DJI RS 5: 3kg Payload With Touchscreen Subject Tracking
The DJI RS 5 carries up to 3kg (6.6lbs), covering mainstream mirrorless camera and lens combinations with room to spare. Peak motor torque is up 50% over the previous generation, holding stability in fast-moving scenes that would overwhelm a lighter gimbal.
The RS Enhanced Intelligent Tracking Module lets you select a subject directly from the gimbal's touchscreen and keeps them precisely framed, tracking a person up to 10 metres away and reacquiring them within 2 seconds if they briefly leave the frame.

3kg Payload and Enhanced Torque
At just 1.46kg with the battery grip and quick-release plates fitted, the RS 5 carries a 3kg payload, comfortably handling mainstream mirrorless bodies and lenses. Peak motor torque is up 50% over the RS 4, giving the stability margin needed for fast, unpredictable movement rather than slow, deliberate pans.
The 5th-generation RS Stabilisation Algorithm further refines results for walking, running, and vertical shooting, balancing stability against natural, responsive control.
Touchscreen Subject Tracking
The RS Enhanced Intelligent Tracking Module, included in the Combo, lets you tap a subject directly on the gimbal's touchscreen and keeps them held in frame. It tracks a person up to 10 metres away, and if the subject briefly leaves frame, reacquires them within 2 seconds.
Tracking also supports single-vehicle and single-pet scenarios, though DJI notes it works best with one clear subject rather than crowded, overlapping, or fast-erratic scenes. That is worth knowing before relying on it for a complex shot.
The Electronic Briefcase Handle
Included in the Combo, the redesigned briefcase handle enables intuitive single-handed operation, with a joystick and buttons controlling both gimbal and camera for creative low or side angles without a second hand on the rig.
Fast Setup and Vertical Shooting
- Switch to vertical shooting with no extra accessories, the gimbal handles the rotation natively
- Balance faster with fine-tuning knobs and Teflon-enhanced interlayers, cutting friction during positioning
- Charge fully in around 60 minutes, a 60% speed increase over the previous generation
- Run for approximately 14 hours per charge on the standard battery

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the RS 5 and the RS 5 Combo?
Both share the same gimbal. The Combo adds the BG33 Battery Grip, the RS Enhanced Intelligent Tracking Module, the Electronic Briefcase Handle, and a carrying case. If you already balance manually and don't need touchscreen tracking, the gimbal alone is a genuine option.
How much payload does the RS 5 support?
Up to 3kg (6.6lbs), covering mainstream mirrorless camera and lens combinations. Peak motor torque is up 50% over the RS 4 for extra stability margin in fast movement.
How does the touchscreen tracking work?
Tap a subject directly on the gimbal's touchscreen and it holds them in frame, tracking a person up to 10 metres and reacquiring within 2 seconds if they briefly leave. It works best with a single, clear subject rather than crowded or overlapping scenes.
Is it compatible with Blackmagic cameras?
No. The RS 5 is not compatible with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro or other Pocket Cinema Camera models. It is compatible with the Tilta Advanced Ring for extended lens control.
How long does the battery last?
Approximately 14 hours per charge, and a full charge takes around 60 minutes, a 60% speed increase over the previous generation.
Should I buy the RS 5 or the RS 4 Pro?
The RS 5 carries 3kg and includes touchscreen tracking in the Combo. The RS 4 Pro carries up to 4.5kg for heavier cinema camera setups. Call us with your exact camera and lens and we will confirm which fits.
Does it come with a warranty?
Yes. All new, sealed DJI products from Drone Safe Store carry a full 24-month warranty.
