Adjust the grips to the desired position and tighten the screws to secure their position. 2. Place the handle bar in the position as shown below. 3. Push the lock [1]downward on the pan motor, and slide the handle bar into the gimbal. Then tighten the lock-knob [2]. 4.
Ronin User Manual Smart Battery Installation 1. Loosen the thumb screws on either side of the battery. Slide the battery directly into the gimbal and then slide down. Be sure the battery’s thumb screws go down into their locating slots making full contact with the gimbal’s electrical leads. 2. Tighten the thumb screws on the battery to lock it in place. Getting Started Make sure the battery is powered off during the installation.

Ronin User Manual Handle Bar Adjustment The customizable handle bar of the Ronin can be removed by following the steps below, if required. 1. Loosen screw on either grip. Balancing 2. Remove the grip from the handle bar. Loosen the two screws and then the top bar can be removed. 3. The resulting setup is shown below. Balancing To achieve the best performance from the Ronin, proper balancing is necessary and a must.
Ronin User Manual Step 1: Balancing the Tilt Axis First, we need to balance the camera fore and aft on the Tilt Axis. When the proper fore and aft tilt balance is achieved, the camera will stay level when you remove your hands. 1. Loosen the camera base's side clamp to allow the camera and mounting plate to slide forwards and backwards. 2. Slide the camera forwards or backwards until the Tilt Axis remains level. It takes very small adjustments to get the balance right. 3.
Ronin User Manual 3. Tighten the tabs and be sure the measurement marks match up on either side of the vertical bars. If they do not match up, the assembly could possibly be skewed higher or lower on one side, which would cause the tilt motor to bind. Once the tab is tightened, manually rotate the assembly simulating tilt to ensure there is no binding in the tilt motor.

Ronin User Manual 2. Live Data This monitors the feedback from each motor axis. If a particular motor axis indicates a power greater than 10, this often means the mechanical balancing of the camera hasn’t been properly adjusted. A properly balanced camera rig will have each axis indicating close to 0 power. Don’t worry if these settings are not always 0. The Angle indicates the current angle at which each axis is in relation to center. 3.
Ronin User Manual 1. Gimbal Motor Adjustment The Auto Tune Stability button allows for automatic adjustment of each motor’s stiffness settings (as relayed from the sensors and how the Ronin sees each axis’s interaction) to accomplish an optimized setting. Besides tuning stiffness, there are other electronic settings being tuned.

Ronin User Manual 2. Controller Maximum Speed Maximum Speed is a function that allows the controlled stick response from being a linear response to what is known as an increasing response curve. This means the amount of gimbal travel in the Pan or Tilt is not directly proportional to control stick travel.
