OBSBOT really gets things right. We have a 10 camera setup in a cathedral, 3 of which are Tail Airs - placed right in the middle of the action. Have been using them constantly for 6 months now. Phenomenal performers. Remote is 100-125 feet away, never misses a beat. Having said that, learned a lot from your clear and thorough tutorial.
Thank you!

What are the side connectors? Any info on what those are for? No info in the manual or even marketing materials. They are a bit bothersome sticking out like that especially if one is not going to buy the screen/accessory they plan to sell.

Have they announced what can be connected to the side?

What a great video, thank you so much, quick question with the P1 P2 and P3 buttons. How long do you have to hold them in for to set that camera angle? I can’t see anything in the documentation about that and is there anyway to find the power level of the remote control? Like is there any sort of power meter anywhere in the app or anywhere else?

Unfortunately, your comments are confusing, at least to me. You say: ..."if you saw an opportunity to take an image, you can double press this (FOCUS button)". Not really sure what you are trying to say. Does the FOCUS button take a still photo if you double press it ? Pairing the remote to the Tail-Air was also not very specific. Are you telling us to press the AI button once and/or hold it down and then the three buttons at the bottom of the remote ???? There are many other examples of confusing instructions in this video.

I believe you are trying to help folks, which I appreciate, but just because you have practiced with a device doesn't mean viewers can read your mind regarding the fine details. Have subscribed because perhaps other content on your channel is better.

Not gonna lie I am stuck on how to turn on the remote in the first place? Actually I think I may just need to charge it first 🤦‍♀
