This unit has been extremely reliable and in terms of durability... I carry this in and out of very harsh environments and I have not had any issues. Now I do put it in a reenforced case to move it point a to point b fearing that I could cause damage, but in some instances I have to toss it into my backpack and run. No issues to date and I've been using this black bolt pan head in freezing temps to blistering hot temps. Reliable and I definitely would purchase another one. **Q: In 360 mode does it continuously go round and round or does it reverse it's path?** A: There are 3 different modes to turn the panning head1) Continuous Rotation2) Swing move (Left 60 + Right 60 degree = Total 120 degree swing)3) Stop-n-Go (Rotate 90 degree and Stop and rotate 90 degree and stop...so on)You can rotate the head in 3 different mode, both in clockwise & counter clockwise direction. **Q: The ads say that it's a 3/4" shaft... not a 1/4" standard tripod fitting? Is it a 3/4 inch or 1/4 inch?** A: Thanks for email. It's typo. 1/4" tripod pin is installed. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product *by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2017* This inexpensive motor panning head does exactly what I want it to do.I will primarily use it with my iPhone and this tripod mount adapter.Β  Vastar Universal Smartphone Tripod Adapter Cell Phone Holder Mount Adapter, Fits iPhone, Samsung, and all Phones, Rotates Vertical and Horizontal, Adjustable Clamp I've tested it and it works great for panning videos on the Normal speed (1080p 60fps) and for panoramas using the iPhone's Pano camera function. It's great for making the automatic panoramas but you'll need a tripod adapter like the one above that allows the phone to be mounted vertically (portrait mode). Panos on the iPhone require this vertical orientation.Although some reviews have mentioned that the panning head introduces too much noise into panning videos, I noticed very little. However, having the iPhone mounted in a tripod adapter that has rubber padding in the phone holder might have something to do with reducing noise. Mounting something like a point-and-shoot or GoPro directly to the panning head would probably introduce more noise. In this case, the camera is also closer to the panning head than when using the iPhone adapter.For my purposes, the small amount of noise from the head won't make any difference since I'll probably dub music to most of my videos. It doesn't make much sense to me to be recording audio while panning, with the microphone continuously changing direction and the probability that the audio source (people's voices) are coming from all directions. But I intend to experiment with that.For timelapse, it would be nice to have a couple of faster and slower speeds but I don't want to have to spend considerably more money to get it.UPDATE: After mounting a GoPro Hero 5 Session directly to the panning head (with tripod adapter), the audio while panning video was VERY noisy. Huge difference between that and the iPhone I tested earlier. My suggestion is that if you want to mount a camera and not experience the noise, you MUST get the camera up off the panning head as much as possible. For a GoPro or other small camera, something like the GoPro Handler or Gooseneck should work -- anything with a male and female tripod screw and of a few inches in length. Or record your audio separately and mix in post. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Works well, a few improvement suggestions though. *by A***M on Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2016* Overall I'm happy and it worked well but gave it a 4 for the following improvement areas:1. The 'on' button sticks out so it accidentally turns on while in your backpack - this has caused the charge to run out while in transit.2. It would be nice to know how charged it is - a red led illuminates when charging but I never knew if it took 20 minutes or 10 hours to charge. It would be great if it went green when fully charged and went yellow when running out or something.3. I wish the time lapse setting was even slower. I think an extra slow setting would be nice to allow a quarter turn in an hour or something. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite gadget! *by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2016* This is my new favorite gadget! I've evaluated several GoPro motorized time lapse heads and decided on this one based on its versatility and price. I've shot several time lapse videos with this since purchasing it and have to say that I'm very pleased with all the options it offers. Make no mistake your DSLR is not intended to be paired with this product. It is however optimal for your smart phone or action cam. The head mounts to the quarter inch accessories of your go Pro and has a female quarter-inch receiver that you can easily mount to your tripod. It doesn't come with instructions but the diagrams on the face of the unit are fairly intuitive.it features three variable speeds including time lapse which when paired with my go Pro yielded some very impressive results. It's reasonably priced and has the benefit Of being powered by internal batteries that you can recharge it with a micro USB cable which is provided. All in all, fun in handy gadget to add to your repertoire --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/21742311-motorized-panning-head-gopro-action-cam-timelapse-variable-speeds-built](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/21742311-motorized-panning-head-gopro-action-cam-timelapse-variable-speeds-built) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
