Tilta Advanced Ring Grip for DJI RS 3 Pro PERFECT Gimbal Setup with Easy Rig Minimax

[@MateoToro]

Who prefers one handed gimbals? To me this is the deff the easiest way to get that MōVI Pro setup in a budget

[@ethanadams5172]

Yeah, one handed is fine, but I sure do love my ring grip haha. Definitely worth the investment if you want to do filmaking fulltime!

[@StaticJaFilms]

This video was well put together, well done.

[@MateoToro]

Appreciate it !

[@twesttv]

Great job. That big brick battery looks like it weighs a ton just by itself. I have been impressed so far by the battery life of the RS3 handle grip.

[@joeforca5686]

My Tilta just came in today and I soon realized that it does not come with batteries. Which rechargeable 18650 batteries would you recommend I use?

[@SEYEIGHTS]

Need this setup someday 🔥🔥🔥

[@Coinsandtokenz]

Literally just got the same set up. This vid is perfect , thx for the tips !

[@MateoToro]

glad it helped! enjoy the setup!

[@MondragonCartel]

I have this rig, setup almost the same exact way and while its very versatile it gets a lot of shakes. I hope tilta makes a new ring soon with better build.

[@MateoToro]

i dont know maybe yours is faulty your gimbal isnt perfectly balance ive been using it for almost 2 years and get butter smooth footage

[@SRPhotographyVideo]

Which weight does your whole setup has? I want to buy the easyrig minimax aswell, but my rig weight is 500g over the max weight of 7kg. Do you think this would be a Problem?

[@MateoToro]

Depends on the rig I’m Flying

[@kennethpalm4782]

Can you explain the setup with v-mount powering both the gimbal and the monitor. I can only see on your video that you connect shinobi 7 with a atomosX, from there a 5.5 to d-tap into the power supply module for the ring, but what are you doing to connect to the v-mount battery? There is only one d-tap on the power module right?

[@MateoToro]

there is a tilta v mount module you need to buy so it powers everything its linked in the description

[@hzzmozz]

Rad Setup. Im in the process of building a similar rig for my Komodo X I have seen some reviews of the Tilta advanced grip not being compatible with the RS3 Pro, you dont seem to have an issue?? Are they fully compatible when the batteries are operational?

[@MateoToro]

i havent had any issues running my rs3 pro with the tilta ring been using it for a bit over a year now. i mainly use it with the v mount power

[@jacksonrezab]

Bro, I have a question, I just set up my rig and im using the titla supply module, the atomos battery eliminator and a similar d tap with a smallrig 99 and the monitor will not turn on. Any trouble shooting you had to do/ any idea why my set up is not working?

[@MateoToro]

I’ve never had that happen. Maybe make sure the titla supply module is attached correctly to the electronic pins.

[@drewmatic314]

Brother please tell me the name of the quick realease and the thing under it that actually holds the monitor PLEASE

[@MateoToro]

I literally say what it is in the video if you watched it’s linked in the description

[@daylight5500]

Hey Mateo, great review. What is the cable from the battery on the bottom feeding? It looks like it is going to your monitor. How come you are not using the breakout box with D-tap and USB? Cheers!

[@MateoToro]

If you finished watching the video you would see I am using the breakout box with d tap

[@daylight5500]

@@MateoToro just wanted to make sure that that cable was not going anywhere else that I may have missed.

[@clifdrew]

How does the Minimax handle the weight of the advanced ring? I'm thinking about picking one up.

[@MateoToro]

Handles it well just obviously you need to stay in the weight range - I’ve now upgraded to the stabil light arm version tho

[@danwhitaker778]

Thanks for making this. I am looking to use this setup with an FX6 how do you think that would work? And 2, how is walking with the Easy Rig and Ring Grip does it cause the camera footage to bob up and down. I am going to have to do a lot tracking and moving while filming for this upcoming project. THANKS!

[@MateoToro]

i mainly use it with the fx3 since i have both and its just a better setup. with the fx6 you just have to mount your monitor on the right upper side since that it is where the ports are for the fx6. walking with the easy rig is nice but i ended up grading my easyrig to the stabil mini max one since its made to remove the up and down wobble

[@eddiecastro2050]

Great video!! I do have a question - if you're using the vmount battery to power the gimbal, can you go without the battery grip on top? Could you remove that piece entirely? Removing that battery grip mount would make this ring a whole lot easier to pack for me.

[@MateoToro]

yeah you don't need the battery grip - it works as a way to hold the gimbal or to attach the easyrig to.

[@eddiecastro2050]

@@MateoToro Preciate your quick response. Picked up the Tilta Vmont plate and Power Supply Module from B&H this morning. As soon as I installed it the Tilta Ring stopped working. I think the Power Supply Module fried the whole ring :(

[@MateoToro]

@@eddiecastro2050 yeah that’s so unfortunate - i haven’t had any issues with mine for over a year . See if b&h can help you could’ve been a faulty v mount plate

[@kennygshoots]

Can you go over how you change the setting for the left handle? The follow focus is only functional on my right side but I would like to pull focus with my left hand so it’s somewhat balanced

[@MateoToro]

Im not sure since I pull focus with my right hand but you can always just switch the handles themselves they’re interchangeable I believe

[@DavidMonostori]

Does the V Mount charge the DJI handle battery when attached like this? Or can you essentially just not have the DJI battery attached at all and it would still work?

[@MateoToro]

both. it keeps the dji battery charged or you can just use it without the dji battery but i keep it on so I can attach my easyrig

[@DavidMonostori]

@@MateoToro Cool. I'm building a very similar setup. Had the basic ring, had to order the V Mount plate for power. Having the DJI handle still attached is not bad for carrying and converting it to traditional gimbal setup so I'll probably keep it on also.

[@RemcovanHolsteijn]

Thanks for the tips, man! Build one with an FX6, but might use an FX3 later on for the purpose you mentioned. One thing I can’t get working with the FX6 so far is the wireless recording. You got that working? If so, I’m curious how. Taking one hand off the grip to press the record button is pretty lame if you ask me

[@MateoToro]

There is a cable by ignite digi sells a cable that allows you to trigger record on your fx6 !

[@RemcovanHolsteijn]

​@@MateoToro Perfect! Any experience using the FX3 with the 70-200 and a follow focus motor? With the FX6 it seems just too unstable for the RS3 Pro. After watching your video I immediately ordered the arm clamp, and it certainly is a gem. Rock solid and super flexible. Thanks bro!

[@MateoToro]

@@RemcovanHolsteijn ive never used follow focus motors on auto focus lenses

[@aabg9019]

hey i have the same rig but I have issues trying to sync one of the handles of the rig is possible to make a video explaining how you do it please :)

[@MateoToro]

Make sure you have the adapter that came with the ring on right

[@yaghmooor]

What is the type of tilta battery؟

[@attackcity]

Thanks for sharing man! I have one question though. The EasyRig camera hook and ball stud that you have attached to the ER quick release and then wrapped around the Ronin handle - is that stable enough? When I turn it I can see how the hook can slip out from under the handle. But maybe the weight of the rig is enough to make sure it stays in place? Have you had any problems? Or do you trust it enough that you could let go with both hands?

[@MateoToro]

Haven’t had any issues - I let go of it all the time when I need a break or in between takes

[@attackcity]

@@MateoToroThank you!

[@attackcity]

@@MateoToroWhat cable did you use for the monitor to keep it from pulling on the gimbal and stressing the motors?

[@cmography]

I see in the notes that you link to a Kong clip. I am trying to find one that would work with this setup and quickly connecting my EasyRig to my Tilta handle. Do you use one like this now?

[@MateoToro]

yeah its pretty common amongst a lot of cinematographers ive been using it for almost two years and it works like new

[@cmography]

@@MateoToro How do you connect it to the top handle of your Tilta ring? I don't understand the connection with the Kong clip.

[@MateoToro]

@@cmography oh sorry for the confusion yeah I don't use the kong clip when I am using the tilta ring but I have it with me when I need to switch from the ring over to just the easyrig with the kong clip onto the top handle of a camera

[@cmography]

@@MateoToro Ahh, got it. I’m trying to find a better solution to this connection with the EasyRig and Tilta Ring. I’m concerned since it’s not a great connection and I’m flying around on a Segway with mine. I’ll figure something out.

[@BrownPassport]

THIS IS GREAT TY

[@MateoToro]

Welcome! Hope it helped !

[@emiled_denmark]

Hey Mateo nice video. How do you connect your left tilta grib too the focus motor?

[@MateoToro]

I hardly ever use the focus motors but the advanced ring comes with a electronic adapter you mount on the rs3 pro on the side of the gimbal that sends a signal to the left handle and then from there you can just connect your DJI focus motor on to the gimbal

[@emiled_denmark]

@@MateoToro hey thank you. I have one adapter that i Connect with the contral handle But the focus handle i do not connect.

[@GoinShoots]

how long does the amount battery last for?

Pay attention. He literally said he ain’t have it die yet 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@GoinShoots]

@@Shotbyayomanifilm Thats funny because thats not really a number... how long was he shooting for?

[@MateoToro]

@@GoinShoots with a 150wh battery i think a little over a 12 hours and most sets are 10 hours so lasts at least a full day , plus if the v mount dies i can still keep using the ring with just the gimbals battery

Hi … the handle of the ronin is using battery while I have a battery on my v mount. Is that correct

[@MateoToro]

Not really sure what you’re asking tbh but if you’re using a v mount battery the ronin grip battery is being charged while it’s on the ring

[@carleksteen2696]

Thank you for your answer it’s exactly what I wanted to know
