  • 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 :)

GROUP BUY - DJI Ronin R2

Ben Scott said:
Had a Weapon 6K on a Ronin 2 on a Black Arm yesterday and it mostly played very nicely.

Only issue I had was at one point both Ronin batteries were on 2 bars and suddenly it wouldn't power the Weapon properly anymore and we lost a clip on the card. Not sure if it was just a quirk or not.

Overall it looks and feels very well made and the controller is excellent. I think we did about 60mph forward facing and over 100mph rear facing.

How long of a time did the Weapon run before Ronin 2 batteries went dead?
 
Does anyone know of a good thumb controller solution for the Ronin 2 or if DJI is even making one?
 
People with Business company in Europe

When you buy the ronin 2 on the dji store, you CANT CLAIMED YOUR VAT actually on the Ronin 2 invoices. On the battery you can.

I am waiting a feedback from Soren to solve this issue.

Actually for company, ronin2 cost more via this Groupbuy than your local dealer who sell it 7200euros vat include.

I have severals exchange with online services, there is no issues

Here is a quote of why the ronin2 dont have vat on the invoice :

As mentioned on the previous emails, VAT is not shown on the invoice you want because this is delivered by HK DJI Ronin Technology Company Limited. When the order is shipped out by HK DJI Ronin Technology Company Limited and not DJI Europe B.V. this is where "Delivered Duty Paid" comes in. HK DJI Ronin Technology Company Limited fulfills his obligation to deliver when the goods have been made available at the named place in the country of importation. The seller has to bear the risks and costs, including duties, taxes and other charges of delivering the goods thereto, cleared for importation.

If your order was delivered by DJI Europe B.V. and want to get an invoice that shows that VAT, you do not have to ask me twice and I would be glad to send a copy of the invoice needed. At this situation, it is HK DJI Ronin Technology Company Limited who delivered your products, and it has been explained over and over again that the percentage of Tax is not shown on the invoice because they obligation to deliver when the goods have been made available at the named place in the country of importation.

They purpose me to reject the shipment that i wont to do because i sold my movipro and doesnt want to stay at least 3weeks time of refund and no gimball. This move cost me 75e more with the gb for R2 + 2 battery than the rretail price without VAT

So be carefull guys until Soren come back to us /me for clarify this point.

Now i will going to grab it on dhl office.

Paid and waiting. Got email from DJI stating they have shipped a partial order (i.e. 2 additional batteries, extra charger, extra power supply and cables). No R2 in that shipment. Paid for the Ready Rig through DJI Store at the same time and that is not even ready for shipment. What IS going on? Didn't they (DJI) say we are getting priority shipping on this GB? We are starting a production on Nov 12th. We need this stuff before that date.

Soren, any comments?

We tested with the 8K model and the system can run for approx. 2.5 hours.

That is a darn good running time per set of Ronin batteries. Your average 98 W/h battery may not give you 2.5 hour run time on a hot or an extremely cold day. Also these guys were subjecting the R2 to higher stress levels than normal, by driving 60 mph forward and 100 facing rear. All those rapid movements require correction and that would deplete batteries much faster.
 
Still nothing. Haven't heard from Soren nor have I received shipping info. I did however get an email from DJI asking me to rate my customer service experience. Needless to say, my rating wasn't good. If they did get another shipment in, all of our orders should have gotten shipping notices. Thank God I never order new gear with a job deadline approaching. It's a great way to really screw yourself over.
I'm convinced I'm going to get no real help from DJI customer service since they seem to have no idea about this group buy and all I get from them is "by the book" customer service employee responses. I would love it if someone could actually give me a real answer sometime soon.

Chris do you have heard something about the fact we cant claim our Vat and the package cost more via the gb than retail price ?
Thanks

I been running the redvolt v-lock to add some weight in the back and provide back up just in case the Ronin failed. Had too many times the pro died mid shot while powering the red/Alexa. Did you have other power going it the red? Or was it just the Ronin? I know with the Movi Pro running accessories from the camera body can cause issues instead of from the gimbal.

After losing clips we put a v-lock on the back.

We'd used my Movi Pro previously and not had a single issue with power, except the batts run out super quick. Used the Ronin for the next shoots because someone had just bought one and wanted to test it, and we figured it could handle higher speeds on the Black Arm.
 
OK Chris,

Paid, informed Soren and still no R2 shipment or ANY communication other than a partial shipment (of 2 additional batteries and additional power supply) from DJI. It has been two weeks or more since that last shipment. What IS going on? Do you think DJI is serious about shipping once they get paid?

@ Soren: I left two PMs and another message on this forum. You did NOT even bother to reply to any of them. I need answers.
 
Don't worry Neil, Dji is secure company so you will have the delivery. From my case, I paid the 2 november and was deliver the 7. I believe it depend where you come from, I am in France, shipping from London apparently via the tracking.

However, I dont have any freedback about the problem for European user who can't claim their VAT, so finally the PRICE of the GB is more than the RETAIL PRICE. I am still waiting the correct invoice even if customer services of DJI said it's impossible. Thanks for let me know.

Chris, what is the deal with the inspire? Is it still part of this GB as you advertised?
