Insta360 2-in-1 Invisible Selfie Stick and Tripod: Aluminum Alloy, Camera Mounts

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Insta360 2-in-1 Invisible Selfie Stick and Tripod: Aluminum Alloy, Camera Mounts. It’s a common point of confusion because the Insta360 2-in-1 uses a "friction-fit" design rather than a twist-lock or a button. If it’s brand new, the tension can feel quite stiff, making it seem like it's locked. Here is the trick to opening it without feeling like you're going to break it: 1. The "Tug" Method (Extending the Stick) Unlike some older selfie sticks that require a twist to unlock, this one is telescopic. Hold the base: Firmly grip the handle (where the tripod legs are folded). Pull the top: Grab the mounting point (where the camera screws on) and pull straight up with a firm, steady tug. Segment by segment: It will pull out in stages. You can stop at any length; the friction will hold it in place. 2. Opening the Tripod Legs If you are trying to open the bottom to use it as a tripod: Look at the very bottom of the handle. You will see three seams. Pull the legs outward from the bottom. Note: There is no locking switch. Once the legs are fully extended, push down on the center column to ensure it’s stable on a flat surface. Pro-Tips for "Invisible" Use Since you're using an Insta360, keep these two things in mind so the stick actually stays "invisible" in your footage: Keep it Straight: Ensure the stick is perfectly aligned with the base of the camera. If it's tilted even slightly at the mounting point, the stitching software won't be able to "erase" it. Don't use a Phone Mount: If you attach a bulky phone clamp to the top, it will likely show up in your 360° shots. It’s designed specifically for the slim profile of the X3, X4, or ONE RS cameras.
