Ulanzi Selfie Stick VL03 with 1/4" Thread combines a Magic Arm–style adjustable mount and a standard 1/4" threaded connector to attach phones, compact cameras or action cameras. The stick serves as a handheld selfie stick and a compact mounting arm that can be positioned for stable recording, vlogging, cycling or motorbike use. Its threaded interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of accessories that accept a 1/4" screw.
Advantages
The VL03 integrates a flexible, articulated clamp similar to a Magic Arm with a conventional 1/4" threaded end, providing both multi-angle adjustment and secure mechanical attachment. Its compact form factor makes it convenient for travel and outdoor use while allowing quick changes between handheld operation and fixed mounting. The product supports common devices used for personal video capture and is designed for straightforward, tool-free adjustments.
Suitable for
- Vlogging and handheld self-recording with phones, compact cameras or action cams
- Mounting on bicycles, motorcycles or other frames where a compact adjustable arm is needed
- Stabilizing small cameras or accessories that use a 1/4" threaded connector
- Quick setup for social media recording, tutorials or casual videography
When it may not be suitable
The VL03 is intended for lightweight devices such as phones, compact cameras and action cameras. It is not designed to bear the weight of larger DSLRs or heavy lenses and should not be used where high-load stabilization is required. For professional cinematography or heavy rig setups, a dedicated heavy-duty arm or tripod is more appropriate.

How to use

Use the stick as a handheld extension for self-recording or clamp or fasten it to a compatible frame or bracket on a bicycle or motorbike for a fixed position. Check stability and tighten connections before recording to avoid movement or slipping.
What to consider before purchase
- Check the weight of your camera or phone with its case and accessories to ensure it is within the stick’s practical load capacity
- Confirm that your device or phone holder uses a 1/4" threaded connection or that you have the correct adapter
- Consider whether you need a heavier-duty arm or tripod for larger cameras or demanding stabilization
Usage recommendations
For safer mounting, use the VL03 with lightweight devices and verify all joints and the 1/4" connection are tightened before movement. When using on bikes or motorbikes, secure the stick to stable points and avoid high-vibration locations to minimize camera shake and ensure consistent framing.
