Balancing the Zhiyun Crane (with a GH5)

I've had the Zhiyun Crane V2 for about 3 hours so thought I'd pass on how best to balance the gimbal ( with a GH5 in this instance) before turning it on.

Excellent video on how to balance. Watched so many videos about how to properly balance the Crane and your's is by far the best!!!

B R I L L I A N T, thank you for producing this video and the helpful tips. I am a little behind the times and recently purchased the GH5 & this same Gimbal just waiting for the 12-35 f2.8 II lens to arrive and I’m off into the land of (outback Australian ) my back yard, looking forward to learning filmmaking. Cheers

You're gonna love it! it's a great gimbal for the money, but do take time to tweak the settings (especially smoothness) on the app, it definitely improves usability.
Great vid, keep it up!

Didn’t know that Marouane Fellaini is also doing Gimbal tutorials on YouTube! Great video - thanks! 👍🏻

I would like to see how you have it mounted on a tripod to do that Pan Axis balancing.

Hey Leighton, I think your camera is still unbalanced at the end of the video. It's supposed go stay in any position if it's perfectly balanced. @ 2:23, you tilt the roll axis and it doesn't stay in that position. It falls back to horizontal. Can you please make another video where you've perfectly balanced it?

How come when I turn and move in a different direction the gimbal goes the other way?
