FOXTECH SEEKER-30 TIR 30X Optical Zoom Camera with 3-axis Gimbal
Warning and Disclaimer
Make sure not to adjust the gimbal or change its mechanical structure by yourself. Be
sure to mount the camera to gimbal before power on,and then install the gimbal on
the aircraft.
To avoid gimbal performance degradation or damage caused by imbalanced
payload,please do not add other peripherals for the gimbal camera (filter,hood,etc).
When in aerial photography,make sure your aircraft flight control system is working
at the safe mode.
We strongly recommend that you remove aircraft propellers before doing gimbal
configuration.Use extra non-power battery for gimbal.Keep children away from the
preset flight region.
Considering that we are not able to control user's specific usage,installation,
assembly,modification (including the use of non-specified parts ),and improper use.
Direct or indirect damage or injury caused by the behavior above, our company will
not cover any loss and responsibility.
