Product Information
Full details
The DJI External GPS Module is an essential upgrade for professional videographers using the Ronin-S gimbal who need superior stability during high-intensity shooting. By providing real-time positioning and speed data, it enables the gimbal to maintain a rock-solid horizon and react instantly to rapid acceleration or sudden directional changes. While it significantly enhances performance for action-heavy shots, users should note that it requires proper mounting and configuration, making it most suitable for advanced setups rather than casual, run-and-gun filming.

FAQs
Is this module compatible with the Ronin-SC or RS 2/3/4 series?
No, the CP.RN.00000028.01 is specifically engineered for the original DJI Ronin-S.
Does the module need an external battery?
No, the module is powered directly through the Ronin-S connection, requiring 12V input.
How much weight does this add to my gimbal?
The module weighs 38 grams, which is minimal and should not significantly impact your gimbal motor balance.
Do I need to calibrate the GPS?
The module is designed for plug-and-play functionality once securely mounted, but ensure your gimbal is calibrated on a flat surface after installation.
Does it work indoors?
GPS modules require a line-of-sight to satellites; performance will be severely degraded or unavailable indoors.
Troubleshooting
Gimbal not recognizing the GPS module
Ensure all physical connections are secure and the Ronin-S firmware is updated to the latest version.
Erratic behavior or horizon drift
Check that the module is mounted securely and verify that it has a clear, unobstructed view of the sky for signal triangulation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The module is exclusively compatible with the DJI Ronin-S. To set it up, use the provided cheese plate to mount the module securely to your gimbal chassis. Ensure that the module has a clear view of the sky for optimal satellite signal acquisition. Use the included M4 and 1/4"-20 screws to tighten the mounting hardware firmly. For care, keep the sensor housing clean and dry, and avoid subjecting the unit to extreme mechanical impacts, as it contains sensitive electronic components. Always check your connection points before starting a shoot to ensure the module is securely fastened and the cable is routed away from moving gimbal axes.
