I bought the F38 to release the feet from the base, but I find the base is too smooth and doesn't have any grab so it keeps slipping loose. How did you get yours on solid?
Nice work Pete. I loved your gimbal academy course as well. I loved the concept of Ulanzi f38 quick release system at the bottom of my gimbal while attaching a uurig side handle. I bought. it using the links from your description, but when I attach the side handle, the base plate isn't sitting tight, It is anti twisting and getting loosen all the time. Any tips on how you kept it tight
Hey Peter I bought the side handle and the quick release plate but I have this issue where the handle won't stay tight long and then is loose and wobbles. I've cranked down on the screw as hard as I can and it will stay for a few minutes of shooting and then get's loose again making it useless. Did you use a different screw than what comes with the plate? Seems kinda short.
How does your uurig handle sit in one place? When I want to attach it, it slips on the rubber and turns around. That way it’s never on the left, and I can never trust it. Any tips?
Welp, you had the most comprehensive accessory videos for the RS2 and showed practical applications for how to use the stuff you're demonstrating here. I ordered everything you suggested in this video aside from the smallrig plate, hdmi cable, and clips (which I still might get) and it all lives up to the quality you described in this video. Ulanzi even hooked me up with a cool mini light bar. Thanks for the helpful video, brotha!
Hi, great video!! How do you use the peak design on the RS2? In the previous DJI I could use them and it was very good to be able to let them rest on a strap around my neck. But seeing where you placed them, aren't you scared? It doesn't seem stable.
Great video! I wanted to use your links and did for the clips and DH03, but a few items you only link one choice and don't have amazon links. I was able to find some products on Amazon, such as the Ulanzi R083 Foldable Handle. You should go through them and add amazon links as choices like you have others. I had a credit on my amazon account, thus the reason I need to stay with that for now.
@Peter Makholm thank you Pete for your prompt response. Btw I do have my birthday coming and planning to buy the rs3 / rs3 combo. Could you please suggest Should I buy and customize rs3 like these or go with the combo version? DJI would be a better option?
Curious if you know of a good Arca-Swiss plate. I have a 3 Legged Thing Ray and Airhed Cine head and I need to find a plate that works with both the Airhed Cine AND the RSC2. Problem i'm having is the RSC2 plates slot into the gimbal horizontally while the Airhed Cine takes a vertical orientation.
Any suggestions for an external mic setup to use while filming with a gimbal? I use the DJI RSC2 with a Nikon D7500, and I need my external mic for audio, but the either of my mics mounted on the D7500 makes underslung mode on the gimbal impossible. They are fairly light mics, however the height makes it a problem. I shoot steam locomotives mostly, so using dubbed audio is often not an option as it won't match the visuals, and I haven't found a way yet to mount a mic let alone which mic to use that'll either clear the gimbal in underslung mode, or sit somewhere else on the gimbal other than the on camera.
Hi Everett. I get this question quite often, and will be making a video on the topic. But the best way you can mount a mic is by using a cage and add the mic on the side of the cage. Then you can use the gimbal without the mic interfeering with the movement of the gimbal.
the wider grip won't benefit you, but if you have long shoot days you should consider a ring and and a easyrig. You could also benefit from a monopod. this allows you to easily rest the gimbal between takes.
Thanks for the walkthrough on the RS2 Peter. I also shoot with the S5. I was wondering what your go to wide lens is with the S5/S1H when it's on the RS2. I have the Panasonic 24-70 2.8 and really like it but it's not wide enough sometimes. I purchased the Laowa 10-18 and it's super wide but feel like I"m getting some distorition on it. Thanks.
Have you tried the Tilta Extended Quick Release Baseplate? It's a fixed length and doesn't give as much side clearance as your Smallrig -- but it gives me enough clearance for my BMPCC6K. Since it mounts on the provided RS2 plate, I can also use the micro-adjustment knob.
So whenever I'm thinking about ANYTHING involving a gimbal - I look to you my friend . . . "Mr. Gimbal." Thanks to you I have bought the RSC 2 for my A7s III and now looking for a pro level gimbal to SPECIFICALLY and SOLEY GO with my SMARTPHONE a 12 pro max (since my larger gimbal requirements are taken care of) . I would love to hear your thoughts . . Mr. Gimbal. PS my rig needs to handle around 500 grams. Thank you very much for any consideration in this matter.
Good stuff, is the screw that holds your arca swiss to your quick release long enough? I bought the quick release after watching your video but I feel like the screw is really short, did you buy longer screw? What did you do that that point?
hi Peter, really useful video, I want to buy the ulanzi handle you use in the video but I see that many use the smallrig or dji one, which one of these 3 do you recommend? because the ulanzi one seems to me the only one that can be folded and made to become a double socket
great video. question, for the side handle, what is the connector you use below so you can attach it. as is, i can't attach the side handle since there's not enough "screw" to add it in there. much appreciated boss
@jaywbus @@PeterMakholm I still have trouble keeping my f38 plate attached to my gimbal while mounting side handle. It gets anti twisted when I tighten my side handle and is not sitting tight at all. Could you please let me know the work around you found for this?
merry Christmas. Keep you dope video coming
Thanks, more videos will come in the new year.
Hey Peter, the links provided for the UUrig side handle: say for Ronin S and SC and not the RS 2. Are they one and the same?
Yes it is universal.
ow u doing?,this is well . amigo-=))
Thanks mate. Merry Christmas.
I bought the F38 to release the feet from the base, but I find the base is too smooth and doesn't have any grab so it keeps slipping loose. How did you get yours on solid?
0.12 looks like you need to learn FIRST - how to calibrate your dji rs2
i dont get it. people want to teach without knowing NOTHING!
wtf!

Great vid...what lens is that on your Lumix? I just picked up my Rs2 and a ninja V. But i am lacking in lenses

how about the Rear Operating Control Handle? from Tilta
What's the light and gray background set? They both look nice.

omg, why did I not know about that small rig plate before now. merry Christmas peter
Thanks mate. Merry Christmas to you as well. Stay safe.
Can the back hanlde be mounted on DJI RS3??
cool video!👍🏻Im also super happy with ulanzi & smallrig accessories.
Thanks mate. Great to hear.
Hey Peter, wondering if the zhiyun quick release can be used on the tripod at the bottom?
Yes it can. I have been using the zhiyun quick release before I swiched to the falcam f38.
Shit im still trying to get mine balanced right for the first time
This is an awesome video and details dude, Realy I benefit a lot from your video. Great thanks and keep going

Hi, thanks. I have a full video coming up of how I use The Peak designs straps with my gimbal.
@@PeterMakholm Oh great!!! I will be looking forward to that video!...
Thanks for everything, greetings from Barcelona (Spain).

Can we please have the same accessories video for RS3 🫠
Yes mate 👊

@@PeterMakholm Thank you for the suggestion - I'll be searching for a cage! And certainly looking forward to that video.
I have the same setup but wonder if the dual handle SmallRig would work nicer for my back on longer shoots
the wider grip won't benefit you, but if you have long shoot days you should consider a ring and and a easyrig. You could also benefit from a monopod. this allows you to easily rest the gimbal between takes.
@@PeterMakholm thanks Peter. I’ll actually use my monopod that’s a great idea between takes or for statics!
Great video Pete. Should I customize my rs3 like these or go with the combo version? DJI would be a better option?

Hi David, The two lenses that i primarily use is the 16-35mm and the 24-105mm.

Any recommendation / product link to a decent 5' monitor to hook up to the camera? Preferably not overly expensive.
hi Peter, really useful video, I want to buy the ulanzi handle you use in the video but I see that many use the smallrig or dji one, which one of these 3 do you recommend? because the ulanzi one seems to me the only one that can be folded and made to become a double socket

Amazing Gimbal.
I've been trying to solve the anti twist plate issue. awesome to see this. I just got a work around but this Ulanzi system looks legit!
Yes. The Falcam plate with defently stays in place.
@jaywbus @@PeterMakholm I still have trouble keeping my f38 plate attached to my gimbal while mounting side handle. It gets anti twisted when I tighten my side handle and is not sitting tight at all. Could you please let me know the work around you found for this?
Good job!!
Can u do one on weebil 2
