Ultra-precise stabilization

The FeiyuTech brand is back with a unique gimbal that redefines what comfort of use, versatility of use and precision stabilization is. The F4 Scorp Pro is the revolution everyone has been waiting for. It features an ultra-efficient processor and W9 algorithms that drive the innovative “anti-shake” technology. The gimbal enables even more precise motion control and greater shock reduction. State-of-the-art electronics combined with brushless motors and a huge number of features to make working with your camera or camcorder easier will make the Scorpion King your greatest ally on small and large film sets!

Revolutionary detachable-controller-grip

The name of the new flagship from FeiyuTech did not come from nowhere. The gimbal’s distinctive shape resembles a scorpion getting ready to attack, but rest assured, you don’t have to fear it. Its tail, an innovative detachable grip with a touch screen LCD, will be your secret weapon when working on professional shots! You can connect it to the gimbal in a second to ensure the highest comfort of guiding your camera movements in different positions. After detaching the module you will also gain the ability to control the gimbal remotely. Built-in gyroscope allows you to replicate the movements made by the hand in which you hold the remote. When you move the controller to the left, the gimbal will also direct the camera lens in this direction. The intuitiveness of such control, and the natural smoothness of the resulting recordings will allow you to increase the quality of your productions and delight viewers.

Easy and convenient operation

Whether the detachable mount is connected to the gimbal or you use it for remote control, the touch screen will allow you to quickly and conveniently configure the necessary settings – both in terms of movement, modes and stabilization methods, as well as parameters related to the camera or camcorder used. Depending on the model of device you use for filming or shooting, you can manage the shutter release, start recording, change the aperture and ISO, and set the focus and zoom when using the follow focus system. Combined with the multifunctional ergonomic dials, you get a powerful tool that will allow you to work comfortably and conveniently, even when working alone.

Multifunction knobs

Multi-tasking knobs are another innovation that will take your video productions to a whole new level. With their help, you can conveniently perform precise movements on the selected axis without having to focus on the joystick or the screen. Their ergonomic arrangement allows you to smoothly guide the movement of the camera and control a predefined parameter at the same time. But that’s not all. The knobs can also manage electronic focus or a follow focus module purchased separately. An additional accessory will allow you to create even better videos! Gimbal can support up to 2 follow focus modules, so you can easily change the focus point or use the zoom when shooting demanding shots. With the FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro, your private focus puller will always be at your fingertips!

Predefined focus points

On the body of the F4 Scorp Pro gimbal, you’ll find three mysterious buttons labeled “A”, “B”, and “C”. This is another innovation that will make you love working with the new flagship from FeiyuTech. The buttons will allow you to define 3 selected gimbal axis settings, which you can switch between with a single click. If you work with a follow focus system you will appreciate this solution even more. Thanks to the predefined focus points, you can quickly and conveniently render the depth of your frames. The three different focus settings, which you activate with a single click, provide even more convenience, without having to turn the rings every time you want to highlight a particular subject or person in the foreground, background or background.

8 unique working modes

Working with the FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro gimbal will open up an ocean of new possibilities for filming and shooting. With 8 unique modes, you can unlock new layers of creativity and capture images as spectacular timelapses or panoramic photographs. Using the FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro, you’ll professionally program camera or camcorder movements, and with a single click, change axis settings that make it easier to take portraits or record yourself/yourself.

• Timelapse – Capture the passage of time using a technique that combines photography with film.
• Hyperlapse – Program motion between two points to create a time-lapse movie in which not only the time of day or the position of the objects being filmed changes, but also the angle of the camera or camcorder.
• Motionlapse – Program even more points that determine the position of the lens relative to your filmed subjects and discover new ways to tell stories with time-lapse video.
• Automatic rotation (Auto rotation) – Be like Christopher Nolan! Create unique shots where you move closer or further away from your subject while the camera rotates 360º around the lens axis.
• Panorama (Panorama) – Use the camera’s ultra-precise stabilization to take a panorama consisting of several photos that you can easily combine into an impressive work of art.
• Programmed Motion Sequence (Track video) – Want repeatable complex shots? Program camera movements for multiple points and the device will do all the work for you with clockwork precision!
• Portrait mode (Portrait mode) – Conveniently change the orientation of the camera to create videos in portrait or classic settings.
• Selfie mode (Selfie mode) – With one click, point the lens towards you to record a vlog or take a commemorative selfie.

Purpose versatility

At the bottom of the unit, you’ll find a built-in Arca-Swiss standard rail that will allow you to conveniently mount the gimbal on a tripod without having to reach for additional accessories. Prefer to use a quick release or connect the FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro directly to a monopod or slider? No problem! The manufacturer has taken care of the 3/8″ thread with the included 1/4″ adapter. Thanks to this, working with the device does not have to be limited only to “hand-held” shots, and connecting the gimbal with camera taps or sliders will open up completely new possibilities of image creation!

5 stabilization modes

The FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro handheld gimbal for VDSLR cameras and camcorders offers five different stabilization modes that allow you to adjust the device’s performance characteristics to the specific shots you want to take. State-of-the-art anti-shake algorithms and finely tuned brushless motors allow you to achieve perfect smoothness of movement, varying response speeds and repositioning of the camera or camcorder within the selected axes.

• Panning Mode (PF) – In this mode, the camera or camcorder smoothly follows the rotation of the mount while maintaining a fixed position relative to the horizon line.
• Lock mode (Lock) – the camera or camcorder lens maintains a fixed direction – rotation on all axes is locked in a defined position.
• Tracking mode (PTF) – in this mode, the camera or camcorder smoothly follows the rotation of the mount and in up-down directions.
• Mode of multi-axis tracking (FPV) – the camera or camera lens smoothly follows the movement of the gimbal handle in all three axes.
• Fast Response Mode (FFW) – the camera or camcorder quickly and dynamically follows the rotation of the handle while maintaining a fixed position relative to the horizon line.

Perfect balance

Five balance adjustment points and extendable arms allow you to perfectly balance your camera or camcorder with a maximum weight of 4.8kg. This task is made even easier thanks to ergonomic locks and special movable red dot markers, with which you can determine the optimum position for the rails. A seemingly small innovation will make the preparation of the gimbal for work never again be a long and tiring ritual! The device will perfectly cope with both larger cameras and long telephoto lenses. If working with a gimbal is a completely new experience for you, check out the instructional videos available in a special application Feiyu SCORP. With short step-by-step videos, you’ll learn how to use the Scorpion to your 100% advantage!

Convenient operation from your smartphone

The Feiyu SCORP app is not only an easy way to quickly and efficiently learn about the product, its capabilities, and how to configure it from the “Skill” tab. It’s also another way to control the movements of the device and personalize the settings. With the app, you will configure the sensitivity of the motors and response speed, automatically calibrate the gimbal, download software updates, and run the joystick on the touch screen of your smartphone. Feiyu SCORP will also let you manage the functions of your compatible camera when you connect it to the gimbal using one of the included cables.

Pod and handle in one

Included with the gimbal is a unique handle, which also serves as a tripod. This accessory will come in handy not only when balancing a camera or camcorder, but also when shooting shots that do not require you to work “handheld”. With the help of the handle, you can also work with FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro in the same way as with traditional handheld gimbals held vertically. The manufacturer also did not forget about non-slip padding and feet. Regardless of whether the accessory will serve as a tripod or a handle, you can be sure that the gimbal will remain in place.

12 hours of operation on a single charge

The FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro gimbal features 4 built-in batteries with a capacity of 2500 mAh each. With proper balance of the camera or camcorder installed on the device, they will provide up to 12 hours of continuous operation! You can quickly and conveniently charge the gimbal from the USB-C port. Thanks to the support for Quick Charge technology it will take less than 3 hours to replenish power in the device. And if you’re planning a really long shooting day, the FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro will easily connect to a power bank that can power the gimbal while in use.

Safe transport

When you choose the FeiyuTech F4 Scorp Pro handheld gimbal for VDSLR cameras and camcorders, you will receive a handy padded zippered carrying case. It allows you to safely store your device and additional accessories. Inside you will find ergonomic compartments to keep your gear in place, even on long trips over bumpy roads. The manufacturer also took care to make optimal use of the interior of the upper part of the case. Velcro fastened divider will allow you to separate small accessories, so that during your film or photographic expeditions, you will not have to look for them in pockets or at the bottom of the backpack. Everything you need to ensure perfect image stabilization is packed into one suitcase!
