Tilta Nucleus-M II Accessories Announced – Range Expander, Mounting Bracket, and More

Ahead of NAB 2026, Tilta has announced a whole new range of accessories for its Nucleus-M II wireless camera and lens control system. These include a Range Expansion Module for long-range operation, a mounting bracket, a larger-diameter focus wheel, and a new 0.8MOD motor gear.

Introduced at NAB 2025, the 2nd-generation Tilta Nucleus M wireless lens control system (our review here) represents a major update over its predecessor, with improvements on both the hardware and software sides, offering a smarter FIZ unit, 4-axis control, lens mapping, and more. Additionally, Tilta is building a whole expandable ecosystem around it, as testified by the recent launch of its Nucleus Auto Focus Adapter.

I’ve personally upgraded my kit to the Nucleus-M II and never looked back once, although there’s still some room for improvement, which is why Tilta is now coming up with a few new add-ons. Let’s take a look!

Tilta Nucleus-M II accessories – More range and flexibility

To start off, Tilta has designed a Range Expansion Module that attaches directly to the left-side interface of the FIZ hand unit. This accessory extends the working range of the system to a base distance of 579m/1,900ft, but, according to Tilta, it can also reach 1.493m/4,900ft in open environments. This is great for drone, car chase, and other dynamic scenes, as long as you’re not limited by the range of your wireless video system.

The Range Expansion Module takes the same NP-F550 batteries that power the FIZ unit and hand grips, but also has a dual-direction USB-C port. This can be used to supply power to the module itself or to provide power to an external USB-C monitor, for example. The module seems to offer a comfortable grip and has a built-in top NATO interface for accessories.

Talking about rigging accessories, Tilta has come up with its own Mounting Bracket for the FIZ hand unit that offers multiple 1/4”-20 and 3/8”-16 mounting points for accessories, as well as a top NATO rail. The Mounting Bracket is made of aluminum and effectively acts as a cage for your FIZ controller.

Moving forward, we have a new Extended Focus Wheel that is larger compared to the original one, thus ensuring a better grip and improved visibility of focus markers. On top of this, it’s compatible with ARRI standard marking disks, which is great even if you use the Nucleus-M II as a backup unit to your ARRI system.

Lastly, Tilta offers a new Extended Mod Motor Gear designed specifically for cinema lenses with short gear clearance. This 0.8MOD gear is easy to install by turning a screw and helps avoid conflicts between the lens, the motor, or other components.
