This side handle slides onto the base of the half and full Tiltaing camera cages. A battery port on the bottom of the handle allows you to use a Sony F970 battery to power the Nucleus Nano motor via the 8V Micro-USB power output. A 12V DC output is also integrated into the handle.

A built-in finger wheel allows you to control the Nucleus Nano motor through a wired connection and a run/stop button allows you to control the record start/stop function of your camera through an optional Nucleus-Nano R/S cable (for cameras that support this function).

The handle also has an integrated Samsung T5 SSD card holder.
