Tilta Hydra Mini Arm Pro Kit - V Mount

Description

The Tilta Hydra Mini Arm Pro Kit - V Mount is the ultimate cinema camera car crane. Complex vehicle-mounted cinematography is now more within reach for filmmakers than ever.

The system is portable, lightweight, and relatively easy to use for filming vehicles from multiple angles while in movement.

Designed specifically for the RS 3 PRO and RS 2, but compatible with a range of gimbals and camera systems such as the Ronin 4D, Ronin MX, and Freefly Movi Pro.

The lightweight, counterweight-free design makes the system faster to set up and safer to operate, as users only need to focus on one end of the arm at any given time.

The Pro Kit includes suction cups, speed rail, and ratchet straps that allow you to mount the system easily to most vehicles that can support the 70kg weight of the arm, not including a gimbal or camera.

There are optional suction cup kits for vehicles with various-sized sunroofs, including panoramic sunroofs and an optional Electronic Kit that allows users to monitor the suction cup pressure for added safety remotely.

The Shock Absorbing Arm helps stabilize the gimbal when operating on uneven surfaces and can be adjusted for various payloads.

The Shock Absorbing Head of the arm can be individually adjusted for both the horizontal and vertical axis.

The included Controller connects via a wired connection ensuring reliable communication to the arm.

The Controller gives the operator access to various options for the tilt and pan axis, including speed, dampening, and range of motion limitations for each axis individually.

Custom user settings allow the operator to select from a range of configurations so that they can operate in a way that is most comfortable to them.

Pro Mode is an expanded control option that allows users to control the Hydra Arm Mini and an RS2/RS3 Pro Gimbal simultaneously through the controller.

Please note this is not recommended for most shooting situations and is only advised with proper precautions.

The system can support speeds of up to 120 km/h in ideal conditions. Still, we recommend keeping speeds at or below 60km/h, especially when using heavier cameras or lighter gimbals.

The primary factors impacting operating speeds are camera weight, gimbal strength, and weather conditions.

Other gimbals can be used as long as they can be mounted via 1/4″-20 threads, powered via V-Mount batteries and stay within the 10kg weight limit.

The system includes a V-Mount Battery Plate mounted on the arm's end, allowing users to power their gimbal via the included P-Tap to 2 Pin Power Cable or with a different cable if needed.

The arm does not have any power, or video passthrough features, meaning you will need to utilise a wireless video transmitter (not included) and power your camera via onboard batteries or the V-Mount battery plate found on the arm.

To power the system, you will need a 220V 1800wH+ power source which is NOT INCLUDED.
