The published reviews are not encouraging. Try to find some vids.

Then what gimbal do you suggest for the cx 20?

Do you currently own a Xiaomi?

Nope but it seems like the best budget camera out there

Check out the runcam

This is direct mounted, so you may see a little jello lines and they are screen shots I took from my videohaha.

At first i wanted to buy the runcam or the mobius but you have to do many modifications to the gimbal. Thats why i was thinking buying a gopro styled camera. So back to the quad, which gimbal should i buy for the cx 20?

Actually I used a Runcam on a GoPro gimbal, and there are gopro form factor cases for the Mobius.


I also did this (I have the same gimbal and can provide you the file so you just have to upload it)

Not really, there are many choices these days. The Xiaomi often comes badly focused. And it looks like a toy.

Well unfortunately the Xiaomi's odd size takes some modding to get it to fit GoPro things.
Here's an option, plugged right into a CX 20. The Amkov he uses fits well in almost all GoPro things, I imagine the Xiaomi may be made to work with that gimbal.
