Decent deal and comparable to the recent B&Hphoto front page deal. But I think the B&H is maybe a bit more useful from the gimbal perspective. This does come with a nice camera backpack while the b&h one came with a carry bag which looks like only for the gimbal. This comes with a 64GB sdcard while the B&h came with an extra mini-tripod. I think the extra tripod is better for the gimbal handling. The cleaning kit is pretty useless IMO. B&h have their Payboo card for those in high tax state, while Adorama have their 5% Cashback card but if you have discover + PayPal, you can get that 5% easily. But Adorama might have Cashback portal which might bring this close to 6% Cashback.

EDIT:
This might be a better deal, but might be a mistake on the site. It looks like the transmitter 2.0 is added to the deal in cart but not explicitly stated in the item page. Not as good as the 3.0, but if you guys have a use for the 2.0 transmitter, this might be a better deal.

I'm having a tough time finding info on the differences between the 2.0 and 3.0 myself. I did pick this up but want to know whether I should turn around and sell the transmitter. I can't even find a 3.0 anywhere to do a comparison or read up on it.

From my limited research, the 3.0 is the AI name change version and is built for the weebill 2. But you can still use the 2.0 with the weebill 2 but with limited options. The 3.0 streams video to the gimbal's display. Also it support up to 1080p 60fps vs 30fps of the 2.0. Both connects to the phone via the app so you can control it and see what the camera sees. All in all, I think this is worth it. But since I already got the b&h, I have to pay return postage which might be too much of a hassle and might negate the cost advatage just to get the transmitter for free.

Hmm, if this won't stream to the display on the gimbal I think I'll sell it off immediately and pick up the AI. I couldn't find anywhere that made it seem like it wouldn't stream it to the gimbal screen.

Edit: Part of me is hoping that Adorama just hasn't updated their listing yet since they have the price of the 2 the same as the MSRP of the A(3.0). Adorama only has one listing for the transmitter and they have it on backorder. And just a little more evidence, the 2.0 is only retailing at like $129 even from Zhiyun directly. So, fingers crossed.

You might get the 3.0, but I doubt it. Looking at the item description, it looks like it states 2.0 bonus. Also as you mentioned they are clearing the 2.0 out from the Zhiyun website, so I suspect they are shipping you those direct from the Zhiyun warehouse. Sure it might be backordered, but I suspect Zhiyun will ship every last one before giving you the new 3.0 (AI) version. But definitely keep us posted and will be rooting for you to get the 3.0. That would make it a slick deal!

Let me dream!

in any case I don't see much use for it and will sell it off if it comes in as the 2(which is likely)

So, is the compatibility list on their website complete? I didn't see r7 and I kinda have it in sight. Will it work completely with this gimbal?

Extrapolate based on weight.

And that goes for all the new ones right? Because I don't see some older models that are within weight capacity as compatibles or they're listed with limited functionality.

You'd be surprised. I have that exact same cleaning kit in my bag and specifically use the blower on every shoot. It's all basic, but effectively gets the job done and knock on wood.. No scratches or issues yet after a few years.

I don't see the transmitter added in cart though. They fixed it I suppose ?

If you look at the bundle item when you check your cart, it will list all the items. I still see it on the mobile site. I have not checked the desktop site.

You can see it in the listed items in the cart. See attached image.

Original reply. This was wrong.
On the desktop it doesn't show immediately, but you will see that there are 2 items in your cart, even though it only lists the bundle. Once you go through the process you will see the transmitter listed. After purchase it will show as back ordered.

This doesn't work with this gimbal, is that right? So confused with all of the model names.
