7. It is essential that the Motion Pro is in perfect
balance. This is achieved by adjusting the balance
controls. Control (A) shifts the camera left-to-right.
Control (B) shifts the camera fore-and-aft. Adjust both
these controls to level the camera. If more adjustment
is needed fore-and-aft an alternative slot in the camera
mounting plate can be used.

positions your cameras c.g. directly
above the centre of the gimbal.
