As the topic states,
Purchased both the car mount and bike mount from DJI to be used with my osmo mobile (iPhone 7 plus)
creates unusable footage.
Anyone else have this issue? perhaps other phones provide better results?

any advice would be great.

Thx.

With iPhone 7 Plus you have to turn off OIS. I think Filmic Pro might do this if it's not in the native camera settings?

This doesn't change anything. Newer iPhones have a physical, built in image stabilization that can't be disabled.

To the OP, what is unusable about your footage?

I guess I just lucked out with my low end, non-OIS  iPhone SE in this case then...

It's unuseable because the footage is very shaky and blurred.

how are you countering the wind, If I hold mine out of the car window the wind overcomes the motors ability to hold the phone steady at anything over 35

Did you put it in sport mode? I posted a video not to long ago of me holding my osmo in sport mode while driving an atv. I wasnt driving at high speeds (maybe 15mph) but it was nice footage.
