Accessories may be mounted
to the 1/4”-20 threads on the
handle. This location will not
effect balance.

Or mount accessories on the
rods using aftermarket 15mm
LWS brackets, in conjunction
with balance weights.

“Low mode” is great for
lowering the lens or hovering
over an obstacle!

Remove some weights and
adjust your camera display or
monitor so it’s visible inverted.

Then slide the weight rods to
re-center the handle.

Learn to look away from the
camera, to spot your footing.

If walking backwards more than
a few steps, ask someone to
guide you around obstacles.

Enjoy flying your Steadimate-S!
