How do I balance the Flycam Nano

Hey everyone, I hope someone can help me out. I bought the Flycam Nano about a week ago, and have been working on it almost every night since trying to get it balanced. Now, CLEARLY, I'm an idiot, because I have watched every video you guys have posted and read every article I can find, and this darn thing is making me nuts. I can get the thing to be balanced, but as soon as I do any movement, not only does it not STAY balanced, but then I can't even reset it and be balanced again. I made a little video last night showing what I'm talking about, and before you watch it, let me just say that this is the BEST I have EVER been able to get the thing to balance. I know that I say in the video that I have no pendulum effect, and now that I watch it, I see that there IS still a bit on one, but again, this is the BEST I've been able to do. I REALLY think that my issue has something to do with the problem I talk about at 4:11, with the gimbal.

Ok, so you aren't an idiot...lol.....been there man......took me a year to realize how i could set the white balance on the t2i. Anyways i have an interesting video for you that i hope helps.......but keep me updated on your eventual opinion on the flycam as it's something i'm thinking of getting.

Anyways here's the vid, he's a lil boring but hey so is george lucas...lol.........but just a last note......you are hilarious in the video, you should do a follow up........and just to reiterate, you aren't an idiot....lol.
