Gimbal Ikan Fly-X Plus

Gimbal Ikan Fly-X3 Plus

Looking to improve your video on both your smartphone and GoPro? It’s time to get a gimbal to stabilize your footage and get some great videos. Walk along with your smartphone recording video, not the video footage shakiness. A gimbal will remove that, make your videos pro quality, and help you create better content even during live streaming.

I recently purchased the Ikan Fly-X Plus because it’s rating, easy to use, comes with GoPro & Smartphone holders, and has an extra battery in the kit. Check out this example and figure out which side is showing the footage while using the gimbal.
