English: 
All these footages were filmed
using by 3-axis stabilizer
Nebula 4000 Lite.
At the first part of the review I have already talked about its capabilities.
It took a 3 weeks of testing. Now I think that deal with control completely.
I do not to pretend to be an objective evaluation of the device,
because almost all of the tests were held on the street in winter,

Russian: 
Все эти кадры были сняты
с использованием 3-осевого электронного стабилизатора
Nebula 4000 Lite.
В первой части обзора я уже рассказывал о его возможностях.
Прошло 3 недели испытаний, я и думаю, что разобрался с управлением полностью.
Не претендую на объективную оценку работы устройства,

Russian: 
потому что почти все тесты проводились зимой на улице,
что накладывало негативный отпечаток.
Очень часто из-за ветра и холода возникали проблемы.
Тем не менее, то что мне удалось снять за эти дни впечатляет.
Как и прежде, я считаю, что за подобными маленькими стабами будущее.
Но, обо всём по порядку.
У меня никогда раньше не
было 3-осевых электронных стабилизаторов,
Nebula - первый.
Но вот, что я заметил:
Nebula - определенно девушка,
и определённо с характером,
к ней просто нужен свой подход.
Начнем с того, что каждый раз, когда я тестировал стаб дома,
он работал прекрасно.
Все проблемы начинаются на улице:
сбивается равновесие, плывёт горизонт,
мощности двигателя недостаточно,
появляется вибрация, остаются покачивания при беге.
Мне кажется, летом этих проблем не должно возникнуть.
Минус: не любит холод.
С другой стороны, на подвес можно поставить длиннофокусный объектив
с открытой диафрагмой
и снять просто изумительная кадры,

English: 
what imposed a negative imprint.
Very often there were problems because of the wind and cold.
Nevertheless I impressed by footages I've made during this days.
As before I believe that such small stabilizers have a big future.
But first things first.
I had never have 3-axis digital gimbal stabilizers,
Nebula is my first one.
But here's what I noticed:
Nebula definitely a girl and certainly with character
it just needs its own approach.
Let's start the fact that every time I tested the stab at home
it worked fine.
All the problems started in the street:
gets off balance, gets off horizon
engine power is insufficient,
vibrations, remain shaking when running.
It seems to me, in the summer these problems should not arise.
Minus: does not like the cold.
On the other hand you can mount telephoto lens on the stab
with the open aperture
and make ama-a-azing footages

Russian: 
которые невозможно было бы снять с рига или стедикама.
Плюс: хорошо стабилизирует длиннофокусные объективы.
Еще в самом начале я заметил,
что в 3 режиме камера медленно поворачивается (в 1 и 2 режимах всё нормально).
Я прочитал, что низкие температуры влияют на работу сенсора, 
его нужно перекалибровать.
Это помогло.
 Один раз.
А в другой раз не помогло, вращения остались.
Специалисты посоветовали мне поиграть со значением Yaw-trim,
но это тоже не решило проблему.
Так вращения и остались,
иногда они есть, иногда нет.
Минус: непредсказуемость работы.

English: 
that could not be made using rig or steadicam.
Plus: good stabilizes telephoto lenses.
At the very begining I noticed
at the 3 mode the camera slowly turns (at 1 and 2 modes everything is fine).
I have read that low temperatures affect to the sensor
it needs to be recalibrated.
It helped.
One time.
And the other time it does not work. Rotation stayed.
Experts advised me to play with the value of 'YAW trim',
but it also does not solve the problem.
Rotation stays.
Sometimes they are, sometimes not.
Minus: unpredictability of work.
For some reason I did not immediately deal with management Stabia via bluetooth from your phone,

Russian: 
Я почему-то не сразу разобрался с управлением стабом по bluetooth с телефона,
а потом разобрался.
Если вывести изображение с камеры по Wi-Fi на один телефон,
а со второго управлять подвесом,
то жизнь заиграет новыми красками.
Это мечта любого ребенка — вот так управлять направлением камеры.
На сам стаб в этот момент даже не обязательно смотреть.
Жирный плюс: возможность управления стабом с телефона.
Стабилизаторы очень маленький.
Да, на него обращают внимание прохожие,
но не воспринимают всерьез охранники. 
Он не выглядит, как что-то профессиональное
- это очень хорошо, снимать можно где
угодно.
Но его габаритов иногда не хватает,
случайно задеваешь подвесом за
камеру, её начинает лихорадочно трясти.
Приходится выключать и включать моторы заново.
Минус: не хватает габаритов и ограничения в 1кг.
Стабилизатор хорош и сам по себе,
но в паре с моноподом они дают
широчайший простор для фантазии.

English: 
and then figured out.
If you display an image from the camera via Wi-Fi on one phone
and from the second control suspension,
then life will sparkle with new colors.
It is the dream of any child - like that control the direction of the camera.
On the stub itself at this point do not even need to look at.
Fat plus: the ability to control the phone from Stabiae.
Stabilizer is very small.
Yes, it pay attention to passers-by,
but do not take seriously the guards.
It does not look like something professional,
it's very good, you can shoot where
anything.
But its size is sometimes not enough,
accidentally hits for suspension
camera, it starts to frantically shake.
We have to turn off and turn on the engines again.
Minus: not enough dimensions and constraints in 1kg.
The stabilizer is good in itself,
paired but they provide a monopod
wide scope for the imagination.

Russian: 
Я пробовал закреплять стаб на конце 5-метровой палки,
но быстро понял, что это очень неудобно —
край со стабилизатором сильно раскачивается.
Поэтому я взял себе двухметровый компактный алюминиевый монопод.
В сложенном состоянии он не
доставляет неудобств,
а двух метров достаточно для большинства задач.
Я также закреплял телефон в нижней части для управления,
но это не всегда удобно в использовании.
Лучше всего, если один человек будет ходить с камерой и моноподом,

English: 
I tried to fix the stub at the end of the 5-meter sticks,
but quickly realized that it was very uncomfortable -
edge of the stabilizer is strongly shaken.
So I took a two-meter compact aluminum monopod.
When folded, it is not
cause discomfort,
and two meters is enough for most tasks.
I also fixed the phone at the bottom to control
but it's not always convenient to use.
Best of all, if one person will walk with a camera and monopod,
and another behind him, with two phones.
This team generally can not limit yourself to work.
- That's what I've noticed is the ball for outsiders.
Firstly, this suspension does not stand Canon, they are too heavy and large.
Secondly, it is not written for the iPhone app, it is available only for Androyd.
And third, we do not have such long manfrotto and convenient monopod.
This coincidence is not often,
but still that moment has arrived.
Three out of three. Enjoy!

English: 
Stabilizer comes in impact-resistant case.
In addition to the stabilizer there perfectly placed more
camera with a pair of lenses and batteries.
Convenient to carry a small backpack with monopod.
Plus: a protective case.
By the way, better to twist the monopod so
the stabilizer was at the narrow end,
hands to remain thick portion, it is more charged,
and so easier to manage.
Non-removable battery, holds 1.5-2 hours,
but it is easy to find an external 12-volt battery.
I used this, he gave me a couple of times already rescued.
What else can be mounted on the suspension,
but you need to keep in mind that it will not always directed to the same place and the camera.
I felt comfortable entrenchment directional microphone
I think, in the tracking mode, it may well be used.
Cons: Not very convenient to use dodger.
Control the camera with the two phones is very convenient.
This can make anyone.
So, write down the item I ka again in the pros.
This is very cool!

English: 
Owners of iPhones does not seem dagadyvayutsya about this amazing opportunity.
More can be removed with a two-meter luxury self stick.
All chicken obzaviduyutsya glamorous.
From the fact that the camera leads to the third rezhiem can still accept,
but skewed horizon is often annoying.
This occurs each time for one minute after each switch,
even in the heat, even in the cold.
I was advised to put 3 mode to activate the default,
it really helped, immediately after switching on the horizon for the second aligned,
but the next minute he still leads.
No sensor calibration or other parameters have not decided the issue,
every time you have to wait.

English: 
I hope this is a problem only my devaysa, others such problems will not be.
Less: need to wait a minute after switching on.
I really like the fact that almost all the parameters of I can change.
For example the value of a remote area and smoothness.
If you think
that the stabilizer is too slow fulfills dexterity in tracking mode,
simply reduce these parameters, and everything will be fine.
On the other hand, all the parameters of engine power and PID-controllers always need to be configured properly,
they need a good deal, spend a lot of time studying.
In Moscow, helped me to understand the guys from "CopterTime".
Less: difficulty settings.
Now about how to set up the suspension, for those who already have it.
The first step is slightly untwist 8 bolts.
Camera set as close to the engine,
ignoring the fact that access is limited to the bolts.

English: 
Move the camera back and forth to the equilibrium position, fix its bottom screws.
Now, carefully move the platform horizontally and vertically to the equilibrium position.
There should be no lowering of the sides (the unstable equilibrium position)
or return to the center (stable equilibrium), all strictly in the middle.
In this position, the engine will be easier to control the camera.
Turn the camera 45 degrees alternately at 4 sides,
in all positions, it should be retained due to friction in the engine.
After zero is found, disconnect the camera and tighten the 8 screws.
Install the camera and check back now, there are no obstruction to the side, if you tilt the entire stub.
If one edge still outweighs, it is necessary to promote a more 6 screws from the bottom.
The lower court can not be moved to an arbitrary value, there are only 3 positions
select the most suitable option for you.
It's okay if the debris still remain,
it is not critical to the bottom of the engine, it is the least loaded.
Calibration.

English: 
Fastened under the camera sensor, which measures its position in space.
It needs to be calibrated.
To fix the camera in this horizontal position,
include suspension and press the red button 4 times, it will calibrate gyros.
Press 5 times - and it will calibrate accelerometers.
This procedure should be repeated periodically, if the suspension is not working properly.
When the camera is freely hanging on the hanger (indifferent equilibrium position), the setup process is complete.
The next time you will only need to set the camera position.
By default, after the activated profile 1 or "tracking mode"
camera fulfills all moving handle.
If you press the red button 2 times, 2 switched mode
chamber is fixed vertically and now travels horizontally only.
If you press 3 times, 3 mode is activated, and the camera does not rotate.
Push the red button once again and turn on 1 mode.
Within this set of suspension of 8-bit controller

English: 
from the company "BaseCam Electronics" or "AlexMos", it was founded Alexei Moskalenko,
Russian so a manual and user interface of the program-tuner to use even more convenient than English.
This does not often happen. Again, enjoy!
Eight-bit controller is already outdated,
Nevertheless, it is very often used in three-axis electronic suspensions because it was cheaper.
To configure it using a program "SimpleBGC", all links are in the description.
To have an android application with the same name.
We connect through suspension cable miniUSB, click "Connect".
There are a lot of tabs and settings that can be configured,
but half of them will not be needed,
as originally controller was designed for suspension for drones (quadrocopter).
First of all we are interested in the tab "Basic" or "Basic".
Here the parameters which are responsible for quality stabilization.
On the suspension has 3 engines: pitch (pitch), roll (roll) and yaw (yaw)
each of them is responsible for a turn in its plane.
Each engine has three PID-regulator.

English: 
P - the sensitivity of the motor, I - speed leveling suspension, D - reverse compensation sensitivity (P).
These parameters must be chosen empirically for each camera,
but the factory settings that were already on the nebula after purchase,
immediately came to my camera (GH4 + Olympus 9-18mm).
Before you change anything, it is strongly recommended to save the profiles of all three modes to your computer.
A button "to return the default settings" it is better not to press, it is not for you, by default everything falls to zero.
If you decide to customize your own suspension, the description has links to detailed manuals.
Fine-tuning is necessary to carry out once for a single camera.
Make sure that the motor does not overheat,
do not expose too large values ​​at once, it can harm the engine.
Reliable likely be asked to do this professionals
three-axis adjustment of the suspension - a special art of requiring experience.
What other tabs will be needed.
Follow mode. So called modes 1 and 2 of the stabilizer,
when the camera smoothly follows the action of the operator.

English: 
The combination of these ticks determines 1,2 or 3 modes.
The following two parameters are very important - mёrtaya area and exponential curve.
The first is responsible for the sensitivity with which the camera will start to practice turns.
The second option - for how many will work smoothly stabilization.
In fact, these are the main parameters that we can change,
depending on what we want to obtain smooth output.
In the "Diagnostics" you can view graphs of values ​​removed from the gyroscopes and accelerometers.
"Tools" tab. Firstly, you can turn off the sound confirmation of commands. Without them comfortable.
More can be removed galibrovku gyroscopes and aklselerometrov 4 and 5 clicks to accidentally not include them.
Calibration of gyroscopes well put on a long press,
and calibrate accelerometers are often still do not need.
The rest of the tab is not likely to be needed.
What else you need to know.
By default, after the works the profile that you recorded last.

English: 
Conveniently, it was 3 profile
Practice shows that this sight immediately gets to zero.
All the same tabs and options there are in the application on Android,
Only there still is a tab "Control", which is not here.
If you set up everything for themselves, it is quite convenient to control suspension,
difficult only gradually stop rotation.
Developers: it would be good to point mode velocity gradually returned to zero.
- An escalator can be enabled at any time.
Despite all these drawbacks I still was very pleased Nebula
because of the very fat plus - it has no analogues.
It is very small, it works, and it only costs $ 700,
that can not afford even an ordinary mortal.
Yes, it will have to tinker,
but if she is naughty, it is most likely due to incorrect settings.
- I must say that I do not always treated her with care,
shot several times in the snow, but nothing happened, nothing broke.

English: 
Paired with GH4, A7s, a monopod, two phones and the second operator
can be removed simply amazing picture.
And you can not remove))
To buy or not - decide for yourself.
My name is Peter Sterlikov,
in the description there are a bunch of useful links
blog a more complete story.
So Long!
