The Moza Aircross 2 gimbal is made by Gudsen and is designed for smaller mirrorless cameras, such as the Sony Alpha cameras. In this tutorial, I show how to properly balance the Aircross 2 using a heavy lens setup.
The Aircross 2 can support payloads up to 3.2kg or about 7 pounds.

Even on my pan axis it keeps on rotating but mostly help me on sleep mode problem
Honestly, this is one of the best videos for this gimble.
Thanks so much for making this tutorial! I got my Aircross 2 today and was able to get it up and running in about fifteen minutes thanks to your video. I’m sure it would have taken hours otherwise! Exceptionally well presented and extremely helpful.
got my Aircross 2 and loving it. And i love the gimble balancing tutorial - absolutely awesome!
thank you so much!!! I was about to start the biggest crying session when I discovered your video and it helped me soooo much! I felt in love with this gimbal. it's my first one so it's nearly perfect to me :D
I purchased this gimbal as my first one, found the instructions and tutorials hard to follow/understand until I came across yours, thank you, thank you and thank you.
Thanks a lot for this wonderful tutorial. I was getting lost with the official tutorials and this one is rteally wonderful. Great job.
Official tutorial was horrible. I concure, great video. Thanks
Great review and tutorial. Very clear and well explained. Thanks.
Thanks, this helped a lot compared to other videos! Especially the balancing part. Just subscribed.
Thank you for a great video. I'll be saving up for this one.
Dude, this is an amazing video. You deserve way more views!!
Do you have another tutorial on this with more advanced steps since you have been using this?
I was so thankful for this tutorial given it was my first experience with a gimbal and I struggled figuring it out in my own. Debated about returning it even until I found your video. Super clear instructions!
Thanks for this detailed lesson, I have mine on order.
man thanks a lot I bought this Gimble not long time ago and when I need to balance it I refer to your video Thanks A lot!!
great explanation of the setup. Well done thanks
This is fantastic. Thank you so much
This video was great!!!! I loved this video, it helped me set up pretty quick! The first video I saw of someone else explaining it confused me. So I’m glad I’m able to subscribe to your channel
Glad it helped!
Time saver. Thank you very much for this video!❤
WOW!!! The best precise video on TH-cam to get started. Way better than the manufactures very confusing videos. Very well explained. This is my first ever Gimbal for videography. I was pretty much clueless on the menu set up. This has taught me all the functions and operations that are available on the Moza Aircross 2. If you could do a video on general shooting technique for different occasions, that would be awesome.
Thanks for watching! Glad it helped!
A Very clear and well explained tutorial. I hope you do more soon.
thanks, and thanks for watching
much valuable video each n everything described well thank you so much
thanks so much for this video, what a life saver!
Just picked up the Aircross 2 and I have to say, if it wasn't for your video, I'd still be trying to balance it. Thank you SO MUCH for putting this together. You've earned another sub!
thanks for watching Andrew
the best tutorial there is, thanks
REALLY good instruction and review. Thanks
Thanks for the detailed video.
Any advice on how to put into inverted mode. Thanks
Thank you so much for this!!!
Thank u so much it helped me alot
I saw so many vidoes on YT but your video was so much helpful to me💓♥️
thanks for watching Hamza
@@EvanThomas thanks to u for uploading that helpful video for us
It took me a couple of months to decide if I wanted to go with the Weebill S or the Moza Aircross 2. Along with a few other videos as well as your tutorial video on this, I chose the latter. Even if it means I'll be losing out on some customization with the accessories to add on the Weebill S. You got yourself a sub good sir!
Thanks for this man , subscribed
This helped a lot, I noticed removing the quick release mount and mounting directly to the L bracket let me center it better which meant my balancing didn't need to be directly on the ends of some of the axis...which also meant that the power needed for tilt, roll and pan wasn't as high...where I was seeing 90+ on roll and pan the first time, now I'm seeing 74 and 54 respectively
good to know, thank you!
Great Video thank you i just got mine this evening, alas none of the cables are for my Nikon Z6 if you know any places i can get them help appreciated
Great video, thank you so much
Great video!. Thanks a lot. Do you think we can you set the follow focus to zoom instead?
finally i found the best tutorial for balancing the camera, write it on a notes great part hahaha, thanks bro...
just finishing setup for sony a6000 using a multi/C cable and connect to the gimbal with USB Multi on the camera list...
next... lets having fun with the features.... ahahaha
Very helpful thank you 💯🙏🏼
Hi Evan.
Superb tutorial.
You have a friend for life.
You have a gift for sublime communication.
Skol!
Totally ussful!! Thank you!
Thanks for your help 🔥🔥
perfectly explained well done sir
I’m curious so completely packing your cameras with batteries, nd filters, etc before balancing - does that include hdmi cable from monitor?
thank you for explaining how to use this gimbal, i am using a Panasonic lumix G95 camera with a comica mic and I had to add a hotshoe to connect the mic sideways and attach the hotshoe on the camera, and then I'm able to balance and calibrate it properly.
This is very Helpful 👍🏻👍🏻
In the creative video settings - After going through all the steps to set up a motion path for a time lapse recording, is there any way to save the settings for recall later?
Thankyou for this very informative video. Using a zoom lens, would you balance the gimbal with the zoom extended or retracted, or about half way, Presumably this depends on your predictive usage before the shoot?
How do you go about setting up the camera and connecting it to the gimble? Is it as easy as just connecting a cord and something shows up on the camera and you follow the prompts? Or is there a particular setting you must put the camera to? Thanks!
Hey bro need help with sleep mode after updating the new firmware
Mine arrived today, outstanding tutorial! Would have liked to see you cover the various cables that come with it.
Congratulations! How much can it hold to have great quality footage!
Nice review of the Moza aircross 2!
thanks Julia!
Okay so I’ve had this for months and could not figure out how to get it to work. I watched this video once and you helped me figure it all out. So THANK YOU. Turns out I was doing everything backwards 🤦🏻♀️😂
Nice video, can this gimbal be used on FujiFilm A-X7
Hi Evan. Thank you for your great video. I'm about to purchase the Moza aircross 2 and I have an important question: I see many people who own a gimbal use a monitor especially when they want to take low tilting shots like footsteps for example. Some add a handle too. Do you really need a monitor? Should I invest in one too?
Nice work. Beautiful assistant)
Hello from Russia) 🙏
Hellow, very interesting video, i have a question ....in the screen , switch/ power /filter...switch goes to OFF without any action...what happen? best regards from Chile
Great video, for the owners of a Panasonic FZ-1000 and a Aircross 2 gimbal, you can use the Panasonic app with your smartphone and broadcast the image from the camara to your phone while you record and at the same time use the mimic control of the Aircross 2 and control the movements from the gimbal, it is awesome!
hi great video I followed all your instructions to balance the gimbal but when I switched the power on it just continuously shakes the camera? I try to go to the autotune but it won't allow me to do so. any suggestions
So would a moza aircross 1 hold a rebel t6 which is a mirrored camera work with it
Hello, do you know if it works with Canon 80d + sigma 18-35 ?
I am not an english speaker, but I understood everything, nice explanation, thank u!!
Good morning to you Sir how do i updates or install updated on the Gimbal thank you
hi there, this is such a good tutorial for balancing a moza aircross 2 thank you I followed all your instructions to balance my BMPC 4K and everything seemed balanced but when I switched on the gimbal the whole thing was vibrating? any ideas what this could be please?
Thanks for the video.
You are welcome!
If i have this setup vertically will the gimbal get in the way when shooting and moving it around especially in lower angle shots?
Hey Evan,
what's a good tool you can recommend for editing videos?
Best moza aircross 2 review I have ever seen
Thank you :)
do you have the link to the quick release plate?
Is there any way to attach a field monitor to this ?
I have a question
It’s posible pair my Sony a7ii via Bluetooth or cable?
Have you tried the Professional Kit version with the iFocusM Motor? Does iFocusM Motor add any value to shooting at all?
Does this gimbal work on my nikon d7000 and a 18-140
Is there anyway you can show how to balance it vertically. My gimbal always go to sleep mode when i try to balance it vertically
Hello Great Job. I balanced my aircross 2 in less then 15 minutes. But I also can't start recording film with my Sony Alpga 7. I only realized to take photos but not to record. didn't you find any way to do it?
I'm new to videography, is this beginner-friendly and good for a first gimbal? would you recommend using this gimbal with a canon eos 70d + canon 18-55mm lens?
Did you do a video on the Moza air 2?
Is Moja aircross 2 comfortable with canon 80d sigma 17-50mm f2.8 lens?
Hi Evan! What should I do if Iwd like to shoot with this gimbal upside down (holding it in a way that the little tripod is facing up and the camera is on the lower part, to shoot a leg level tracking fhot for instance)? When i tried this the motors freaked out and died. What mode should i be in? Should I lock some of the parameters? Thank you!
hi, i have moza aircross 2 gimbal. I want to connect Sony A7R3 camera and 24-70 lens to it. As you say, when making autotone, the balance values are high, it seems like it forces the gimbal motors a little, how can I find a solution to this. Thanks.
So I rebalanced with your tutorial again and it works well, but I notice micro jitters. My way of fixing this is to gimbal > motor > power and switch to ultralight. I am not sure if the vibrating affects footage, but I rather it not be giving me vibration. Have you experienced this? I am using an a7iii and tamron 28-75.
Doesn't the 24-105 lens unbalance the gimbal when you are using zoom due to glass element movement ?
Hey Evan! thanks so much for sharing. You went a bit way too fast for me there.. I just can't figure out HOW TO BALANCE THE ROLL THING? IT always comes in the way. Like what you are showing at 9:09. The Gimbal's base rod, the Last Pan axis is coming in the way, and roll axis can't just go about it. IS IT NORMAL? Don't we want our gimbal to be able to just go round n round and round?
A quick reply will be highly appreciated. I need to see if I need to return the gimbal ? :( :( :(
good video👍
Best tutorial
thank you
thank u thomas bhai
Can you please tell me why there are so many leads with it and what they are for ?
Great video! Thank you! The manufacturer videos leave a lot to be desired. I’m surprised how little you can roll with this gimbal.
Thanks for watching!
I use canon 200d/SL2 with a Tamron 17-50 f2.8, and BOYA wireless mic receiver. My setup weights 1,120 grams in total. do you think that gimbal will perform well??

Hi evan! I enjoyed your video so much :) . I have a question... in my case the sleep mode keeps popping out
Have the same problem need help
Hello. Could pls help me with my problem: recently a bought this gimbal, and using it with my Sony a6400 + 16-50mm lens ( that’s is the whole set up). And from the beginning, my gimbal started shaking, and even autotune didn’t solve that problem. So I should manually change motor parameters, including motor - power up to 10/15/20, and motor - filter up to 30/10/8 And such parameter’s works well, but if I manually tilt my camera down, or trying to shoot low angles, it starts shaking again. And I need to change the motor’s parameters that work for a specific purpose. Does it mean that I can’t use these motors parameter’s for whole shooting angles and situations, and every time need to change them, depend’s on the angle I want to shoot? Is there any universal solution, or maybe motor parameters that work well in all situations? The same thing happens when I want to use my Sony flip screen - gimbal start’s shaking, but as far as I understood it because of dis-balancing? And one more thing - every time I’m using inception mode ( with different motor’s parameters), and put the gimbal in a «flashlight position» while the gimbal rolling, I can feel kind of light pulls or pushes that comes from the motors, for a full 360-degree roll it’s like 2 pushes. So footage comes not super smooth and you can see these pushes on the video. If I hold my gimbal vertically with the camera looking up, there is no such problem. Is that a normal reaction of my gimbal in the inception mode, or it is because my camera is very light? Thank you
Very helpful thank you! Not sure if you can help but Im struggling with my Moza Aircross 2 as the motor shakes alot everytime I tilt 45 degree to the right.. I used A6400 with 18-105 lens and calibrated correctly and balanced the gimbal but something is not quite right.. Its worse when I use lighter lens..(eg sigma 30)
have you updated the firmware, i know a firmware update dealt with this issue
Great advice. Love it. Although I do wish the suggestion to add the mic before balancing had come before the balancing. 😅
