    Thanks everyone who commented on my RS2 Tips & Tricks video that requested this video. Hopefully, this helps you guys out! It's confusing without any documentation.

    Hey, just a couple of radio-related tips from an electronics engineer. 1) The dual antennas should be perpendicular to eachother for maximum effectiveness. Antennas are polarized, not unlike sunlight (think polarizer filters!), so having the antennas at 90 degrees to eachother means that when one antenna is picking up a weak signal the other will be picking up a strong signal, and vice versa. 2) The suggestion to turn off Bluetooth is because WiFi and Bluetooth are both 2.4GHz and use the SAME antenna in your phone. This is actually impossible to do, so what it means is that your phone is having to constantly toggle between using that antenna for Bluetooth and WiFi, which is incredibly unreliable (especially on Android phones, some more than others). Turning off Bluetooth for just one app like you suggest doing in the video has no effect on this at all (it's essentially just a privacy setting) - you must turn Bluetooth off for the entire phone.

      Hey there Richard, thank you for a more in-depth response! I really wonder about the bluetooth setting for just the Ronin app or just turning off bluetooth in general - it does seem to make a difference on my iPhone. I understand from a technical standpoint that it might not make sense but I wonder if apple is doing something tricky to actually shut off bluetooth? Or if its not "actually" shutting it off, but denying permissions to single apps? This is above my pay grade but thanks for bringing that up! I love knowing things like this! Thanks for the great insight and watching

      @@keith-knittel My guess would be that when BT is left enabled for the app, that the app tries to connect to the gimbal automatically or at least tells iOS that it may want to use BT, and that causes the difference you see. I'm pretty sure that even with BT disabled for the app, if you had another app in the background using BT or were using BT headphones (which is possible as BT is still enabled on the phone) that you'd see the same or worse degredation. It's hard to say for sure as it's all behind-the-scenes stuff, and Apple does change the behaviour quite frequently between iOS versions as it can have a large impact on battery life. If I get a RS2+RavenEye, I'll have to do some testing!

    Thank-you again! 🙏 Just set-up my RS2 and RavenEye last night, and it was all so confusing (and this is my first gimbal).

    Honestly that’s the best laid out tutorial video I’ve seen for Raven Eye. You are so correct that information is thin and anyone else doing a tutorial has left out important information and steps. Congrats on doing this very well. One question, I have Sony cameras, too, but always use the multi cable for control and not USB C. If you buy a Ronin S control cable for Sony from DJI, for example, it comes with the micro USB for multi. It’s working for me with multi input on RS 2. I’ll experiment and try the USB C to see what happens and let you know.

    • @javajack-1
      @javajack-1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Okay Keith, just tried replacing the USB micro or mini into the camera with USB C and I lost all control. I’m using a new a7siii and tried your tip of controlling with PC and not mass storage, but all I got was image edge coming up on the monitor with a choice of MTP or USB. I couldn’t get anything to work and eventually went back to the multi plug in and everything was fine again. I know my A73 and A7R3 also work with the multi input for record start, etc. I don’t get ISO, shutter speed and aperture in Ravens eye in the DJI app. Are you getting this additional control?

    • @keith-knittel
      @keith-knittel  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there Jack - I this is the experience I've been going through as well. I'm thinking about making another video addressing the RS2, how to rig it up, which cable to use and the drawbacks of using each cable for a7iii's and an a6400 (those are the cameras I have). Lots of trade offs based on camera and even resolution.

    I recommend using the Andycine think HDMI cable going from the camera to the field monitor/atomos ninja/smallhd monitor. It takes the tension off the gimbal. I had that issue when I used a normal HDMi cable (like you said, hard to cable manage and tugs on the gimbal).

    Brilliant vid and really helped get my RS2 and RavenEye working with my S1
    Glad I didn't have to rely solely on the DJI quick start guide that although "correct" leaves a lot open to interpretation
    One small glitch that I came across is a limit on what resolution can be filmed and sent over HDMI at the same time
    Therefore you can have everything setup & show in the app, but the image freezeses as soon as you press record
    To resolve this you need to reduce the video quality for it to work
    I have only tried this on my Pansonic Lumix S1, but reading a few other forums it seems to be an issue on the Sony A7 as well
    It looks to be a restriction set in the camera, so hopefully will be resolved in firmware updates

    Hi! I work with a Sony a6400 and recently bought RSC2 and Raveneye. I've already managed to connect and have access to control the camera's gimbal, tracking and REC. However, I can't change the aperture, speed and ISO parameters (they are set to "0"). I replaced the accompanying cable (sony multi) with the micro usb cable, in this case I can change the values but when starting to record (REC), the image is black on the smartphone and on the display. I've checked everything and I don't know what it can be. The settings are like Remote PC and HDMI Auto output. If you know what it can be, thank you.

    Thanks for the video. I am using A6400 on RSC2 and i have some problems. Connections ok but raveneye on phone started to display camera view too much laggy. I changed wifi signal type but nothing happened. At the start, it was very fluid but it became laggy suddenly and i couldn't solve the issue. Secondly, record button on gimbal does not function. I unchecked the record button in the display of Raveneye but nothing happened again. It's indicated that a dedicated cable is needed to make a timelapse but i couldn't find this cable either in the box.

  • @zapvista
    @zapvista 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    First of all thanks for your video. I have noticed that the raveneye eats unbelievable battery and reduces the performance of the battery by half. After 3-4 hours of use I was up to 20% with the battery - that's not much! And: raveneye probably has its own battery. When I switch off the gimbal, the connection and the picture to the phone is maintained. So a USB connection to raveneye would not be necessary at all - as long as it was fully charged. But I haven't tried everything in detail myself yet ....

    • @zapvista
      @zapvista 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      sometimes it makes sense to read the manual ;) Raveneye has its own battery, which lasts up to 3,5 hours and of course works without gimbal, that's why the hotshoe. you can plug it directly on the camera. with a 2nd USB cable to the camera you can then also control the camera with the Ronin app. With the Nikon Z6 it does not work. But you could have this function directly from the camera to the mobile phone via the Nikon app. Or with a Sony AR7 III with the Imaging Edge Mobile app ... in any case without all the cable hassle ... anyway - so it only makes sense to use raveneye together with the gimbal, because then you can control both devices (gimbal and camera) in one app.

    • @keith-knittel
      @keith-knittel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I definitely unplug the RavenEye when I'm not using it to maximize my gimbal battery life. The RavenEye has it's own battery, but I don't really use the RavenEye on it's own without the gimbal because I have an A7iii and HDMI in 4K is a little restrictive (no face detect af, screen goes blank). That being said, it's still nice to use in certain situations. For remote viewing and checking up on the camera, using the RavenEye with the cold shoe is a great option!

  • @jeffbrass2351
    @jeffbrass2351 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    awesome vids. have been very helpful. One thing I would say though is on regards to coiled HDMI cables on gimbals - they can be crap for balance - as the gimbal moves the tension changes hence changing the balance. They also always place strain on the HDMI connections and we've seen a few people have failed HDMI ports who where using coiled cables. And the majority of people we have helped with dropped frames/failed recordings that have been cable issues, its the Atomos coiled cable that has been the issue. At one stage we were coming across it a couple of times a week.just my 2 cents worth :)

    • @keith-knittel
      @keith-knittel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Jeff, saw your comment a week ago but guess my comment didn't send. I could see how after repeatedly using smaller coiled cables that will put a lot of stress on the port (especially micro HDMI's like the A7III) I'm going to include a more thorough HDMI cable break down in my next RS2 video. I've gone nuts purchasing multiple mini to full HDMI cables of lengths and coiled/uncoiled for my A7III, and now since purchasing the A7S III - full size cables. Since it seems like you have a lot of experience with this, do you have any recommendations for cables for me to test? Not that I need anymore cables! But interested in what you think the best ones are. Thanks for your 2 cents!

    If you connect everything but the usb c cable from RSS to the camera, the Raveneye will at least send a video signal, or it needs the double connection (hdmi and usb-c) with the camera necessarily?
    My camera Blackmagic needs the usb-c port and I only need to send a video signal, no tracking or other fancy stuff..

      You can buy you'd have to use a HDMI from your camera, to the monitor HDMI in, then from the monitor HDMI out to the RavenEye. That seems like it's going to be a large rig, but some shoots my require something like that! Thanks for the kind words

      Oh yes, I agree a lower contrast depicts a brighter/ happier image. You have got that perfect balance in your newer videos too. I’ve certainly used a lower contrast to depict a happier or even dreamer images. I have also at times increased the contrast just a bit to much too , at it doesn’t work well.

      @@edthompson9123 That's just the limitation of the A7III, I've really resisted the urge to make a sony a7iii + rs2 setup video in all the configurations since firmware may update in the future (and there are multiple configurations to use the camera, raven eye, control cable and gimbal together) but if you need the RavenEye with the A7III, I typically don't use any camera control cable at all. Just start/stop and adjust the settings on your camera. USBC connections cause the screen to go black when recording in 4K (cant remember about 1080p). This isn't a fault of the raven eye, but a fault of the camera - so it's frustrating to diagnose. Anymore, I'm leaning towards no cable at all and just press record manually on the A7III. I just picked up an A7S III, so I'll do more testing with that camera as well. Sorry for the long-winded response, but thank you for following up. This camera and gimbal combination is confusing and frustrating, the lack of docs makes it even worse.

    Great video which covers most of the issues I came across - wish I had seen this first. I have one annoying problem. Having attached the RavenEye I cannot balance the gimbal from the app when connected using the RavenEye (Wifi) connection. Frustratingly that means that you have to disconnect, enable BlueTooth, connect and balance and then disconnect BT and connect via Wifi. Am certain I'm missing something but cannot find what the problem is. Would be good to have HDMI passthrough to route onto a recorder and still retain the remote camera controls and record full resolution.

I use it for filming objects, but as far as setting it up and filming and taking the place of a camera operator.. the tech isnt there yet in my opinion. It's getting better, but not as good as the drone active tracking yet. Hope that helps! I have another video about the RS2 and raveneye that goes into a little more detail on my channel.
