Reel Special Productions is VERY excited to add this new toy tool to our inventory of cutting-edge video production equipment! The DJI Ronin-M is a gimbal that will mostly replace our Glidecam (which we love dearly) and give us buttery-smooth moving video shots.

Be sure to scroll to the bottom to see our first flight and other video clips using the DJI Ronin-M!

The lithium-ion battery had some funky white residue on it as soon as we took it out of the package. Anyone know what the residue may be?

As soon as you pull out the main components you can tell this gimbal is extremely well-built.

The lithium-ion battery took exactly 30 minutes to charge first out of the box. We would suspect it to take around 50-60 minutes to get a full charge if the battery is fully drained.

Besides the obvious color difference, the radio controller closely resembles the one shipped with the Phantom 2.
