FLY-X3-Plus 3-Axis Smartphone
Gimbal Stabilizer

The FLY-X3-PLUS Gimbal from Ikan turns your mobile

phone or GoPro camera into a powerful image capture
tool, shooting fluid professional video and eliminating
shaky camera moves. The unique 3-axis brushless motor
gyro system uses sophisticated software to stabilize
your smartphone or GoPro, and makes pans, tilts
and even walking shots appear to “fly.” Complicated
steady rigs are difficult to balance but the FLY-X3­PLUS is easy to set up and operate. Simply place your
smartphone in the cradle with your lens to the left, then
level the FLY-X3-PLUS and turn on. The motors will
level within a few seconds, and you’re ready to shoot.

For a better handheld solution for the GoPro Hero 3 &

4, use a GoPro mount (FX3P-GPM, optional accessory).

The mount will enclose the GoPro while allowing

easy access to all buttons and quick-flip access to the

battery. The GoPro mount is custom-fit for utilizing the
GoPro on the FLY-X3-PLUS. To “fly” the GoPro, use the
cradle, and lock and refasten the GoPro frame. Capture
longer takes with the Gesture Control System. Initiate
Gesture Control by tilting and panning the handle,
and the camera will follow these movements smoothly.

Slows down the rate of tilt/pitch to stabilize against sudden and
quick tilting motions. To tilt the camera angle, simply tilt the
gimbal forward (away from you) or backward (toward you).

CONTROL BOARD
INSIDE THE BOX

ROLL AXIS MOTOR

Stabilizes the smart phone against side-to-side
movement of the handle.

03

PAN AXIS MOTOR

Slows down the rate of panning/turning to stabilize against
sudden and quick turning. This enables a controlled turn rate of
the camera, which protects against sudden camera turns. Simply
twist your gimbal left and right to see how this works.
