Insta360 Bullet Time Cord for ONE X2, ONE R

I(m not impressed. Not worth the money and not very functional. I dont even like the features.

If you want to do the “bullet time” videos using the Insta360 camera, get this accessory. Cool effects, attaches securely, fits into the pocket easily. Much less fiddly than the bullet time selfie stick.

You really gotta put some force for it to spin nice around u which destroys the quality of the video. Just stick with using the tripod grip. Works so much better and u can control the speed and height of the camera. Dont waste your money on this

So far so good. Wish it would lock in place, or do I? Nice to practice and catch and get some great bullet time shots.

I used this a few times and it did what it was supposed too. it is fun and gadget like, the x3 camera is amazing. this bullet time effect is something I wouldnt use a whole lot but again it is fun. there is no information at all with the product, online or anywhere about that little d-ring screw thing on the other end of the unit. I found out that one side is a sticker you can take off and screw on a selfie stick or something to that but again no information at all anywhere about this feature. Odd.

The bullet cord come handy it is small and fit in my pocket and is easy to use

This is ultimately just a string on a bolt with threads that match a normal tripod mount. If you wanted to DIY, you could easily make your own and just deal with wrapping up the string each time. (Similarly to how the string monopod works using string and a washer and a bolt.) BUT… this is cheap enough you should just get one to add to your collection of X2 toys. Even if you don’t plan to use bullet time, having one means you find yourself using it because you have it with up you. It’s just a nicely packaged way to swing the camera around on the end of a string. Since it is designed specifically for this purpose, I hope it is ridged and strong enough to not let the camera fly off the end and get broken ;) Search YouTube and you will find folks using these in many interesting ways. My favorite was someone who clipped it to their ceiling and let it spin around, circling them at a desk. It gave an impossible shot of a camera spinning around someone at the desk, traveling between the person and their computer screen. Truly a shot that no one would have been able to figure out a decade ago before these cameras existed. (And, actually, probably still in that category to anyone who is unfamiliar with 360 video.) Highly recommend.

Works great. Tried it at the beach this weekend. Easy to attach and feels very secure (after the initial moment of terror the first time you try it). Nabbed some cool video and slipped easily into my pocket when not using it.

I love that I can carry this wherever I need to go.

The way the product is marketed, and the remote is designed it make it appear that this fob has a button to trigger the camera. It is actually just a retractable cord with a nice looking metal case. There is no button to trigger the camera When attempting the bullet time movements with the Insta360 camera you still have to manually trigger the recording on the camera body, and then swing. The same thing can be done with some string, and 1/4-20 bolt. Granted this product would look much nicer, but my solution is 1/20th the cost.
