GROUP BUY - TERADEK / RT WIRELESS FIZ

[Jason Diamond]

GROUP BUY CLOSED


Hey everyone, I’ve been speaking to the peeps at RT / Teradek about running a Group Buy to kick off the new partnership between the brands and they said HELL YEAH!!
We've been using the RTMotion/Sidekick receiver on our cameras since earlier this year and I can honestly say it’s one of the tightest FIZ / Camera control integrations out there. There are definitely other options hovering around this price point but I think these guys have nailed the perfect balance of a professional tool at an owner/operator price, killer range and the option of the compact MDR for other cameras definitely covers all the bases.

Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. Tons of info below.

NOW LOCKED IN AT TIER THREE DISCOUNT!!!

So you're tempting me to build a second kit :) This is my absolute favorite FIZ at the moment. Real slick integration on the side of DSMC2 bodies w/ Latitude and you can keep your Sidekick on there too. Their hand controller is small, but really nicely laid out and they nailed the feel. I've said that elsewhere, but just reiterating something that matters for people who pull.

[Jason Diamond]

agreed Phil;, we're speaking the same language :)

Hmmm I am almost pulling the trigger

[Kwan Khan]

Interesting...
Looks like their site is down. Will confirm if I am moving forward with this system or not once check all the details on the site ( I need a system for my 3D Rig with EF).

[Rob Anderson]

Jason, Nice work on the group buy. We already own an RT Motion package but this is a great excuse to gear up another. Here's our purchasing list:

RT MOTION MDR-SK 4-AXIS w/ 2x Motors + 2x Thumbwheels

Thanks!

Will we have to send our ID's to a Chinese Intelligence Agency in the clear?

The checkout process is simple and secure. It will be run exactly as we ran the Serv Pro GB a couple months ago. Once we hit the maximum discount tier, or the GB ends, each person will be contacted with next steps. No payment information will be requested over email or via insecure methods.

[Charles Bergquist]

Awesome!! Thanks so much for putting this together!
