still wondering: That is, can you point a remote control at this tripod, to make the tripod tilt up and pan from left to right?

Does not pan or tilt with remote. It acts like a partial camera remote only. James

yes you can as long it (the tripod) is wrapped around a pole or object. the camera cannot be vertical with the tripod standing.

There is a small bracket with a pivot ball connecting to the back of the camera unit. It has a small range of motion, so you can tip the camera a little in any direction. However, you can't point it too far to the side or down. Depending on how far you want to rotate it, you might need to mount the bracket to something that is already pointed more in the direction you want. It worked OK for me, although I wished I could have rotated the camera a little farther.

Good news! Yes, you can do it. Skill calls it the manual mode. Just press the mode button 3 times until indicator LED turns red instead of green. And now you could tilt it at whichever angle desirable.

I dont think there is a way....to be honest, I never used the tripod other then to set it up fro the first time. You would be better with a Gorilla pod or something comparable for phone photography

Yes, you can. I have my camera mounted on ceiling and still pan/tilt without problems.

Yes you can set it up on a tripod! I don't think a tripod would really be nessisary, the shutter speed is pretty quick. (Any standard tripod would fit the camera)

Yes, you can. Of course there is a limit to the swivel, but placing the camera correctly, you ought not to have a problem in pointing it to a specific area.

Yes it can be hung upside down.I prefer them that way. Depending on which app you have to view it. I like Mr. Cho 's app. Go to manage camera .then a long press on the camera of your choice with a long press.you will get edit camera. Then to more options (lower left) then you will find rotate and go 180. You may need to invert pan and tilt directions also. All in that window. Note there are three areas to set camera utilities. May take you awhile to find them . but they are there just stay with it . good camera and good app.

Yes it can tilt up and down. For side to side you would just rotate the monopod.

Tara, yes the tripod can be used in either way, just by setting the plate that screws to the camera to either horizontal or vertical plane.This is the best inexpensive tripod I have ever owned- and I have had 4 or 5 before this one. It is sturdy, well constructed I have used it outdoors in moderate wind conditions (deer hunting) and it is heavy enough to stand up well in those circumstances. (It is better in those conditions if you don't extend it to its tallest. I used it while siltting on a chair.)

not really, i mean you could if you taped it there or something but if you turn the camera sideways the picture will be sideways. of course there are apps that you can fix that with but no generally it isnt going to work very well

You can pull the pole out of the tripod legs and it is pointed. Hope this helps.

No you don't have to be pointing directly to the camera to operate the remote. It works very well from any angle.

Yes it can . There's a wheel behind the camera that'll let you adjust it up or down.

yes you could, it would tilt down about 55 degrees, and rotate 90 degrees. But it has to be mount on ceiling/top instead of on a wall where some dome camera could do.

As others have noted, it can't done. If you want it pointed in another direction you have to turn the whoe unit. All depends on whether you have the space to do that.
