Curious if anyone has made a 3d printed housing for the focus bug transmitter?
Would be cool to have a little housing for the bugs to protect them or even a little clip on the back of the housing to put on actors/talent.
Thanks!

Hey folks, just wanted to raise an interesting bug I found recently.
When using the cineRT with the hi5, and cforce RF motor as the motor controller, there was seemingly RF interference causing the hi5 to fail to upload lens files.
At first I presumed it was a hi5 bug, but I noticed when the focusbug was disconnected the lens files uploaded fine. I then tried setting the system up again but with the cineRT kept completely separate from the chain (no connection to the motors, only a power input) and the issue came back. I changed the RF channel of the cineRT and the problem was resolved - I believe I was on channel 2B on the cineRT. And I believe channel 8 on the hi5 but can’t confirm!
I’ve got the cineRT RF compatibility chart which I always use but it’s either wrong or there’s a weird RF…
Thanks Laird! Worth noting I just realised on on the previous focusbug firmware - so that could be a factor! Apologies I should’ve mentioned that before but didn’t realise👍🏻

Hello and Happy New Year! It feels great to welcome in 2025.
It goes without saying that last year presented many challenges for our industry; however, all signs seem to point toward busier times ahead.
In 2024 the Focusbug Community expanded beyond having over 2000 Cine RT Systems in the field working on a wide range of film and digital features, television series, independent productions and more. This year we look forward to releasing the OV1 Overlay Module and FLEA Serial Interface Module in the spring, and to announcing new products in development.
Please stay connected with us through our news updates, mailing list, and contact options at focusbug.com. We continue to be amazed by all the love on Instagram and strive to push your posts and stories back out into the community on the daily.
For those wishing to dive deeper into our international user…
Sadly the "permanent" Discord invite link to the Focusbug Community turned out to be temporary! We've set another link and will see if it lasts: https://discord.gg/hCa28S7MXj

Partially solved (see below)
I hope you guys can help me! I contacted cMotion, but they are already on vacation.
unfortunately we had a horrible shoot yesterday because my CPro One connection kept shutting down irregularly.
My 1AC and I couldn't really pinpoint the problem.
Symptoms:
Lens Data was suddenly gone, but focus could still be adjusted, zoom no longer, no camera control either.
After a very helpful phone call with cmotion support I can say that we had at least two issues parallel maybe even three. 1. the data license was not installed correctly. This was due to a coding change in the license file I received. It is possible to install this file “half”, so the manual says to check this in the “About” menu of the cPro after installation. A downgrade to 5.0 may help, or a rewritten file containing all the other files. I managed to install it eventually by trying 7 times on 6.02.
2. loss of contact to a motor leads to the assumption that either the LBUS socket of the cPro or the cForce is broken. It often occurs on older models that do not have the new upgraded “movable” socket. Do not use L-shaped elbow cables. This is the reason why cMotion does not sell them!
(3.) Even 2 motors at 14.4V 10A can be very current hungry during calibration or fast runs. Always use two current inputs at both ends of the chain.
