MotoCrane TB50 Plate Set

Description

MotoCrane TB50 Plate Set

The MotoCrane TB50 Plate Set is a specialized and highly integrated power solution designed to seamlessly utilize DJI TB50 Intelligent Batteries (commonly used with DJI Inspire 2 drones and Ronin 2 gimbals) to power MotoCrane TITAN series remote heads and connected cinema cameras. This essential accessory provides a clean, efficient, and reliable method for onboard power distribution, optimizing balance and streamlining rigging for professional cinematic applications.

The MotoCrane TB50 Plate Set is engineered to integrate directly with the MotoCrane TITAN LT or TITAN series remote heads. It typically comprises a mounting plate with integrated TB50 battery receptacles (usually two, allowing for hot-swapping), and provides power output (e.g., via D-Tap or other industry-standard connectors) to the remote head and potentially to the camera payload mounted on it.

Key features and benefits of this MotoCrane power solution include:

• DJI TB50 Battery Compatibility: Allows users to leverage their existing inventory of reliable and readily available DJI TB50 batteries, standardizing power across different equipment.
• Integrated Power Supply: Provides a dedicated, secure power source directly on the remote head, eliminating the need for bulky external batteries or complex cabling running from an off-head source.
• Optimized Balance: By positioning the batteries directly on the remote head, the plate set contributes to the overall balance of the system, especially when combined with lighter cameras. This reduces strain on the remote head’s motors and improves stabilization performance.
• Hot-Swappable Design: With two TB50 battery slots, the system often supports hot-swapping, allowing operators to change batteries one at a time without powering down the remote head or camera, ensuring continuous operation on long takes.
• Multiple Power Outputs: Beyond powering the MotoCrane remote head itself, the plate usually offers additional regulated power outputs (e.g., multiple D-Tap ports) to power the camera, wireless video transmitters, follow focus motors, and other camera accessories, simplifying power distribution.
• Durable and Secure Mounting: Constructed from robust, lightweight materials, the plate securely locks the TB50 batteries in place, even during aggressive camera movements and high-speed vehicle tracking.

The MotoCrane TB50 Plate Set is an indispensable remote head accessory for cinematographers seeking a streamlined, high-performance power solution for their MotoCrane TITAN system. It enhances operational efficiency, extends runtime, and contributes to the overall balance and stability required for achieving top-tier cinematic results in demanding production environments.
