Hi guys, welcome to a new video.
Many of you voted at my latest poll for behind the scenes and vlog videos.
I searched the internet for a flexible and lightweight solution to film that kind of videos without a heavy camera.
I ordered the Uoplay 2S from Aibird
So I am going to show you this smartphone gimbal now.
So you probably think: What is that? Looks like a modern selfie stick?! But it´s not.
I will show you all features of the gimbal and test If it makes by videos better.
The gimbal arrived in this modern and clean package.
If you are from germany you can buy it at www.notjust4nerds.de
The delivery contains a carry bag, so your gimbal is protected while you are on the road.
You also get a guarantee card and a product passport which shows the inspection date.
The user guide in english is pretty short, but you find the extended one in the description box below.
The package contains two 2600 mAh batteries. You can always charge one while the other one is in use.
You also find a battery charger which is able to load one battery
You can connect it with a mini-usb cable at your PC or a power adapter
The micro USB cable is included, its a fabric braided cable and about 1m long
Furthermore you get a small elastic rubber band which you can use to secure your actioncams.
I really like the insert part of the packaging, everything is packed save for the transport
The gimbal is nicely made with aluminium. There is no plastic like the cheaper ones from other companys.
You can use all smartphones till 6 inches and a width about 82mm.
Its really nice that you can also use your actionscam, like the gopro hero
The rubber grip fits nicely in your hands and is very slip-resistent.
But I'm not sure how long the printed logo will last to it
Experience has shown that printing on rubber does not take too long
But you can buy new rubber grips at notjust4nerds in different colors.
I downloaded the Uoplay app at Googles playStore. You also get it at the AppStore for I-Phone Users.
You get some extra features with the app, which I will show you in this video
First off all I charged the batterys with the included battery charger.
The LED turns from red to green when they are fully charged
You have to remove the bottom part of the grip to insert the battery.
The positive pole (+) comes first
According to manufacturer, the batteries should have 5-6 hours of running time
With my smartphone I reached about 3 hours of running time.
the great advantage with this gimbal is that you can use both: your smartphone and actioncam.
Your device is well protected by the gumming around
even If you want to use your smartphone without a case.
To install your device you have to pull the clamp and hook it above your smartphone
An important point: never run the gimbal without a device
the control elements are very clear
Press the power button for two seconds to start your gimbal. The LED flashes blue.
This is the standby mode.
The motors are inactive right now and the smartphone isn´t balanced.
Especially heavy and big smartphones like mine (Samsung Galaxy S7) needs to be balanced first.
For this, you will loosen the lock screw located on the arm
Move the arm left until the center of gravity is balanced
I really like the scale, so you can do this step by step untill you reach the right point.
If you have adjusted everything correctly your smartphone will settle by itself in the droptest
It doesnt matter If you are doing it from top to bottom or the opposite way.
With a single click on the power button (standby-mode) you run the gimbal
The LED turns red and the three motors are activated.
The arm of the gimbal is now under tension and stabilizes the movements of your smartphone.
With the right Photo-Button you can start or stop your video-shoot or take a picture.
With the joystick on top, you can move your device.
In the app I connect both devices via bluetooth
At the beginning of my product test I walked this way with two smartphones at the same time.
If you ever tryed to film a video while you are walking you probably know how difficult it is to keep your movements still and smooth.
The direct comparison shows the huge difference between filming with an gimbal and without.
Especially when you are walking over steps the video without a gimbal is very shaky
The gimbal stabilizes my movements well. The result is a smooth video with a flying look.
My camera pans look a lot nicer too
Because the gimbal has a long handle, you are able to film nice perspectives near the ground
you don't need a camera dolly or something similar.
You can fly pretty close to other objects which gives a cool look for your film projects
When you are on the road and the batteries are empty you can charge the gimbal with a powerbank
Its possible to load the gimbal while you are filming
I use the included Mini-USB cable
Another nice feature is the charging function for your smartphone.
If you are filming a couple of hours your smartphone needs a lot of energy, especially if your device has a huge display
this feature allowes you to charge your phone with the gimbal batterys
This works during operation
During my product test I also tried the face tracking function
I have to admit that I didn't like this feature
the footage is pretty choppy especially If your movements are faster
the app finds your face only if your head is turned to the camera
Onother feature is the timelapse mode
You can find it in the left menu
Its a nice function to shoot a short clip with moving objects or persons
You can create a unique look for a special moment
I also had the chance to try some seperate accessories
You can also get this Mini-tripod at Notjust4Nerds.de
I really liked the tripod because it is small, lightweight and gives a save standing.
You can park the gimbal on almost any ground and do break without removing the device and turn off the gimbal
The tripod has a ball head, so you can adjust the angle
But you can also use your regular tripod, the gimbal has a 1/4 inch thread at the bottom part
I also ordered the remote control which allows you to control your gimbal from a longer distance
Its possible to use the remote control with a distance about 10m
I filmed this 360 degree video with the remote control and the mini tripod
This is another nice feature wich allows you to be part of the video. Like on a wedding or family party.
with a tripple click on the photo-button you start the vertical frame mode
this allows you to shoot videos or take photos in portrait mode
It is important to hold the gimbal as shown here
Otherwise the arm crosses the frame and you can damage the motors
I really like this feature. You can use it for your instagram Videos or live streams.
You also need this mode for your action cams
I've already set-in the GoPro Hero and secured it with the elastic rubber band
When changing from standby to follow mode your action cam is upright
I change the mode again with a triple click , like I´ve already shown
Here you can see some test footage with the GoPro Hero
Through the extreme wide angle your shots get a special look
Especially your tracking shot and pans look dramatic.
for today I've filmed enough but I would like to talk about one last feature: the puffer-turn-off
When you turn the gimbal off the motors are still active for some seconds, so your smartphone doesnt fall down
Cheaper gimbals dont have that feature so your smartphone or action cam can be damaged during the turn off.
For 300€ you get a nicely made gimbal with a very good quality and a lot of different mods.
I hope you like this video. If you have any questions left feel free to write a comment down below.
