Troubleshooting

Camera feels loose in the cage

Check all three mounting connection points and tighten the screws using an Allen key; ensure the camera is properly seated before tightening.

SSD drive is not connecting or dropping frames

Verify the cable is securely attached and that the SSD holder is mounted in a way that doesn't put strain on the cable's bend radius.

Difficulty balancing on a gimbal

Try detaching the modular right-side arm to reduce overall weight and allow for better side-to-side clearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your cage, begin by aligning the camera body with the three-point mounting holes, ensuring all screws are tightened firmly with the provided tools. For gimbal use, detach the right side arm using the integrated locking mechanism. The baseplate is designed for seamless integration with DJI RS3 Pro systems using the ARCA interface; ensure the plate is locked securely to avoid any play. To care for your cage, regularly check that all mounting screws are tight, especially after heavy use. Keep the NATO rails and Arri-rosettes clean from grit or debris to ensure smooth accessory attachment. Avoid using excessive force when tightening the HDMI adapter to prevent stress on the camera's internal port.
