Out of the box it did not take any adjustment to make butter smooth video, just mount my camera and it does all the magic. I did a side by side test and with the gimbal it eliminate all camera shakes except up and down shift which I will need to learn ninja walk to get rid off.
Connecting the gimbal to the phone is very straight forward, download the hohem app from apple app store and click the connect button. Once connected you can set different stength to the 3 motors, motionlapse is easy to use, just create different waypoints and set overall intervals. it will then control movment of the gimbal with the path you choose. Very interesting timelaps video can be made with it.
The overall built is solid, it is small enough to fit into my camera bag. attach the included small tripod to the bottom of the gimbal and you have a phone controlled pan/tilt tripod. It gives a new lease of lift to my older action camera which lack the video stabilization need.
nice grip with the handle and all the buttons and control is withing reach of the thumb and index finger.
