Demo X7 From Florida Drone Supply

[Advexure]

SanCap, can you report on the balance of the lenses on the gimbal, when the drone is off? I have just purchased a full X7 set from @Advexure, and every single lens is back heavy on the gimbal. And I mean SERIOUSLY back heavy. I have scoured the internet for screenshots of others setting up the X7 with the drone off, and it seems others are having the same problem. I checked to confirm the included balancing ring was attached on all my lenses, and it was. Mine won't balance unless I take off the lens hood and add an extra 2 balancing rings (for a total of 3). It's also impossible to add extra balancing rings with the lens hood on, it only fits the stock one that comes with it.

The motor seems fine when I turn it on, but there will certainly be extra wear on the gimbal with this imbalance in the long run. I also worry about smoothness of panning when the motor is working hard to make up for the imbalance. What say ye?

Hi @Jaredpalick, thank you for your post, feedback, and tagging us on this X7 balancing subject. Just sent you a PM. We'll be in touch.

Thank for posting samples.
Would it be possible for you to take longer video with X7 hovering of the moving traffic, daytime and night?
Appreciate it

What video format do you want that in?

If you read the DJI specs carefully, they claim that all of the X7 lenses -except the 25mm will support a full frame sensor. So there is some degree of futue proofing there

Actually, it's only the 16mm X7 lens that would be incompatible with a FF sensor.

Right, Sorry for the misinformation. I think I had the full-frame equivalent instead of the actual focal length floating in my head.

2.7K ProRes at 59.94 fps with El Mode if you can. Thank you
