DJI Senior Product Line Manager Paul Pan suggested trying the Ronin 4D Flex as one of the world’s smallest Full Frame 6K camera remote heads.
And so Lucas, Prince of Darkness, rides again—so named for its 1992 vintage electrical system, “Darkness by Lucas,” (a gentleman does not go motoring about at night.) Also, “Never drive further than you care to walk home.” Prince Lucas was harnessed as camera car with suspension so soft and fuel economy so thirsty it felt like a 2-mile starboard turn by the Exxon Valdez. Fitted only with a Super Clamp and a short length of Spectra sailing safety line, this is not a recommended setup—additional support points would be safer, better, more secure. But Prince Lucas did not stall and the 4D Flex recorded magnificently stabilized POV footage on potholed, puddled roads and soft sandy beaches.
The cable connecting camera and gimbal to the body and recorder is about 2 meters long. You can actually daisy-chain 2 or even 3 cables together. Note anything longer than 1 cable will disable the monitor signal. and 3 lengths stops the LiDAR focus system.
