I know that this is an old video, but I just watched it for the first time. I've got a brain injury that has caused me to have issues learning how to do things without someone taking the time to show me...and your two videos on the operation of the Zhihun Smooth-Q gimbal have certainly given me the ability to use my gimbal without someone helping. Thank you for providing people like me, with a video that's very informative and very easy to understand. I'm very grateful for you creating content like this, thank you sir! God bless you and yours! Donnie

Thanks for putting the time and effort into producing this 2 part tutorial. Together they are some of the best “how to” videos that I’ve watched on KZfaq. Easy to follow and understand and just the right amount of information to comprehend. I also appreciated the fact that you said that you didn’t understand the calibration portion. I’ve watched to many videos that gave misleading info and were more harmful than helpful. Thanks again for the great tutorials.

Bruh MAJOR props. Thank you for your tutorial. I know it was cold outside. This tutorial is the best tutorial I've seen for ANYTHING. You didn't go too fast or too slowly. You were articulate. You made an old head wanna cry. Can you do all of the tutorials on KZfaq? Thanks again and God Bless.

Hey, i bought it one and a half year ago. After seeing your tutorials i finally got the idea of how it works. thanks-:))))

Excellent demo sir! My wife bought this model for me for Christmas but I had wanted the DJI Osmo mobile. I've watched a lot of reviews on these two stabaliziers and it's been torture trying to decide. I struggled whether to send it back but I couldn't resist test driving the Smooth Q. So far, I'm finding features that are either "as good" or better than the DJI Osmo. Thanks for braving the cold to show us the app features. I'm trying to be patient as I learn this. I'm using iPhone 7 and works very well so far.

A clear and well thought out tutorial. Mine arrived today and this has helped loads. Thank you.

Got one of these for Christmas and your videos were a big help in getting me up to speed!!!

BigBallVlogs ....I got this Smooth Q about a year and a half now and just watching your video ...Thanks a million big man for the tutorial

A couple of really good videos. Thanks for posting them, I learned a lot.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I learned more from your tutorials than I learned from reading the English language manual THREE TIMES, from visiting the d.r.e.a.d.f.u.l. Zhy-Yun web site -- where clicking on the videos launched some kind of Chinese equivalent of Sim-City, and trying to make sense of the instructions in Chinese was utterly futile ... even with Google Translate's help. (And while I'm not fluent by any means, 我说，读，写普通话。)

Best instructional video on the Smooth Q and App I have seen to-date. Great stuff.

I really appreciate your two videos on how to use the Smooth Q. Thank you.

Thank you for the tutorials!! I bought this just recently and I finally figured out how to set this up and actually use it and the app.

Your review of this product was great, thanks for doing it! Helped a lot.

Thanks for taking the time to make this follow up video - really helpful.

Bought one today because your videos. Thanks man, your explanation was better than the instructions.

I've had my Smooth Q for several years and still haven't reached the level of use I bought it for. It's been sitting in my gearbox now for a few years out of frustration. I can get some great basic video from it with my iPhone, but just haven't reached the comfort level I am used to with my other gear. That being said, this vid has certainly helped on seeing where my lack of patience have deterred me. Will give it a thorough workout on my next trip to the Big Island - THX!

Thank you for a great tutorial - I have now been able to set mine up. You're a star!

BigBall! Awesome tutorial! I am a retired University Professor and coordinator of online instruction and I wanted to tell you awesome job my man. Great video and instructional piece. I just subscribed, you are the man!

Thank you for the 2 videos! :)

Hey, thanks a lot for the great videos about the zhiyun smooth q. I just bought one thanks to your take. i never even knew it could do those cool timelapses, especially the moving ones. I think i will mostly be using the double tap mode, i think you called it free follow or something like that. Anyway, keep up the good work my man!

appreciate the video and you tuffing out the weather for us

Thanks for all the helpful tips and product review. Great work!

Great video! I just picked this up and I’m way more confident in using it now! Can’t wait to go out and shoot!

Tip: It also work great in 4K with the GoPro Hero 4, 5 or 6. If you’re shooting with the Smooth Q you can crop it down alot without losing too much quality. This means that the warp stabilizer in Premiere pro works great to rough out any edges that might not have been 100% perfect with the Smooth Q.

Dude!! so good man!! you totally cleared up alot of issues for me. Thank you!!!!!

Thanks for this video,i was looking at buy the Q,it's now a done deal for me.

Dude, you not only make great videos but your choice of music is off the charts. Damn that is the coolest funky shit I have ever heard. Who is it?

Thanks for the product review and EASY TO UNDERSTAND Tutorial!

Muchas gracias, amigo! I just got one of these, so your info is invaluable. Yeah, it's still relevant...

Super helpful and I really enjoy your videos!

Thank you so much for this video too. Made this so much easier to work this and easy to set up.

You are such a good instructor thanks...

I also lowered the "control rates" to about 10 on all axis so that panning using the thumb control is nice and slow and smooth. Not tested this yet with my Sony RX100 but I want to try it.

Thank you! This really helped me.

Thanks for making this video. I have run into one issue. I use the galaxy s8, sometimes with a case, sometimes with out. Either way, whenever I have it perfectly balanced, the camera picks up the rear arm of the gimbal on some movements. The only way I can keep the arm out of the camera view is to have it off balance so it's further away.

Awesome tutorial. I thought i was going to have to buy a counterweight for it until you demoed the balancing. I'm sure that, is prolly basic, but i'm a newbie on gimbals. So thanks!

Thank you! Very useful instructions! Keep doing good reviews!

Good follow-up video. Thanks again for the upload.

Mine came with the tripod and machined faceplate with clamp for a GoPro system. ($103)

Thank you part 1 was great

Thanks again. The first video was helpful thins one made using the app much easier to use. Thanks again.

Merci pour le vidéo. Facile a comprendre et très utile.

Thank you!!!! Bought one...going shooting tomorrow.

Man you are the best on these tutorials...I will suscribe because you know what are you doing here....hehehehe...!!!

Thanks for the video. Does active track work well with Andriod. I'm trying to get this for my wife.

Thank you for this step by step! - I'm going to go get one now. :)

Clear and really helpful, thanks

Your videos are very helpful bro

this was super helpful. thanks brother

Thanks for the helpful review. Love that your filming while its snowing! Youre dedicated! 😁 btw I Just bought a smooth q yesterday and testing it now. Did calibration make much of a difference for you when you got it to worj? I too didnt like the app so im just going to use my galaxy s7 edge recording software. Also I cant see a way to set smooth q app to record to my sdcard? Also the joystick is way to fast and sensitive so when using the app to change those settings and you set the gimbal movement to reverse and slow down the joystick will that work if you dont use the smooth q app to record? I would like to be able to set it but want to use the samsung software to record. How do you change the mount for a compact camera? Btw smooth q is down to $99 on amazon today 2/6/2018 and dj osmo mobile 2 just released in stock yesterday for $129 on the dji website. Cheers! 😎

Thanks, really useful informative video

Got mine 2day .... excellent vid 👌

Nice, lots of good info man! 👍😃👍 Thanks! 👍😃👍

You stay with a new toy lol nice review I just got a spark lol

Absolutely brillant video

Thanks for the Great Vid

Thanks for the videos. Good job. Any idea why this app needs access to the device ID and contacts to work? Seems sketchy to me.

Top vid fella cheers

Thank you very much!! Great video!!

Excelent video buddy... thank you so much subscribed!

Nice tutorial, now get inside and warm up brotha! ⛄

When review is life...

Great review. Thanks!

I’m going crazy. I can’t find the tracking icon on the app for iPhone. My toolbar doesn’t look like the one on the instruction manual. I bought the gimbal for this function. Please help

You seen the video with my homemade camera holder for the Yi action camera. Well I purchased a aftermarket medal holder off eBay, this should allow me to have a clean frame without obstruction from gimble arm.

really nice tutorial dude!! thank you so much!! :)

Playing with the Smooth Q for the first, I can't find any visual indicator which mode the gimbal is currently in (follow or lock etc).

I make music for film more than film for music, and that kick in the open is bananas, can you tell me the track name? great vid btw...

In my Moto G4 Plus the panorama doesn't working and just a feels weeks the Zhiyun fixed the motion time lapse

Thank you so much for your videos. I bought this product thinking it was going to be super easy for a non-gadget person... and low and behold, its much more complicated, for me! So i have a very random and quick question for you, i keep reading in the manual about making sure that the proper battery charging is used. The product didn't come with a cube only the USB cable. Would you know, is it ok for me to connect that to any cube that I may have at home or should I be using a special one? I wish you lived closer to have a private one-on-one lesson :)

So for the Pan Tilt zoom, What settings have you found work best? Thank you in advance!

Thanks for the video. Get out of that snow!

But how do I get the videos from the app to my camera roll on my phone or to my computer for editing? Nothing in the user guide. Thanks!

Looking to buy a Samsung S9plus for use with my Smooth Q. My new phone will have similar dimensions to the S8plus, is it the S8plus that you were using in these videos or S8? Just concerned the S9plus at 158.1mm might be too long for this gimbal. At 189g the weight should be fine though.

Thank you great tutorial!!!

Thank you bro🤙

I don't understand why when I record in horizontal mode the playback is sometimes in vertical so it is sideways. Could use some help here...

Great Videos!! I was wondering if you could help me troubleshoot my issue. My device records audio but not the video. Any suggestions? Thanks again!

Good video brother.

Hi. How do you program movements (Pans/Tilts etc) in a none timelapse mode please?

i am planning on buying a gimbal... Dji Osmo Mobile or Smooth Q ? which would you recommend ? Money is not a problem... but if Smooth Q has all the features in Osmo then why waste money ? so is it a DJI killer or its not up to the mark with DJI ?

Would this be useful if I want to use my phone as a dashcam? Or is it too bulky and may obscure vision?

hey all, is it me or does the Gimble not support a 6s plus at all if I have a screen protector on the screen ? Seems i have to have a completely naked phone in order to get a solid balance. Not sure if I like that. anyone have any experience with this issue.

Great Job

how are you able to move the camera gimbal left and right? I can use the joystick for up/down but it never will pan left or right with the joystick.

Hey man great video. I just bought the smooth Q gimble for my Samsung S7 Edge. However the shutter button and zoom slider does not work. i have seen people use the power/shutter button to take photo, and use the zoom slider for switching between front and back camera. Do you know what is the problem caused this?

hey, I'm looking into getting one. I have a question, once I start recording will I be able to pause the video then start recording again where I pause it? fyi I'll be using it with a iPhone 12 Pro thanks.

I just got one of these and neither my zoom nor my shutter buttons work...any idea if there is something I need to do to make these work??

Do you know how to transfer videos youv'e shot using the Smooth Q over to KZfaq?

What's the difference between the Zhiyun play..and the Zhiyun assistant? If you know? For me the assistant keeps dropping my Bluetooth.

HI, another great video BBV. I have a question. I ve got Samsung A5 2017 and this gimbal with 1.6 firmware. The problem is that even if I change something in PTZ, there is no effect. I am saving it as my own profile (pattern)but doesnt work. What am I doing wrong :( ? Guys do you have something in common ? See ya

When I try to use tracking mode it tells me to set in landscape mode when it is already any ideas thanks good video

What I haven't seen is how to charge it, and how to use the usb port and charging your phone while recording. I just bought a used one and don't have a manual. Can you please help me out here, I'm a newbie Thanks so much

mate, nice one, you really cleared a bunch of stuff up. Cheers! Apparently the app works 10 times better on the iphone, whcih is annoying.

How do I connect my Bluetooth to this device is there a special mode or pairing mode

Very informative. Just a suggestion... for DU Recorder... go into its settings and you can remove the watermark.

tnx

How do you livestream from the app. Am in the USA

Fry's Electronic sales this for $99. I just bout one. Very happy with it.
