Tilta WLC-T05-CH Overview

With an additional two channels of control, the Nucleus Nano II Control Handle from Tilta allows cinematographers to adapt to any shooting scenario, whether mounted to a shoulder rig for solo operation, combined with a monitor and Handwheel Controller for follow focus work, or used with the optional Wireless Receiver Module to remotely control DJI RS Focus Motors, RS 2, and RS 3 Pro gimbals.
Multichannel Configuration
  • Pair it with the Handwheel Controller to operate up to four motors such as focus, iris, zoom, and Tilta's Mirage VND.
  • The Control Handle's NATO Module supplies power to the Handwheel Controller when connected for extended use.
  • The Control Handle can be used independently to wirelessly operate two Nucleus Series motors with the focus dial and joystick.
  • With the optional Wireless Receiver Module, operate DJI RS 2 or RS 3 Pro gimbals with the joystick, and RS Focus Motors with both the joystick and focus dial.
Compatibility
The Nano II is backward compatible with the previous generation Nucleus-Nano and Nucleus-M lens motors for easy integration with your preexisting equipment. The current firmware fully supports all controls for the BMPCC 4K, 6K, and 6K Pro via Bluetooth only, with partial camera control, including run/stop, shutter speed, ISO, and iris adjustment for Sony FX3, A7S3, A7R5, ZV-E1, ZV-E10, and Canon R7 via USB-C PD cables.

For the most current features, camera, and gimbal support, please visit the Tilta website.

Note:
Some features listed above are not fully functional in the current firmware, such as DJI Ronin and DJI Focus Motor compatibility and lens mapping, and will be implemented with future firmware updates.

Tilta WLC-T05-CH Reviews

Stopped working after 2 uses

Im talking to Tilta now to see why this unit bricked after two uses. It's pretty insane. If they help I will remove or update this review, for no I would say stay away until they come up with a more stable version.

Great idea but poor execution

First understand I gave Tilta's new shoulder rig 5 stars and the hand-wheel 5 stars as well. But this thing is a serious miss - so much so that I'm returning it. A) The display is microscopic! I gave it to my 14 year old nephew with perfect eyesight and he couldn't read it. You literally have to have a magnifying glass and be in dim light to see it. The previous model, which I also own, was much brighter and larger. Tilta literally went backwards with this display. A good redesign would allow you to access the handle's information and setup via the large, bright screen on the connected handwheel - but not at present on this product. B) The handle is too short. My average size hand fits around it fine, but not after I attach the hand-wheel which causes my knuckle to press against the bottom of the wheel and I have to slide my hand off the bottom of the grip to compensate. Maybe Tilta had very small people design it? C) I had only minimal issues upgrading the firmware on the hand-wheel and the new motors, but this thing was impossible. I spent half a day repeatedly getting it to progress up to the 100% indicator... then nothing. It fails and wants to start over again. Never could get it to work despite carefully troubleshooting re Tilta's website firmware update log. D) Despite multiple tries I could not get it to pair with the Tilta receiver (TRA-WCR) on the DJI RS2 gimbal. It simply refused. E) The handwheel's contacts are quite hard to align properly with the pins on the handle. The wheel came loose several times after I thought it was locked on when it wasn't. The NP style battery is a great idea - but far outweighed by this product's fatal flaws. I'm now mounting the new handwheel on the old handle (BH #TIGAARGRCH) which works just fine. Only thing you lose is the ability of the handle to power the handwheel. Sorry Tilta - great products but this one needs help.

Can this handle adjust iso?

Can this handle adjust iso?
Asked by: Dantana
The Tilta Nucleus Nano II Control Handle by itself is not able to adjust ISO. The Tilta Nucleus Nano II Handwheel Controller, BH #TIWLCT05HWC, would be needed in order to get camera control other than start/stop with compatible cameras.

Do you need the handle wheel to setup the hand-grip and the motors; I'm thinking of the hand-grip and two motors?
Asked by: David
The Tilta Nucleus Nano II Control Handle is capable of controlling two motors on its own by manipulating its dial and joystick. However, for more precise control, and for control of up to four motors, the Tilta Nucleus Nano II Handwheel Controller (B&H # TIWLCT05HWC) would be necessary.
