Teradek RT MDR.S Overview
Ideal for camera operators in single-lens configurations, this RT Single-Channel Wireless Lens Control Bundle from Teradek provides you with one single-axis wireless lens controller, one lens control receiver with Bluetooth, and one brushless lens motor. You can control focus, iris, or zoom functionality from up to 5000' away.
For precise lens control with your Teradek RT motors and receivers, the Teradek RT CTRL.1 Single-Axis Wireless Lens Controller can control focus, iris, or zoom with ease. The CTRL.1 has a wireless range of 5000' so you can control your lens functions when up on a crane or down the block, or you can use an optional 5-pin motor controller cable to connect directly to a motor.
The large focus knob, start/stop control button, bright OLED display for configuration and lens data, and its lightweight design make the CTRL.1 accessible and easy to use. You can also control multiple motor units on the same lens simultaneously with the CTRL.1.
It's powered by a single LP-E6 battery which provides approximately 36 hours of usage time. Optional features include a lens mapping firmware update to utilize separately available, pre-marked focus or iris rings for quick autocalibration when switching lenses during a shoot. The CTRL.1 comes with a neck strap, a mini-USB firmware cable, and a large hard-shell case with custom foam insert to transport your controller and cables.
With 3-channel lens control in an ultracompact form factor, the MDR.S Compact 3-Channel Lens Control Receiver with Bluetooth from Teradek allows you to control compatible RT motors for wireless focus, iris, and zoom functionality. The MDR.S has FHSS wireless technology that prevents interference and a 5000' line of sight range. A 6-pin port on the receiver allows you to trigger run/stop on the camera from your connected hand unit.
The MDR.S features a built-in OLED display with four buttons for control over various functions. Further parameters can be controlled via the device's integrated Bluetooth and the Teradek RT smartphone app. A 28V input range allows you flexibility in powering the receiver.

Teradek's RT MK3.1 Brushless Lens Motor is designed to remotely control your lens focus, iris, or zoom, or other function. The MK3.1 motor operates smoothly and quietly, even during slow, high-torque moves. This brushless motor features electronic backlash-compensation, a high-resolution encoder, and an integrated heat sink. For optimal flexibility, a gear can be attached to either side of the MK3.1 Motor, expanding position choice to either side of the lens, depending on your camera configuration.
For maximum mounting flexibility, the MK3.1 Motor includes a height-adjustable 19mm rod bracket with a 15mm insert adapter. A 0.8 mod lens gear is included with the motor; gears are available separately in 0.4/0.5/0.6 mod, and 0.8 mod wide options. Thin, flexible 3mm cables (available separately) save space, and enable close arrangements of your motor(s) on your camera rig.
