From an airplane perspective: it rotates clockwise. In other words, it tilts to the right as it hangs to the right of the main arm. So the camera when it's facing forward and all the way inward down of the arm, always not level and tilted to the right Align the tripod on which the crane is mounted to the small Unfortunately, once you pan and pan in any direction, the angle degrades in one direction or another. The obvious solution would be to mount an adjustable head on a mount, which I did. However, I still have to buy a tripod head so that I can quickly take pictures from crane to tripod without having to screw everything back and forth every time the support is changed. In fact, there shouldn't be any bends at all. Also a good product.

Pros
  • Quickly attaches to a standard 1/4" x 20 thread tripod head (tripod not included) or to a sturdy stand with our pole mount (stand and pole mount not included)
Cons
  • I will add
