Kling Motion Control 2.6 API
Kling Motion Control 2.6 transfers motion from a reference video onto the character in a reference image. On APIMart it uses model ID kling-v2-6-motion-control with std (720p) and pro (1080p) modes; the output follows the reference video length (3–10 s or 3–30 s) and is billed per second of that video.
