Precautions

1.  Please store the gimbal in a dry, well-ventilated environment at room temperature. Prevent the 

lens from fogging due to high ambient humidity. If the lens fogs, power on the gimbal for a 
period of time to dissipate water vapor. Store the unit at less than 40% relative humidity, and at 
20±5° C. 

2.  Do not place the gimbal under direct sunlight, in poorly-ventilated places, or near sources of 

heat such as radiators or other heaters. 

3.  Do not frequently switch the gimbal camera on and off. After it is powered off, please restart the 

gimbal camera after at least 30 seconds. Otherwise, this may affect the camera core’s service 

life. 

4.  Make sure that the gimbal interface and surface are dry before installation. 

5.  The gimbal’s protective cover and lens’ protective cover are only used for protecting the gimbal 

interface and camera lens. Before installation, remove both covers. When the gimbal is not used, 

mount both covers to ensure that the gimbal’s interface and camera lens are protected. 

6.  Before use, please make sure that the gimbal has been securely mounted onto the aircraft, and 

the SD card port’s protective cover has been covered. 

7.  Before opening the SD card port’s protective cover, wipe the device’s surface and prevent dirt or 

foreign matter from obstructing the SD card slot. 

8.  Before use, do not hot plug the SD card while taking photos or recording videos. 

9.  Do not directly touch by hand or scratch the cladding material on the camera lens’ surface with 

hard objects, as this can cause blurriness and affect image quality. 

10.  When cleaning the camera lens, be sure to use a soft and dry cleaning cloth to wipe the lens 

surface. Do not use alkaline detergent for cleaning. 

11.  Avoid hot plugging the gimbal when charged. Please use the aircraft power button to power off 

the gimbal. Do not directly remove the gimbal from the aircraft. 

12.  During gimbal self-checking, do not move the aircraft. 
13. The gimbal is a precision device. Please put it in a special package while transporting.
