Of course I didn't spend much time getting this to work with my Hero 5. I've seen that an additional weight accessory is needed to cover the rear disc, but thought I'd give it a try without. I couldn't balance it properly, it rocked slightly which resulted in more shaking than just holding the Hero 5 with image stabilization active. I ended up sending it back and getting a gimbal instead. I've done a lot of research on gimbals and don't think any of them currently fit the Hero 5 as it weighs significantly more than the Hero 4. The motors are constantly running trying to hold the heavier Hero 5 level which adds noise the audio track. Many users are trying to figure out how to mount it etc. It will probably take companies 6-12 months to design a gimbal specifically for the Hero 5 instead of just trying to modify the Hero 4's gimbal.
