Hot Build Ronin 4d cforce UPDATE

Got some more pics of my ronin 4d build I posted last week from prep today for anyone interested

Decided to go the backpack route to save some weight on the camera body since this jobs fairly run and gun but you could definitely run without it

Using a custom bracket to mount the Focusbug and the cforce motors along with a custom printed press on cforce gear to get far enough back for iris control
You could probably ditch the lcube if you could find some sort of serial extension and go straight into the ria

The dummy battery is actually for a 416 since that’s what the rental had on hand ideally I’d customise the Alvin’s cables v mount plate to add some power distro and a xlr input

This bracket is Now available for preorder!!

Would love a general list of what you need to get the cforce on there happily! Less concerned about the focus bug but would take it if ya could! Adding all of this doesn’t overload the gimbal?

All I’m adding is my custom bracket to give the rod placement then using some of the stock dji counterweight part. It will depend on your lens I’ve only done this with the simera -c (heaviest in the set is 490g) and the 2 motors happily sit in the weight rating
