I use this on my DJI Osmo pocket while driving in my tow truck. Very noisy environment yet still picks up my voice very well. Slows me to talk to the camera while driving and having face tracking and while outside and talking to the camera while loading a vehicle.
Awesome quality, ready to go out of the box

The only thing I wish they had was more dB level options. It has 3 but that combined with input settings on my camera the recordings have sounded flawless. The storage back they provide is too small but that can be fixed easily

I was extremely impressed at how compact it is, as my needs require portability. I was equally impressed with its performance. Im extremely happy with this. I have one hiccup, I am so happy with this product that Id hate to say anything negative but the wind protectors (Dead Cats), I wish they locked on better but def not a deal breaker. Ill figure out another way to lock them on.
Good idea

I was buying a second set and noticed they have it in white. I bought it because it would be easier to tell them apart and the unit is so small that the color doesn't really matter so much. The white cable I bought with it came in handy - we are a yoga studio and some instructors wear white clothes. Otherwise same as the black unit and we have had good experience with it.

For being such a small device, this kit is great for those who need a wireless mic system, for quick and useful recordings.
Good overall. Some small issues. See the test video

Overall the mic worked well. The mic transmitted further than I expected with little interference. However, I was not able to plug the charger into the computer to charge the unit. I had to use a phone charger plugged into the wall to charge without issue. The windshield falls off easily. I am still happy with my purchase. https://youtu.be/xK5DNkNoN68

Great little addition to my Rode family of microphones and wireless filmmaker kits. I know this will always be in my camera bag now. Rode is great! I broke my cold shoe adapter from my filmmakers kit. I reached out to them and they send me a pair of replacement with no charge and was shipped all the way from Australia.

I picked up a few of these as backups for my Sennheiser belt packs, especially for areas where I've got a lot of RF interference. Turns out these are fantastic and now are basically my main packs for shoots. I'm pairing them with a Voice Technologies lav, but the built in mic sounds great too. This is seriously a must have in any camera bag.

I like many purchased this as soon as it was announced at NAB. I sold my larger, older Rode wireless setup for this and couldn't be happier. In my tests/use, I've got a signal at 60-70ft facing to/away from the transmitter with no drop outs. As mostly a single cam op, these are ridiculously useful and pack up nicely in my kit.
Simplicity itself

In the famous words of Steve Jobs, "it just works." Simple, solid, and even inside with obstructions I have been pleasantly surprised by the range. Highly recommended.

Clean audio that is easy to hide. I am using it with a Sennheiser ME 2-II Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone. They produce perfect sound every time with minimal processing
Great Mic that is Incomplete

Battery life is great, the sound is fantastic, the wireless part is great too. The two main complaints for us is that the mic doesn't attach to a collared shirt well and the dead cat cover NEVER stays attached. It is a great piece. It solves 90 percent of the issues. It is just not complete. Yes, I would buy again. It is a good piece.

I bought these (black were sold out but I assume they work just as well) to upgrade the audio for my self-tapes. They work amazingly well, exactly as I wanted, & super simple to use with a headphone jack mic. Highly recommended. WARNING: If planning to use with an iPhone, must also buy RODE SC7 TRS to TRRS cable.

Super small and well designed. It solved a problem that I have been working on for a long time. How to get a wireless mic to work with Flimic pro running on the Samsung Note 9. The system is very lightweight, well designed and works perfectly. Recommended because it is smaller than the Sennheiser and cheaper.
Works great with GH5

Been using this for a month now and it works nicely for budget productions. I guess a sound designer might not agree, but when I do run and gun productions by myself this is great. Just remember to start the day with fully charged batteries or makes sure you charge them at lunch break:)

Great little RX/TX for performance, live stream, or even vlogging. You can even hook it up to the Rde NTG go shotgun mic to turn it into a wireless shotgun mic. works well with zoom H6. Love this thing.
still messing with the sound levels

I am a complete beginner. For me this has involved more than just plug & go. The first time I recorded the sound peaked and was sounding loud. Then I turned down the gain. After more research found out I also needed to adjust the on camera volume before hitting record. Any additional tips welcome! Hopefully I will get the hang of it soon.
Tiny size, big punch!

This small footprint makes it so much easier to film on the go. Since the battery life is around 7 hours it is perfect for all shooting! I will be picking up a second one in the near future.
