Hyper WarpCam® — High‑Speed Pole‑Mounted Cinematic System
HYPER WARPCAM® PACKAGE INCLUDES
WarpCam® Pole System (high-speed pole-mounted configuration)
DJI RS4 Pro (Ronin-series 3-axis stabilization) pole-mounted
Ignite Digi Control Deck (virtual operator station)

HYPER WARPCAM® OVERVIEW
Hyper WarpCam® is a pole-mounted, dual-operator high-speed camera system built for ultra-slow-motion cinematography.
A dedicated pole operator physically maneuvers the rig, while a virtual operator controls stabilized gimbal movement and lens control remotely through the Ignite Digi ecosystem.
The result is fast, dynamic, and precise high-speed camera movement that stays absolutely stabilized in real-world action conditions.
HIGH-SPEED CAMERA PLATFORM (FREEFLY EMBER S5K / “EMBER 5K”)
Sensor Format: Super 35 (S35)
Shutter: Global Shutter (electronic)
Recording Format: Apple ProRes 422 LT (10-bit)

4TB internal SSD (TLC)
2.56TB internal SSD (pSLC high-endurance option)
Continuous Recording: Records directly to the internal SSD (no RAM-based clip limit)
Pre-Record (when configured with pSLC option): 1 second up to 2 hours circular buffer (limited only by media)
Connectivity / Control:
Wireless control via app workflow (Wi‑Fi)
USB‑C high-speed data connection for fast offload

Compact primes are strongly recommended for pole operation and gimbal performance
FIZ Notes:
Focus control is standard
Iris and zoom control depend on lens design and the selected configuration
STABILIZATION & REMOTE OPERATION (RONIN-BASED)
Stabilization: DJI RS4 Pro (Ronin-series) mounted at the pole tip for 3-axis stabilized movement
Workflow: Dual-operator operation
Physical Operator (Pole): maneuvers the system by hand; responsible for framing intent, motion, and positioning
Virtual Operator (Control Deck): controls gimbal pan/tilt/roll plus lens FIZ remotely via the Ignite Digi Control Deck
Integration: Ignite Digi Fusion Hub links gimbal, lens motors, and camera control into a single remote operating workflow (exact rigging and routing not publicly disclosed)
FOCUS / IRIS / ZOOM (FIZ)
Lens Motor Ecosystem: Tilta Nucleus system
Typical Motor Options Used: Tilta Nucleus‑M / Nano II motors (configuration dependent)
Control Options:
Remote operation through the Ignite Digi Control Deck ecosystem
Optional hand-unit style control depending on shooting scenario
FIZBUSTER Integration:
Enables reliable long-range remote FIZ control within the DJI transmission/control workflow
MONITORING & VIDEO DOWNLINK
Real-time wireless video downlink to director’s monitor / video village
DJI Transmission RX/TX workflow (monitor transmitter configuration)
