Unfolding and Folding

Install Your Phone

  1. Following the direction indicated by the icon on the right side of the Magnetic Phone Clamp,stretch the Magnetic Phone Clamp around the middle of your phone.
  2. Align and attach the magnetic notch on the back of the Magnetic Phone Clamp to the raised bump on the gimbal’s magnetic surface.
  3. Hold the transparent battery shell and pull the handle downwards in the direction indicated by the arrow to unfold it. The gimbal will automatically power on, and the indicator lights will turn on.

Notes:

  • Ensure the direction of your phone’s camera is the same as the direction marked on the Magnetic Phone Clamp.
  • Position the Magnetic Phone Clamp in the middle of your phone so that both sides stretch the same distance and fit around the phone.
  • Attach your phone to the Magnetic Phone Clamp first, then attach and unfold Flow Pro.
  • Each time Flow Pro is powered on, it automatically detects if a phone is mounted within 30 seconds. If no phone is detected, it automatically enters standby mode.

Built-In Selfie Stick and Tripod
Flow Pro comes with a built-in selfie stick and tripod. The selfie stick has five sections and extends to a maximum length of 215mm. The angle adjustment range is 0-90°.

Once fully extended and unfolded, the tripod can be used to temporarily place Flow Pro on a windless, stable and flat surface. It should not be placed on sand.

Notes:

  • When pulling out the tripod, it is recommended to pull out all legs together, not individually.
  • When storing the tripod, you need to fold it first, then slowly push it back in with the palm of your hand.
  • If you have the selfie stick extended for a long time, it’s recommended to attach an external tripod through the 1/4″ screw hole at the bottom of Flow Pro’s handle for more support and use in a wider range of scenarios.
  • Use the silicone grip cover to make the handle more comfortable to hold and protect it.

Folding Up

  1. Fold the handle up and Flow Pro will automatically shut down.
  2. Take off the Magnetic Phone Clamp, then remove it from your phone.

Find Your Serial Number

The serial number is a unique code that can be used to quickly identify your gimbal. You can find the serial number in the following ways:

Product Box
The serial number is on the back of the original product box.

Transparent Battery Shell
The serial number can be viewed inside the transparent battery shell.

Activation

You need to activate Flow Pro in the Insta360 app before using it for the first time.

Steps:

  1. Download the Insta360 app. Alternatively, search “Insta360” in any major app store or scan the QR code on the box.
  2. Enable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on your phone.
  3. Open the Insta360 app. The pop-up window should automatically display “Discover New Devices”. Select your device (the name is “Flow Pro **” by default, where ** is the last six digits of the serial number, which can be found on the product box or the transparent battery shell),and then follow the on-screen instructions to connect and activate your gimbal.
  4. The app will prompt you to update the firmware if a new version is available. Please follow the on-screen prompts to update Flow Pro’s firmware. Do not power off Flow Pro or exit the Insta360 app during the update.
  5. After successful activation, download the analysis resources to shoot with the Insta360 app.

One-Tap Pairing Via NFC

Gimbal Modes

When Flow Pro is turned on, you can choose from five gimbal modes: Auto (on by default), Follow,Pan Follow, FPV and Lock Mode.

  • Auto Mode (AUTO):
    Beginner-friendly mode that automatically adjusts tilt and pan axis settings based on your movements (e.g., running vs stationary), making it easier to shoot stable videos.

  • Follow Mode (F):
    The tilt and pan axes follow the movement of the handle, and tracking is more sensitive than Auto
    Mode. It is suitable for vertical movements from a view to a subject and tilt and pan movements.

  • Pan Follow Mode (PF):
    The pan axis follows the movement of the handle while the tilt and roll axes are locked. It is suitable for shooting horizontally or around a subject with a locked horizon.

  • FPV Mode (FPV):
    The gimbal can rotate freely to follow the movements of the handle in any direction, making it suitable for a wider range of creative shots. Turn the Zoom Wheel to control the roll axis and spin the phone.

  • Lock Mode (L):
    Press and hold the Trigger Button to lock all three axes, great for follow shots and hyperlapses.
    Release the Trigger Button to exit Lock Mode.
    The phone screen does not follow the rotation of the gimbal handle and is locked. It is suitable for follow shots, long-distance movements or shots that need to keep a subject centered for a long time.
    In this mode, the three-axis motors are locked, and the mobile phone remains unchanged in its movement.
    Switch on Active Plus Mode for fast-moving scenes. It provides a faster response speed in any of the four gimbal modes on the touch panel.
    Press the Trigger Button once, then immediately press it again and hold to enable Active Plus. The indicator lights blink in the current gimbal mode. Release the Trigger Button again to exit.

Gimbal Grips

Flow Pro has the following five grip positions:
