  • 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 :)

I run mostly on drones and a couple of questions maybe somebody is already able to answer

1. Does the camera power port on the gimbal can support the increased power draw of the Raptor? (I'm running TB50's)
2. Does as with DSMC2 all functions on the Movi controller work? ( I know there isn't a direct cable yet, but pinouts are published in Operations Guide)
3. How do the interfaces coming through HDMI look?
 
1. I bet it will power thru Movi easly. Lots of people runs their Monstros and Alexas Mini with shhit load of accessories with no issue.
2. This is tricky one. For now it's NOT working. The only cable you can buy is Ignite Digi ( https://www.ignitedigi.com.au/colle...e-movipro-movixl-to-redkomodo-lemo-rightangle ) and it is only for start/stop (trigger protocol must be set to Arri RS). To implement full funcionality, Freefly needs to release proper cable and update Movi firmware to work with RCP2 protocol.
 
Thanks Peter after my post I read somewhere that Red was talking about making a backwards compatible firmware for Komodo to allow control over the old protocol.
So if you read this please RED make it backwards compatible to be honest that and the missing ND is the only thing holding me back to pull the final trigger. I put a refundable deposit down though.
The Komodo was a B-cam for all bigger productions, but I think this raptor will start to replace Monstros etc, also Helicopter stuff etc.
Thinking of all the existing infrastructure it would be a shame especially if this is an option. Also does anybody know what benefit RCP2 allows, is it the livestream perhaps?
