm up or down until the camera stays in place pointed up at the ceiling. It should not swing forward or backward. Then we will lock the lever.  Now I'll lock the tilt motor and we will unlock the roll motor.  If it falls to the right or left, you need to unlock the lever and slide the arm to the right or to the left until you achieve balance.  Don't worry, you will get the hang of moving the arm the tiniest bit.  You may find it a little tricky when you first buy the gimbal.  Now you can lock the lever and the roll motor. Next we will balance the PAN MOTOR.  We need to unlock it.  To test the balance, you tilt the gimbal forward to the 11 o'clock position.  If the back swings, you will need to unlock the lever and push the arm forward or backward until the swinging stops.  Then lock the lever. As a final check, I'll unlock the three motors and quickly check these 4 things: the Horizontal Tilt Balance, the Vertical Tilt Balance, the ROLL balance and the Pan Balance. Make adjustments if needed. Thanks for watching.  Please like and subscribe. www.LoveWhatYouDoReviews.com
