Motor Torque Adjustment After balancing WEEBILL 3S, the motor torque needs to be adjusted for proper function. You can adjust the motor torque according to the weight of your camera and lens, so that the WEEBILL 3S can be used in its ideal state. Following are three methods for adjustment. It is recommended to use auto-calibration. 1. Auto Calibration Auto calibration will adjust the motor torque according to the weight of the carried camera and lens. Operation steps: Press Menu / Return button to enter the menu. Rotate the fill light control wheel to select Motor torque and press the wheel to enter the next menu. Rotate the control wheel to select auto calibration and press the control wheel to confirm. The gimbal will then enter auto calibration mode. Please dont touch the gimbal and wait for the display screen to show the mark after the gimbal shakes. The auto calibration is then complete. 2.Custom The power determines the torque of the motor, and needs to be adjusted according to the camera and the lens on the gimbal. The power should be proportional to the weight of the load. A high power value will cause the gimbal itself to vibrate, while a value that is too low will affect the stability of the gimbal. Operation steps: Press Menu/Return button to enter the menu and select Motor Torque. Press the fill light control wheel to enter the next menu. Rotate the control wheel to select custom and press the control wheel to enter the adjustment interface. Rotate the control wheel to select the axis you wish to adjust and press the 24 control wheel to confirm. To set the power value, you can rotate the control wheel. To complete the setting, press the control wheel to exit the interface, press the Menu/Return button to save the settings and return to the previous menu. When the display screen shows the mark, the adjustment is complete. 3.Level Three motor torque levels from low to high are provided based on the combined weight of mainstream camera lenses available on the market. Users can select the corresponding motor torque level according to the weight of their camera and lens. Operation steps: Press Menu/Return button and rotate the fill light control wheel to select Motor torque. Press the control wheel to enter the next menu and rotate the control wheel to select level. Press the control wheel to enter the next menu, select your desired level and press the control wheel to confirm. When the display screen shows the mark, the selection is complete. When adjusting the motor torque, make sure that the lock switches of the three axes on the gimbal are turned on, and the gimbal is upright and placed on level ground. If a load is changed, please readjust the balance and adjust the power values using the method mentioned above. It is recommended to use auto-calibration first. If auto-calibration fails to meet your requirements, you can use custom settings to fine-tune the values. If the above two methods still do not meet your requirements, use the level adjustment to select the power. Bluetooth Shutter Control WEEBILL 3S supports Bluetooth shutter control, which allows you to wirelessly control the camera shutter without connecting a camera control cable. Before connecting the camera Bluetooth to WEEBILL 3S, please turn on the camera's Bluetooth and enter pairing mode. Then press the menu/return button on WEEBILL 3S to enter the main menu, rotate the fill light control wheel and select Bluetooth shutter control, and single press the fill light control wheel to confirm. WEEBILL 3S will then automatically search for the camera Bluetooth name. Select the Bluetooth name that needs to be connected, press the control wheel to confirm the connection, and finally confirm the connection on the camera. After WEEBILL 3S and the camera complete pairing and successfully connect Bluetooth for the first time, they can automatically connect to Bluetooth next time. When WEEBILL 3S and the camera are connected through both camera control cables and Bluetooth at the same time, the gimbal prioritizes controlling the camera function through the camera control cable. After WEEBILL 3S and the camera are connected via Bluetooth, the Bluetooth connection can be disconnected in the Bluetooth shutter control menu. For specific camera models that support Bluetooth control in WEEBILL 3S please visit the ZHIYUN official website www.zhiyuntech.com to check the "WEEBILL 3S Camera Compatibility List" for the latest information.

Motor Torque Adjustment After balancing WEEBILL 3S, the motor torque needs to be adjusted for proper function. You can adjust the motor torque according to the weight of your camera and lens, so that the WEEBILL 3S can be used in its ideal state. Following are three methods for adjustment. It is recommended to use auto-calibration. 1. Auto Calibration Auto calibration will adjust the motor torque according to the weight of the carried camera and lens. Operation steps: Press Menu / Return button to enter the menu. Rotate the fill light control wheel to select Motor torque and press the wheel to enter the next menu. Rotate the control wheel to select auto calibration and press the control wheel to confirm. The gimbal will then enter auto calibration mode. Please dont touch the gimbal and wait for the display screen to show the mark after the gimbal shakes. The auto calibration is then complete. 2.Custom The power determines the torque of the motor, and needs to be adjusted according to the camera and the lens on the gimbal. The power should be proportional to the weight of the load. A high power value will cause the gimbal itself to vibrate, while a value that is too low will affect the stability of the gimbal. Operation steps: Press Menu/Return button to enter the menu and select Motor Torque. Press the fill light control wheel to enter the next menu. Rotate the control wheel to select custom and press the control wheel to enter the adjustment interface. Rotate the control wheel to select the axis you wish to adjust and press the 24 control wheel to confirm. To set the power value, you can rotate the control wheel. To complete the setting, press the control wheel to exit the interface, press the Menu/Return button to save the settings and return to the previous menu. When the display screen shows the mark, the adjustment is complete. 3.Level Three motor torque levels from low to high are provided based on the combined weight of mainstream camera lenses available on the market. Users can select the corresponding motor torque level according to the weight of their camera and lens. Operation steps: Press Menu/Return button and rotate the fill light control wheel to select Motor torque. Press the control wheel to enter the next menu and rotate the control wheel to select level. Press the control wheel to enter the next menu, select your desired level and press the control wheel to confirm. When the display screen shows the mark, the selection is complete. When adjusting the motor torque, make sure that the lock switches of the three axes on the gimbal are turned on, and the gimbal is upright and placed on level ground. If a load is changed, please readjust the balance and adjust the power values using the method mentioned above. It is recommended to use auto-calibration first. If auto-calibration fails to meet your requirements, you can use custom settings to fine-tune the values. If the above two methods still do not meet your requirements, use the level adjustment to select the power. Bluetooth Shutter Control WEEBILL 3S supports Bluetooth shutter control, which allows you to wirelessly control the camera shutter without connecting a camera control cable. Before connecting the camera Bluetooth to WEEBILL 3S, please turn on the camera's Bluetooth and enter pairing mode. Then press the menu/return button on WEEBILL 3S to enter the main menu, rotate the fill light control wheel and select Bluetooth shutter control, and single press the fill light control wheel to confirm. WEEBILL 3S will then automatically search for the camera Bluetooth name. Select the Bluetooth name that needs to be connected, press the control wheel to confirm the connection, and finally confirm the connection on the camera. After WEEBILL 3S and the camera complete pairing and successfully connect Bluetooth for the first time, they can automatically connect to Bluetooth next time. When WEEBILL 3S and the camera are connected through both camera control cables and Bluetooth at the same time, the gimbal prioritizes controlling the camera function through the camera control cable. After WEEBILL 3S and the camera are connected via Bluetooth, the Bluetooth connection can be disconnected in the Bluetooth shutter control menu. For specific camera models that support Bluetooth control in WEEBILL 3S please visit the ZHIYUN official website www.zhiyuntech.com to check the "WEEBILL 3S Camera Compatibility List" for the latest information.
