Product description

• RT Latitude MDR-M Receiver (1-2 Axis) The mini RT MDR-M Receiver (1-2 Axis) from Teradek is part of the Latitude lens control system operating via both RF (wireless) and WiFi. This receiver's 0.6-mile wireless range is handy for drone use and for when you're operating in harsh RF environments like stadiums. Expanding upon the camera run/stop function of the RT MK3.1, the MDR-M's WiFi connectivity provides camera control for RED DSMC2/DSMC cameras (with additional cameras to be added via a firmware update). This Latitude receiver is compatible with RT MK3.1 controllers and motors, driving up to two lens motors with functions such as focus, iris, and/or zoom (controller and motors available separately).The MDR-M Receiver's integration with RED provides several options for DSMC2/DSMC lens and camera control. Use the RT MK3.1 wireless controller and RF wireless to control EF lenses via their internal motor; PL lenses can be controlled with the addition of RT Motors. Both the MK3.1 controller and the RT Smartknob can provide shutter, ISO, and button-feature control. RT Thumbwheels can provide focus and iris control, and the Foolcontrol app can be used with a WiFi connection.In Transmitter Mode, two MRR-M units can be paired to extend control up to 0.9 miles away from your camera using WiFi, RF wireless, and the RT Foolcontrol iOS/Android app. Use the Foolcontrol app to a create a versatile interface between the Latitude system and your camera, lens, and smartphone.The RT MDR-M Receiver is made from aircraft-grade aluminum, and is designed with an integrated antenna, lessening the chance of antenna damage. Power this ultra-compact, lightweight receiver via its 7-17V 2-pin LEMO port. Note: This receiver has one motor port, a Dual Motor cable (not included) is required to control two motors.

  • RT MK3.1 Brushless Lens Motor Teradek's RT MK3.1 Brushless Lens Motor is designed to remotely control your lens focus, iris, or zoom, or other function. The MK3.1 motor operates smoothly and quietly, even during slow, high-torque moves. This brushless motor features electronic backlash-compensation, a high-resolution encoder, and an integrated heat sink. For optimal flexibility, a gear can be attached to either side of the MK3.1 Motor, expanding position choice to either side of the lens, depending on your camera configuration. For maximum mounting flexibility, the MK3.1 Motor includes a height-adjustable 19mm rod bracket with a 15mm insert adapter. A 0.8 mod lens gear is included with the motor; gears are available separately in 0.4/0.5/0.6 mod, and 0.8 mod wide options. Thin, flexible 3mm cables (available separately) save space, and enable close arrangements of your motor(s) on your camera rig.
    Features
    • • Remotely control your lens focus, iris, or zoom, or other function
      • Long-lasting brushless vector drive
      • Includes a 0.8 mod lens gear
      • Gear can be positioned on either side of the motor
      • Height-adjustable 19mm rod bracket with a 15mm insert adapter
      • Electronic backlash-compensation accommodates a wide range of lens torque
      • Uses strong, thin, 3mm cables for easy positioning on your camera rig

  • RT CTRL.1 Single-Axis Wireless Lens Controller For precise lens control with your Teradek RT motors and receivers, the Teradek RT CTRL.1 Single-Axis Wireless Lens Controller can control focus, iris, or zoom with ease. The CTRL.1 has a wireless range of 5000' so you can control your lens functions when up on a crane or down the block, or you can use an optional 5-pin motor controller cable to connect directly to a motor.
    
    The large focus knob, start/stop control button, bright OLED display for configuration and lens data, and its lightweight design make the CTRL.1 accessible and easy to use. You can also control multiple motor units on the same lens simultaneously with the CTRL.1.
    
    It's powered by a single LP-E6 battery which provides approximately 36 hours of usage time. Optional features include a lens mapping firmware update to utilize separately available, pre-marked focus or iris rings for quick autocalibration when switching lenses during a shoot. The CTRL.1 comes with a neck strap, a mini-USB firmware cable, and a large hard-shell case with custom foam insert to transport your controller and cables. UPC: 818264024430
