If properly placed, the camera should remain in any angle you
position it. If you tilt the camera down and let it go it should
remain in that attitude. If it rotates up or down when let go you
will need to either adjust the camera fore/aft on the slotted
mounting plate or slide the mounting tube/camera vertically on
the vertical plate. To adjust vertically loosen the thumbnut on
the camera mounting tube and slide up or down on the slotted
plate. Figure 13.
The same applies to the roll axis. If properly balanced the
camera should remain at any angle after being placed there
and letting go. If it drops to one side or another the camera
needs to be moved left or right. There are two methods of
moving the camera left/right:
1) moving the ‘L’ arm left/right relative to the roll motor.
2) moving the camera mounting plate left/right on the camera mounting tube. This is done by loosening the
camera mounting plate clamps and sliding the mounting plate along the mounting tube. Do not over-
tighten the clamps. The clamps do not require much torque on the clamp screws. Figure 14.
It’s important to keep the camera optical center as close to the roll axis as possible. Do this by keeping the
camera as close to the tilt motor as possible. Figure 15.
