CharacteristicsXiaomi stabilizer:
Unfortunately, Xiaomi marketers did not give their creations a specific name. But strengths This model has a lot:
  • Three-axis stabilization system
  • Rotation 320 degrees around its axis
  • Built-in battery for 6-8 hours of shooting
  • Convenient stick for controlling camera position
  • Possibility to control the camera from the Steadicam handle
  • 3 operating modes: tracking, horizon hold, selfie
  • Standard mount for any tripod and other photo accessories
  • Built-in Bluetooth module for synchronization with camera and smartphone
  • Fully compatible with such action camera models as: Yi Lite, Yi 4K, Yi 4K Plus
In general, this model has all the necessary functions that should be in a modern stabilizer.

Xiaomi stabilizer packaging
The Steadicam box looks quite standard:

Since the kit does not include a cover, the main part is made of very thick cardboard - don’t throw it away, because it will allow you to conveniently and safely transport your Steadicam.

Xiaomi Steadicam Equipment
The scope of delivery of the stabilizer from Xiaomi can be called minimal:

Xiaomi Steadicam itself:

A very common and affordable USB Micro cable:

Standard documentation and instructions in foreign languages:

Of course, the carrying case is really, really missing. As for the battery, it is built-in.


What you need to buy in addition to the Xiaomi stabilizer

Flexible tripod XL

Since the Steadicam has a standard place for mounting on a tripod, we recommend that you purchase a compact and flexible tripod.

This tripod will allow you to install your camera with a Steadicam on any surface and film everything you need without unnecessary shaking, freeing your hands. Buy now (click).

And even more useful and multifunctional mounts for Xiaomi action cameras Yi, you can look at:

Xiaomi Yi Steadicam Housing
It is worth noting the materials from which the Steadicam is made. After all, this is one of the first Steadicams made entirely of plastic - this had a positive effect on its weight, which is just over 200 grams.

At the bottom there is a mount for a tripod, and in addition, the platform itself is flat and allows you to install the Steadicam in a vertical position on a flat surface.


Unfortunately, the handle does not have a rubberized base, which will have a negative impact when shooting in summer or winter, when your hands may be wet. It is made of matte plastic.

  • Stick for controlling camera position
  • Steadicam power on/off button
  • Button for switching operating modes and calibration
  • Button for switching between shooting modes, as well as start/stop recording on the camera itself

On the left is a port for connecting a cable. This is a USB-Micro output.

And above we can see a carrier platform with 3 motors and the “Yi” logo:

The camera mounting bar is made of metal, and it is secured with two screws - the camera will be fixed completely and completely reliably.

The Xiaomi Steadicam fits quite comfortably in your hand; you can reach the stick and buttons with your thumb without any problems.

Such a stabilizer cannot be called premium, but considering its price and the set of all necessary functions, it is definitely worth the money (about 230-270 dollars)!

Xiaomi Steadicam operating modes
This stabilizer has three basic and necessary operating modes:
  • Tracking mode. When activated, the position of the camera will change following the change in the position of the handle: turn the hand to the right - the camera also moves to the right, to the left - the camera also moves to the left
  • Horizon hold mode: in this mode, the Steadicam will hold the camera position in one position, without reacting in any way to the position of your hand
  • And the last mode is selfie mode. When activated, the camera will turn in your direction (180 degrees) and you can take a photo of yourself)

These are the basic modes that most steadicams have. Dealing with them is not at all difficult, and switching occurs thanks to just one button.


Power supply for Xiaomi Steadicam
Unfortunately, like most modern steadicams, the Xiaomi stabilizer is powered by a built-in battery.

It will last you about 4-6 hours at above-zero temperatures. The manufacturer does not recommend using the stabilizer at temperatures below 0 degrees (as do other companies). Recharging is carried out via USB cable and any 2 amp adapter.


General impressions of the Yi Action Gimbal stabilizer
For ourselves, we have identified three main advantages:
  • Fully compatible with all Yi series of action cameras
  • Compact size and very light weight, which does not cause discomfort during long-term shooting
  • The presence of a stick and buttons to control the shooting process so as not to touch the camera itself

I would really like the guys from Xiaomi to make a replaceable battery in the future and add a carrying case to the kit - for those who travel a lot, this is vital. But in general, it turned out to be quite a good and modern steadicam for owners of Xiaomi Yi series action cameras.
