I am loving the Ronin gimbal but as a one man shop have the need for the thumb controller ASAP. There are gigs I cannot do with the full remote. Also would love to buy more QR mounts and an extra battery. What about an adapter for a steadicam arm? Lots of ways to use this amazing tool if the accessories were available! Anything else people could think of needing?

Oh its killer for sure! The thumb controller is a must,  and I'm surprised there hasn't been any talk about it whatsoever really.  

As for the steadicam arm,  there is a startup that is making some awesome accessories for the ronin.  Seems like they're working on alot of new stuff as well. They started out by making a quick release adapter so you can put the Ronin on tripods and anything else you can mount it to.  

Definitely worth checking it out. cinemilled.comwww.cinemilled.com

Hope that helps some.

Great to hear the thumb control is being worked on... Any ETA?

Also, I have the Cinemilled plate and tried to order the Steadicam adapter but cinemilled went unresponsive. Kinda weird as I want to give them money and have already purchased and received stuff. I think they bit off more than they could handle!

Cinemilled adapter are great and a must this days for film production but I hope Dji come with something simillar.
We all know that using RONIN on a professional environment without a vest with strong arms its impossible. (To heavy)
Cinemlilled come with a great idea. I really hope to see something like this come out from Dji.

I got the cinemilled adapter for it for possible rig and creative mounting. Setting it up as a secondary camera if I can get it balanced right.

I dont get why everyone says its heavy, then again my main is a BMCC with redrock rig, around 25-30 lbs generally. Something i did try out though when i was testing manually tuning it was briefcase mode. Wish you could lock it into briefcase mode because I could see shooting it all day in briefcase mode with it resting on my hip. Its real easy, even have room to hold the remote control.

Hell if you wanted to, you could move the other handle up to the top in briefcase mode so you have two handholds, use the supplied mount brackets one in the middle to hold power distributor and monitor, and the other mount bracket at the bottom. Just get a cheap chest pad rig support to screw into it and you'd be flyin hawaiin all day.

I have not found any thumb controller at DJI yet. Is it released or not...? DJI-Julain told us 2014-9-19 that it was on its way. Not sure I like third party alternatives for Ronin, but if DJI doesn't have it, have anyone any experience regarding these third-party thumb controllers?:
