Dji Ronin SC Setup and How to Balance

The DJI Ronin SC is a fantastic Tavel gimbal for mirrorless cameras like the Sony a6400 the A7iii and other light weight setups. I will walk you through the Ronin SC Setup process and how to balance the ronin sc so you get the best most stable footage from it.

Thank you for this great How To! Did you manage to balance the ronin sc with the Sony a6400 and your Tamron 28-75 or will it hit the motors at the back because it is to front heavy?

Your tutorial is way better than DJI's, you actually explained every step and explained what the two cables do. Good job!

[damitdustin]

Dude..thank you. You just saved me a bunch of time and forcing me to realize it was user error and not an issue with the gimbal, lol.

literally ignored my gimbal since ive had it because I could sort it out so for the first time in 5 months following this I actually got it set up thank you

This is by far the best video I've found. Each time i get a new setup i come back to this video. I've tried others and they miss half the stuff you talk about. Thank you!

i dont understand the dislikes. The title says it all. How to balance. Its a straight forward process and this guy made it simple. Thanks for the video! ;)

Great tutorial Jake. A lot of people have front-heavy balance issues, even though the camera-lens combo is well under the max weight. I have the Sony RX10 M4 with the Ronin SC. Because of the heavy lens, it is possible to balance, but the eyepiece hits when tilting the handle down. Solution is from DJI but not well advertised. They sell a counter balance system that works very well. It is cleverly designed to hang out the left side, well clear of the gimbal, allowing full movement..

You're a lifesaver man! This was the 4th(?) tutorial the others just messed me up. Finally start to finish and all works as I'd hoped!

You use all the right phrasings to make this comprehensible one shot. thank you

I just got my Robin SC today and look who I found on YouTube randomly! 🤙

Hey Jake. Thanks for this video. I just recently upgraded(?) from the Ronin S to Ronin SC - I found the S to be a bit too complicated and heavy - esp since I shoot most stuff with the Panasonic GH5, which is a pretty light camera. Anyway, glad you could walk me through the set up. Much appreciated!

I appreciate this, and the other 2 videos related to the ronin sc. I've searched and no one else got into detail the way you did. thank you

[Etownvideos]

as a first time ronin sc user I found this super helpful, thanks.

[stowgood]

Finally someone explained YAW to me :) I am very grateful thanks.

[BristolProductions]

Thank you. So much better than what DJI has on their site.

[aviosmedia]

Thanks! This was the clearest one I have seen so far.

[quietkatherine]

Just balanced for the first time, your video was very helpful! Thank you!

[newfishonbike]

Great tutorial, this was a lot more helpful than DJI’s miniature setup guide that feels like it was created for ants lol

[AlienDrones]

Thanks, man! Worked out just dandy. 👽🛸

Thanks so much! 😊 Mine is coming next week and I'm so worried about doing this right! I will have this video on as I set it up!
