  1. Balance issue

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Wiring in the Central Post (Tube) is not the issue.

    Your problem is this:  Main Gimbal [Bearing] is NOT Centered.  This is either set at the Factory, or you will need to figure it out yourself, however, the only want to resolve this is to have someone with the technical expertise, as well as the required tools to ALIGN the [Bearing] with the Bearing Housing and the Central Post...  Basically, the Gimbal is NOT Symmetrical on the Post.

    Call me at 1-781-585-7900 if you need further explanation.   Thanks!

     

  3. Steadicam + Ronin gimbal ? Thoughts

    Also, remember; as a Camera Operator - which do you have 'control' over? 

    Most camera operators want to be able to control the camera.

    With the DJI Ronin the camera operator is forfeiting 'control', in place of that is the DJI Software that is truly controlling the camera movements (pan/tilt)   

    Also, there is a big difference aesthetically.  Traditional Stabilizers (i.e Steadicam) have a much more organic, smooth look. (think meridian response); compared to the "robotic, security camera, drone" aesthetic.
