Description

SmartSystem Matrix One R2 Lite Bundle

Precision-Built for Ronin™ 2 Operators – Lightweight, Low-Mode Ready, Monitor-Friendly Stabilization System

The SmartSystem Matrix One R2 Lite Bundle is a professional-grade, fully integrated stabilizer system purpose-built for camera operators who require top-tier performance and flexibility while using the DJI Ronin™ 2 gimbal. Based on the renowned Matrix 40mm / 1.57″ carbon fiber central post, this system offers a lightweight yet rugged platform for dynamic and demanding cinematography. The R2 Lite configuration caters specifically to operators who prefer a minimal and streamlined monitor setup, directly mounted on the gimbal handle instead of a stabilized monitor system like Horizon.

This bundle includes the SmartSystem ArmX1, one of the most acclaimed stabilizer arms on the market. It is designed to deliver a seamless and vibration-free shooting experience with a wide payload range and fully adjustable tension control. Together with the Matrix One R2 Lite sled, the bundle supports ultra-smooth transitions between high mode and low mode, making it an ideal solution for fast-paced film, commercial, or documentary shoots where flexibility and speed are critical.

Engineered for high efficiency and modular expansion, the Matrix One R2 Lite Bundle integrates internal cable routing (for power and video), tool-free adjustments, and rigid yet lightweight materials, all of which contribute to a balanced, professional setup that’s easy to manage and quick to deploy on set.

Detailed Features & Benefits

• Matrix 40mm R2 Lite Carbon Post Construction
  The core of the bundle is the Matrix carbon fiber post, offering 40mm diameter for high stiffness, vibration dampening, and reduced weight. Optimized for handheld gimbal integration, especially the Ronin™ 2, it ensures maximum stability in both high and low operating positions.

• Perfectly Suited for Ronin™ 2
  Seamless physical integration with the DJI Ronin™ 2 allows operators to mount, fly, and rebalance the gimbal effortlessly. The system is engineered to maintain perfect center of gravity while transitioning from high to low mode with no compromise in performance.

• SmartSystem ArmX1 Included
  The ArmX1 provides consistent, smooth motion thanks to its adjustable dual-spring technology. Built to handle varying payloads, it offers operator-adjustable tensioning, quick arm post mounting, and strong vertical lift, making it ideal for handheld gimbal or camera sled work.

• Low Mode-Ready with Modular Support
  Designed with low-mode shooting in mind, the R2 Lite configuration supports full-range vertical movements without interfering with balance, cabling, or operator comfort. Modular accessories and brackets are available to further enhance its low-mode versatility.

• Tool-Free Operation
  Quick-release mechanisms and tool-free adjustments across the system mean you can make fast changes without interrupting production. From fine-tuning the sled balance to switching between configurations, every detail is optimized for speed.

• Compact Monitor Preference
  The R2 Lite bundle is tailored to operators who prefer using a compact monitor mounted directly to the gimbal handle, rather than a brushless monitor stabilizer like the Horizon. This simplifies the rig and reduces total weight—particularly useful for action or run-and-gun shooting styles.

• Internal Power and Video Routing
  Clean internal cable pathways for 12V, 24V, and HD-SDI minimize external clutter, reduce snag risks, and offer professional-grade reliability. Designed to integrate with both the gimbal and accessories without external cable loops.

• Built with Aerospace-Grade Materials
  Manufactured using a blend of aerospace aluminum, stainless steel, and carbon fiber, the system ensures maximum durability while keeping weight to a minimum—perfect for long shooting days or handheld usage.

• Fully Expandable with SmartSystem Ecosystem
  Compatible with a wide range of SmartSystem accessories, including U-Brackets, Low-Mode brackets, V-lock battery mounts, Volt™ integration brackets, and professional trolleys for transport and storage.
