<h3><u>Explanations in French</u></h3> <h3>(English translation below)</h3> • I've recently acquired a FeiyuTech WG2X stabilizer to film mountain bike videos. Unfortunately, during my first test, the rendering wasn't as desired. Afterwards, I understood that the main issue came from my harness, which was not stable enough and made the video shake up and down... On the internet, many people buy a "Stuntman" harness for more comfort and support on the torso but it costs 40€... So I took the initiative to modify mine: • I kept the old harness and cut it skillfully so that it fits between the straps without losing too much solidity. I fixed it with screws and put foam at the back to hide the screw heads and for more comfort. For more support, I placed my backpack tightening over the harness. • I noticed a clear difference in stability: For the settings of my Feiyu WG2X, I left all default settings except that I set "smooth" mode. The rendering is very stable knowing that I use a GoPro Session 4 and there's no integrated stabilization. I think one can achieve perfection if one tightens more the harness on the chest but it's up to you to find the solution. <h2>If you have any questions, don't hesitate because it's not cool to have poor stabilization for 120€</h2> <h3> <u>English Google Translation</u> </h3> • I recently bought a FeiyuTech WG2X stabilizer to film mountain bike videos.
