  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

6K Dragon-X DSMC2 Petition!

Not open for further replies.
Hello,

So do we know if this 5k ->6k software challenge for Dragon-X will be effective? I'm ready to send my camera in for the 4995.-- upgrade to unified body with IPP2 goodies.

Ok all... this looks like this will go live December 17th(ish)

But since this started here for you all, you guys can get a head start to jump in and book your reservations now so when its time you are at the front of the line.

You'll need to game the system a bit and use the existing upgrade form on RED.com to kick the process off as it is the easiest and quickest way to get your information in. The details listed will be wrong but ignore all that we are just using the form to get your name serial etc.

https://www.red.com/dsmc2-upgrade-for-scarlet-w-form

SCARLET-W and WEAPON-MG users pricing for the upgrade is $4950.

Existing Dragon-X 5k owners will get the free firmware around the 17th as well, and if you want to send your camera in to get the 5k changed to 6k it will cost $150 for the paint touchup version, if you want a full 6k front enclosure change let your rep know we need to see how many of you are so we can see batch opportunities to keep the pricing down.

Amazing news!!!! Thanks Jarred and team!
 
Thanks!!

What do we Dragon-X owners need to do if we want to do the paint touchup/full 6k front enclosure change?
 
At the risk of asking a stupid question; does this upgrade programme benefit WEAPON 6K CF users? And if so, how? I’m fairly confused...

Most excellent! To clarify, Dragon-x owners do not need to fill out the form unless they want the 5k to 6k changed on the front plate, correct?
 
Jarred, please tell me this will extend into next year. Still not sure what we MG dudes all gain fully aside from staying on the tracks of this train and future upgrades and in camera IPP2. My worry is all future future upgrades will be locked out unless on Dragon-X (6K), Helium DSMC2, Gemini DSMC2 or Monstro DSMC2.

I'm also a bit unsure of the benefits to us Mg owners, so I'm struggling to justify the upgrade cost for IPP2 in camera (and slightly higher data rates?). Not sure if it is better to save the money for DSMC3, or if this is perhaps our only path to DSMC3. Would be great to know if there will be an option for Weapon Mg (DSMC2) -> DSMC3 or if we have to go DSMC2 -> DSMC2 (unified) -> DSMC3.
