3. Calibrate the gimbal - Turn on the gimbal and select the AutoTune icon. Select Start Calibration to tune up the motors for you camera/lens combination. Either normal or supersmooth works well for most shots.

RS3 Setup 

Setting up your RS3 for the First Time

For the best performance on your RS3 Gimbal, you will want to follow the following configuration steps:

1. Swipe up on the Home screen 
2. Set the Joystick Speed to Medium or Low
3. Set the Joystick smoothness to Medium or Low
4. Use the Mode Switch on side of gimbal and set to PTF (Recommended) or PF. Make sure you are not in FPV mode. 
5. Note: If you need to use FPV mode you will need to set the Follow Mode from the home screen to custom as the FPV default disables the Pan and Roll control. We don't recommend you do this as the other basic modes work fine.

DJI RS3 Focus Motor Setup 

Note: The DJI 2022 Focus Motor and the RS2 Focus Motor should both work with the RS3 Gimbal

3. Set the Dial function to the focus motor
4. Swipe down to return to the main menu and swipe down again then select the settings menu
