DJI RSC 2 Gimbal Review, Tutorial, Set-Up, & How-To Use

[@Jason_Hermann]

Hello and thank you for checking out my video! In order for the Sony A7C to talk to the gimbal you need to enable PC Remote in the camera menu system here: MENU → (Network) → [Smartphone Connect] → [Smartphone Connection] → [Off] MENU → (Network) → [Transfer/Remote] → [PC Remote Function] → [PC Remote] → [On]

[@jacktaylor5040]

Please help! My A7C is in place on my rsc2 but the record button will not work nor will the focus wheel! I’m sure I’ve done what you’ve said too

[@flyboystelevision]

[@jonahdion1423]

I... Genuinely don't know if I have ever seen a better tutorial than this, on any topic ever

[@canines]

Perfectly said, I could not agree more

[@figfate]

This is by far the best video on how to setup this gimbal, especially for a beginner. I appreciate all the details and what I most appreciate is the why. Understanding why I’m doing something really makes it sink in more for me. Thank you for putting this together. I have saved it as a reference as I get used to how to use this thing.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Awesome, thank you!

[@davejones795]

You are a life saver. Great breakdown of a challenging task when you are a new user. DJI should hire you. Thx

[@Jason_Hermann]

Wow, thanks Dave :) Jay

[@tylerfayosephotography]

Agreed!!!

[@jemimastubbs6559]

Absolutely!

[@91mattmac]

Agreed! When I pulled this out of the box I was like "oh dear, what I get myself into" after watching this though, all doubts have been put aside.

[@garryfield2628]

Agree ….. top tutorial for beginners!

[@JaredManders-np8yk]

One of the most thorough tutorials I have seen. excellent!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@420EXHAUST]

HANDS DOWN! THE BEST DJI RSC 2 VIDEO I'VE SEEN! GREAT JOB!!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Thanks 👍

[@mcnabbmark]

Beyond any step by step I've watched, this was SO professional, and I am very grateful for your efficient level of detail and close ups of every stage!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Thanks :)

[@arielvue704]

WATCH THIS!!! I purchased my DJI RSC 2 today and I watched this video today too - I can walk away comfortably knowing how to assemble, calibrate, and manipulate modes from this video. Thank you, Jason! Proficiency will come with time/practice, but this video is where any new user needs to start. I will definitely mark this video to reference again.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad it helped you out and thanks for the very kind words Ariel :)

[@wildflower8028]

This was the BEST tutorial I’ve seen for setting up a gimbal. I am a new gimbal user and didn’t have a clue what to do. I appreciate you going above and beyond for us “beginners.” You are appreciated! Thank you.

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're very welcome!

[@briantium]

This has the best explanation I've seen as to the "why" when it comes to balancing the camera, in particular the emphasis on lining up the mass of the rig with each motor. I've been using a gimbal for a while now and basically winged it each time, dealing with the frustration, but this clarified things to a degree that connects everything for me. Great job!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Thank you Brian :)

[@Leprutz]

I had to rebalance the gimbal 3 times, first the camera alone. Then I forgot that I had the raveneye, so i had to balance with it and then I remembered to focusmotor had to be balanced again. One good thing though at the third time I had no problem balancing it and the ronin app said everything works fine. So I am quite happy in the end. But yeah when someone has no clue it can be daunting.

[@Spplaart]

As a complete and utter novice to setting up a gimbal, your help is greatly greatly appreciated. Thank you so much

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're very welcome!

[@philipsmith228]

Idk about anyone else but I’m patiently waiting for the part two video because this video was great.

[@CashWorldRecords]

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I was discouraged until I watched your tutorial. I was like there is no way this gimbal can be this hard to use but now since your video I feel confident that I will be able to master it. again thank you

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're very welcome!

[@austinlambdin]

Dude I just spent like an hour and a half trying to watch other videos and figure out the calibration for this thing, and watching your video helped me so quickly and made me understand the process way easier. You’re a freaking life saver, my guy

[@Jason_Hermann]

I'm really glad it helped, and when I was learning how to use the gimbal I had the same problem trying to find a tutorial that worked for me at that time. So After I finally figured it all out I decided to create this for all those in need like I was about 2 years ago :) Thank you for the very kind words Austin and all the best, Jay

[@madantheboss]

best ever demonstration in the whole wide internet!!!!! Great job!!!

[@Daniel-te8xh]

Just bought the gimbal yesterday and watched your whole vid today! Saved me hours! Thanks a lot. Loved the step by step guide!

[@proRez2997]

Thanks! This really helped me.

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're welcome and thank you!

[@oliviapemberton-young8622]

I’m only half way through the video but just had to jump on and say how helpful this is and so well explained. Just did the balance test and it was excellent thanks to you. Feel very proud!!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@larryanderson8880]

This is one of the best tutorials, period - covered all aspects of the gimbal. Setup, balance, menu options, dials and example usage including footage. Thanks!

[@Djr481]

Thanks for a beginner video. you explained everything with ease and showed everything in great detail with out going into much detail great job can't wait for part 2

[@bharathkks7241]

This is a gem. Thanks a ton for keeping it detailed in favor of beginners like me, it was immensely helpful.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad it was helpful and your very welcome ;)

[@louisa4998]

Big shout out to Jason. Thank you very much for putting so much effort in that detailed video! this is the only video that helped me to understand the gimbal and its workflow. i would be delighted if you uploaded part 2. As part 1 was already extremely helpful! thank you so much.

[@Maigeru]

Thank you for being so thorough and keeping beginners in mind. When you said how by the end of this we would know how to fully setup and use our gimble, it was so reassuring lol.

[@Jason_Hermann]

You are so welcome and I was really hoping saying that would ease your tensions ;) Trying to figure out one of these things from scratch is really a daunting proposition... Thank you very much for the kind words and all the best, Jay

[@andrewgerhards8963]

Just another person chiming in to say that I followed your video to set up and get the rig going, worked exactly as you showed. Thanks!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Thank you very much for taking the time to comment Andrew :) I greatly appreciate it, Jay

[@thediegomgarcia]

Awesome to hear Harley, and thank you for the very kind comments :) Jay

[@alohajurek]

Thanks!

[@clairezurek3165]

Thanks for getting me set up with my new rig! You are seriously gifted at breaking it all down. Knowing it was going to be above my technical pay grade, I grabbed my mechanical engineer husband to follow along with your video and really help me understand what you were saying about this new equipment. Thanks to your calm, descriptive approach--I'm feeling good about it and ready to apply it tomorrow at a home editorial shoot. Eeeeeks. (Still photos are my thing so I will predominantly snap those, but I'm secondarily going to attempt making a video of the house as well.) I appreciate you very much. Thank you, Jay. Keep up the awesome work. Best, Claire

[@Jason_Hermann]

Thank you very much Clair for the kind words and you will do fine!! The gimbal takes a decent amount of practice to get used to, so just be patient and enjoy the buttery smooth footage you are going to get!! All the best, Jay

[@brand23media]

I have to say this was the best set-up/how-to video for a gimbal beginner. Your thorough step by step was fantastic and I know you saved me and many others a lot of time and frustration! Well done!

[@h_sarraf]

What an amazing, thorough, clear and perfectly paced and produced tutorial. It was so darn stressful and intimidating until I found your video. Thanks heaps.

[@benosatv]

I can watch you teach all day without falling asleep. Thank you so much 😊

[@jameswarrenpersonal4720]

Thank you, You are the first person that has explained how to setup a gimbal correctly. I am not going to lie, I thought this was going to be a painful tutorial but I actually really enjoyed it. Keep up the good work.

Glad it was helpful!

[@shannonhudson]

I really appreciate you going through step by step! I got my RSC2 a few months back and struggled getting to know all of the functions. Very helpful!

[@iansquirephotographyandvid1576]

Best tutorial I’ve found for this gimbal! Well done. I’ve just bought one to film with a Nikon Z6 but the record button on the gimbal grip only works intermittently. Any ideas ?

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad it helped and unfortunately I do not have any idea why it would be intermittent like that.Perhaps the cable? Sorry Ian, Jay

[@exxocial]

I loved your tutorial. I could not figure how to even mount this thing with the manual. I almost gave up. This is better than the manual. The pacing and angles were great. I was truly a beginner.

[@luism.2050]

Very thorough as usual! Love your content! You showed quite a few “hidden” functions that can be triggered by various buttons combinations 👍 1 mode I think DJI should add by default is the tilt follow.

[@otann]

Thanks!

[@JinsVerelst]

Absolutely amazing tutorial/review! Just got mine and by following this I was able to understand all the different modes so easily in such a short amount of time. Def subbed. Can't wait to check out the next one on the app features.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Great to hear, thank you :)

[@nuel__________]

This is the best tutorial for the RSC2 and also very good video to anyone who never used a gimbal before.

[@Miki-mw2by]

I actually like the RSC2 over the RS2. Thumbs up if you agree!

[@justinsiebert6952]

Can you explain why? I have the rsc-2 combo, but can get the rs2 non combo for the same price. Was considering returning to upgrade

[@user-dh5fp4gw1b]

@@justinsiebert6952 do it dude, the folding on sc2 is a joke

[@icedalpha5794]

This was a great tutorial. No fancy transitions, no fancy video cuts, just a guy, a camera and a great explanation of the device. I Needed This. I thank you. This was very beginner oriented and that's something most content creators don't do in as much detail as he did. Anyway, great video.... oh, the kids stole the show lol. Thanks again.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad you enjoyed it Troy and thanks for the kind words ;) Jay

Don't you hate it when you've balanced it perfectly to find you haven't inserted the battery!

[@energytrainingsolutions7785]

Hallalujah! and thank you Jason. After the frustration of plowing through the manual and the several useless set-up-this-gimbal-in-3-minutes videos I found yours. Thanks for slowing it down, going through EVERY step (and substep) being so clear and talking to us in a way that is accessible. Too many guys want to sound like experts and the way you present puts us at ease and let's us know that there are no stupid questions. Loved the footage of your kids, they are naturals!
