THANK YOU Dr Peter! I just bought this and was about to return it because the plate was not locking in place. You are a Hero sir!

[@JakeSloan]

glad I could help!

[@SASIMWD]

Luv it. It made me pro in balancing. I used to make a little balance just to make work done before. I hope nowm the Battery gonna last more.

[@JakeSloan]

yay im very glad to hear that!

[@robonekea2836]

Thanks Jake, set up my Weeble S correctly when I first bought it but over time it got all out of wack and I realized I was doing it wrong. Great video! Simple and effective.

[@JakeSloan]

Thank you so much and you’re welcome!!

[@cjoth]

seems to be different from Weebill S’s recommended way of doing it from the Zhiyun Tech YT channel and Zhiyun’s official manual, but i guess whatever floats your boat. i do find it easier the official way of doing it from Zhiyun

[@JakeSloan]

I think it’s whatever gets the gimbal balanced correctly

[@cjoth]

@@JakeSloan i agree :)

[@trosencrantz]

Hey Jake, is it important to turn off in body stabilization when using Sony cameras on gimbals? Thanks!

[@JakeSloan]

I leave mine on most of the time but if you notice weird movements in the footage turn off the IBIS will help. You'll notice it especially in panning movements.

[@will-9000]

Great tips for quick start, thanks!

[@JakeSloan]

you're welcome!

[@finnillson4808]

Can confirm Weebill S handles my GH5S with smallrig L-Bracket cage and the new 10-25mm f/1.7. I Can achieve perfect balance with this setup so motors are not working hard. Also the 50-200mm f/2.8-4 will also balance almost perfectly at mid way through zoom range. Tilt motor will need boost in motor strength though to handle the differences when zooming.

[@JakeSloan]

Thats fantastic thanks for sharing the info!!

[@lepancho8122]

do u think these same instructions apply for iphone xr with several attachments?

[@MotivationalMatrixx]

Thanks mate well done explaned one little tip maybe would be helpful. You should unlock all 3 locks before u turn the gimbal on otherwise u can see the axis error 👏🏻👍🏻

[@kostasrestas]

great! i just get weebill s...i came from ronin sc and i have a question... if i shoot at pov or go mode and i want instantly to lock on a subject for some seconds and then pov again, how i do that? i mean , at the ronin i was just pushing the trigger and locks, here trigger is to follow... how i do that??

[@JakeSloan]

You do have options to program the trigger on the weebill s a little bit but I'm not sure it would do exactly what you want it should default back to pan follow which means you would have to keep the camera pointed at the subject through some trial and error.

[@nunmpedro]

But if the auto calibration is adjusted to the well-balanced gimbal, if we change the weight arrangement we are likely to have weak motor strength for the new arrangement, and we should do a new auto calibration, right? Because i get some shaky footage after remove the ND filter without changing the settings of the gimbal.

[@JakeSloan]

Yeah if you make any big changes to the weight or notice some shakiness then doing another auto calibration should help get rid of it!

[@QualityClassics]

Great video Jake! I've got a question though. When I try the "auto tune" feature on my Weebill S it appears to go through the process just fine. However, once the check mark appears and it says "ok" it starts to vibrate and make a very loud grinding noise while starting to tilt to the right. Does yours do this? I have my camera absolutely PERFECT balance so I know that's not my issue. (it is an approved camera and lens as well) Thanks!

[@JakeSloan]

no mine makes no noise at all if you can send me a video clip on twitter? otherwise I would get in touch with Zhiyun support and see what they say as well!

[@QualityClassics]

@@JakeSloan Yeah, I think mine has an issue then. It's quite loud and the only way I can stop it is if I quickly go to motor settings and change it to one of the three levels. Thanks for getting back with me!

[@KyrieNene]

@@QualityClassics same. My weebill s is a trash

[@QualityClassics]

@2WheelsGood Yeah, I just did the most recent firmware update and now it's good. Hopefully that'll work for you too. Definitely was annoying.

Nice job dude!! Great gimbal!

[@JakeSloan]

Thanks Paul!

[@bixgomez2839]

I got the Weebill S after returning the Ronin SC... I might prefer how the Ronin feels in the hand, so the jury is still out as to which one I'll settle on. In your comparison between the two, the Weebill definitely seems more stable when walking... Have you found that to be the case?

[@JakeSloan]

I have found the Weebill S to be far better at stabilization by far.

[@bixgomez2839]

Jake Sloan that’s good to hear... it certainly seems that way from your footage. Do you think the payload capacity has something to do with that, with regard to the GH5?

[@lebavu8260]

So if I understood correctly, let’s say I like to swap prime lens a lot but don’t want to rebalance it with every swap, then I can go to menu and auto tune after each swap and that should be ok without needing to rebalance? Does it work if I just leave it on auto or do I have to hit auto to recalibrate with each lens swap? Thx!

[@JakeSloan]

If the lenses are close to the same weight I wouldn't worry about recalibrating every time unless you notice the footage is shaky. If the lenses are drastically different then I would either recalibrate or maybe just re balance the tilt motor.

[@lebavu8260]

Jake Sloan ty for the response!

[@LuisMarquez80]

I just got mine today! I put a manfrotto QR plate on it for easy mount and go.

[@JakeSloan]

nice!! does it work well? One thing I really like about the Weebill S is it can handle a camera with a QR plate on it unlike the Weebill Lab

Lol I gotta represent!!! Thanks man. It was a challenging day to shoot with the lighting. It was changing rapidly from minute to minute but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

[@RangerRickTV]

Any reason why my a7sii doesn't charge from the gimbal?

[@JakeSloan]

You need to make sure camera power is on and make sure its set for the correct camera as well as make sure USB power is on in the A7sII camera menu settings

Great video, Jake! Thank you for going through the adjustment process, there's a lot to it. Video looks great in 4k, too!!

Thanks Mark!! Appreciate that a lot. I wasn't super happy with the video just because the lighting was changing constantly and made it challenging to shoot! Hope to see you on the live stream tomorrow!

[@bixgomez2839]

At the 2:40 mark, it is impossible to see what you're adjusting. I figured it out, but it's really difficult to see what you're adjusting on the other side of the lens!

Next time I’ll make it more clear.

Hi Jack, the image transmission module can only transmit 1080p @30FPS, my question is does this mean my record settings on the camera has to correspond to 1080p or can I record at 4k?

No you absolutely can record 4K. On your phone you will only see it in 1080 but on your SD card it will be recorded in 4K

Hey I just got mine and it’s my first gimbal. It’s all set up but when I start filming, it’s every so slightly tilted to the left (or rolled to the left), it’s really steady and smooth with no shake, but the horizon isn’t perfectly level. Do you know how I can fix this? Thanks!

[@JakeSloan]

There is a way to adjust the roll axis in the menu on the gimbal and you can also do a calibration using the app to make sure it is properly calibrated. I would adjust the roll angle in the on gimbal menu first.

[@billem16]

​@@JakeSloan thank you so much my friend! that is what I needed. Now my LAST issue (before a wedding this Saturday that I want to use the gimbal at), is for some reason when I put the footage on my computer to review it, it has this weird wiggle/wobble like a stutter, not the silky smooth footage I bought the gimbal for... I'm sure i'm just a newb and it can be tweaked in the settings... but can you start me off on the right foot? I'm using a pretty small set up, a Canon 5d Mark IV with a VERY light/small lens.

I ran into a problem when trying to balance my camera with a Rode VideoMic attached to it. I realized I can’t point my camera straight up because the back of the mic ends up hitting the axis. Is there a workaround for this, or do I just have to get as close as I can?

[@JakeSloan]

There is actually: amzn.to/3c0Rrhx (affiliate link) that mounts on the bottom of the tilt arm and you can mount the mic there and still get full range of motion! Cheers

Hi how do I fix my weebill S it keeps on wobbling. Frameware 1.95 balanced perfectly and auto calibrated also. Please help me.

[@casroy777]

Hey bro,Do you really recommend this gimbal over ronin sc ?I watched your comparison video also but still could not decide. I had bad experience with weebil lab so I hated zhiyun. I do not want to be Guinean pig again... I really liked its specifications but does it have weak or bad points ?

[@JakeSloan]

Man both are pretty good. While I haven’t had the Weebill S for a long time yet (multiple months) I can say it’s handled everything I’ve used it for with ease. That Includes going inside a glacier ice cave (it got dripped on a fair bit) walking through snow and rain. Shooting several conferences some interviews and lots of videos for KZbin and it’s going strong. My biggest disappointment so far is the app is much more difficult than the DJI app to get around (it’s not super intuitive) and the motion timelapse doesn’t work well at all. Supposedly they issued new firmware today to fix that but I haven’t had the chance to test it yet. If I had to choose today I’d probably go with the Weebill S but I also didn’t experience the problems some people did with the lab. It had frustrations for sure but mine worked well until I passed it on to the next user.

[@paulfairchild8942]

Jake, if you power your Sony A7R IV or Sony A7 III using the Weebill S's battery (full charge to start), do you know how long ballpark you can use it (gimbal & camera) for? Wondering if it's 2-3 hours or 4-6 or more? Thanks!

[@JakeSloan]

well for me it has been 4-5 hours but usually I have been working outside in the cold as well which shortens battery life. I would say it would be a safe bet to be in the 4-6 hour range depending on conditions and usage.

Hi im using a 6d mark ii + 50mm stm lens. The problem is it rolls a little bit when im panning using the Pan Follow mode. Even its perfectly balanced. Why do you think that happens?

[@JakeSloan]

Be sure it’s updated to the latest firmware and you can also play with the deadband sensitivity on the roll axis as well as the speed setting to try and work that out.

[@unictravel]

You got any idea why my pan doesn't work when is operated by the arrows until the tilt works ^ v ?

Depending on which mode you are in it will work or not work. Pan Follow disables them for some reason

[@ceaialegeoficial]

Your tutorial is excellent. Very detail oriented explanaition. But for me it doesn't work. I have a Sony a5100, and no matter how I try to stabilize it, the gimbal will shake like an earthquake. I tried to set the strength to LOW and it keeps shaking. I though at first that the gimbal is defective, so I returned it and switched it with a new one. Same problem. What am I doing wrong?

[@JakeSloan]

It sounds like something still is not balanced all the way

[@wizardtv9523]

What buttons are you pressing to adjust the balance I’ve watched so much videos and can’t figure it out

[@JakeSloan]

There are little levers below the camera plate that you use to loosen and adjust the camera position and small screws on the gimbal arm that you loosen to move the arms around and then once balanced tighten them back up

[@Kaotix_music]

So I have An absolutely perfectly balanced gimbal. Not sure what’s going on but it violently shaking. I have a crane 2 that I upgraded from and never had this issue and I always switched things out all the time and had to rebalance. Anyone have this issue? Firmware is all updated and everything I’m not sure what the heck is going on

[@JakeSloan]

Check the motor strength and turn it down to see if that helps.

[@Kaotix_music]

@@JakeSloan im not exactly sure what happened, but I guess the stand for the lens wasnt up all the way on the lens. So when I took everything down to rebalance it again and start from square 1, I tightened that up to the lense and now its absolutely flawless. even with the motor strength on high. if I loosen that lens stand, it does the shake and bake again. So I guess that was my issue. Went from "im gonna return this thing" to "this is the best gimbal ive ever owned" lol

I bought my Weebill S several months ago but am just now trying to figure it out. Your videos are the best I've seen. My question is, can you use a relatively "light" camera with this gimbal like my Sony RX100 m7? I only see people with much heavier gear. I have a Sony A7iii, but I was hoping I could also use this with a lighter camera as well. Thanks for the great videos.

[@JakeSloan]

I think that will work or at worst you might have to add something to make it a bit heavier. I balanced my phone on it with a little extra weight on the plate. Cheers!

@@JakeSloan I hadn't thought of that. I'll have to give that a try. I was getting frustrated with my RX100 because I just couldn't get it balanced. But I was a complete newbie at gimbals of any type.

I almost always shoot with a zoom lens. The Tamron 17-28 is my go to at the moment for almost everything I shoot on this channel. It's a great pairing with the A9. If you have watched the last few videos on my channel the mic setup I am using (in this video) is the rode wireless go and lav mic. when I need an on camera mic I use the Deity D3 pro but lately I have really enjoyed the wireless unit with a lav hidden under my jacket for the out and about stuff. I would start with the wireless go and if you can add a lav mic (deity makes a great one for 50.00 or Rode makes their Lav go mic as well which is also great. Watch this video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqm5p6hna86fr6c if you want to see more detailed thoughts on it.

Double check your balance and then manually turn down the motor strength a little bit

does anybody know if i can apply these same instructions with an iphone xr and other attachments? want to do mobile filmmaking.

[@JakeSloan]

You can but you need to add weight to the phone to balance correctly

[@ChrisFlores22]

How come you have more to setup and can balance the thing on a tree and I can't balance it to save my life! a7iii with sigma 24-70. that's it and it wont balance. Help?

[@JakeSloan]

spend some time working each axis slowly to make sure you get it right don't move on until the first axis is good

Thank you so much

[@JakeSloan]

You're most welcome

[@alqersan]

I forget gimble and looking to the incredible view

[@JakeSloan]

I agree

[@okamibushi8567]

is the weebill s on when your balancing

[@JakeSloan]

No it should be off until it is balanced

[@michaelblosser5277]

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about regarding your accessories. The attached slide to the camara does not look like the one that I received with my Weebill S. The balancing is super straight forward if people already understands the 3 red locks and when to lock and unlock them. Sorry, this video only confused me. Yes, I have done this before and am only looking for a refresher since I have not used this unit in awhile.

Sorry to hear that
