Introduction

The Bescor MP-101 is a motorized tripod head that in its original form is controlled by a four-button switch connected by cable.
It's a popular and well-built device that is crying out for wireless control.

If you buy the very expensive CamRanger (~350 USD) for wireless control of your camera, there is an (expensive) accessory available that allows you to also control the Bescor MP-101. Many people love the CamRanger, but I find the system unstable, and when it hangs the server needs to be restarted, which is pretty annoying when it's on a mast 12m up in the air.

An alternative (and better) solution for wirelessly controlling a camera is DDServer which is donationware and runs on the same hardware as the CamRanger (the TP-Link MR3040, which costs around 40 USD when bought without the CamRanger firmware installed). I also find the interface of DSLRDashboard much better than that on the CamRanger.
You need to be (or know) a little bit of a nerd to install the DDServer firmware on the TPlink MR3040, but you're getting a better product and saving 300 USD.
However, DSLRDashboard can't control the Bescor MP-101 head, which is crucial for the mast jobs that I do, which is why I was really happy when I found this simple solution to wirelessly controlling it.

Parts

IC 2262 / 2272 4-channel remote-control kit (~ 4 USD on ebay)
7-pin DIN plug and wire (Or you can cut the plug off the wired remote)

The IC2262/2272 is a wonderful system comprising a key fob with 4 buttons, and a tiny circuit board with 7 pins - power and ground plus a pin for each of the buttons (plus a pin that goes high when any of the buttons is pressed). And it needs the same 5v supply that the Bescor head uses, so you don't need an extra battery.

Construction

Decide which buttons you want to control which movements (I chose A=Left, B=Right, C=Up, D=Down))

Connect the corresponding pins to the 7-pin DIN plug.(Leave the VT pin on the board, and the speed pin on the DIN plug unconnected)

And that's it ! Couldn't be simpler.

But it can be more complicated, if you want, so I have actually put an arduino microprocessor between the 2272 and the head so that I can do more complicated things in the future (eg programmed panorama stitching).

But that's a story for another day (see below).

Another day :The range of these remote controls is normally around 100m, but I found that was reduced significantly when I had the Bescor motor switched on, presumably due to electromagnetic noise interfering with the radio signals. The device still worked, but at longer distances the motor ran intermittently when a button was held constantly.
For this reason, plus future features, I added an arduino microcontroller between the receiver and the Bescor head, whose job was to create a one second pulseeach time a short signal was detected, thus smoothing out the noise (at the expense of the loss of a few degrees of positioning precision).

The wiring is pretty simple : Pins A,B,C, and D on the receiver are connected to Arduino input pins 8,9,10, and 11. VT is connected to pin 12, while ground and 5v are common to the Bescor, the receiver and the Arduino. Output pins 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the Arduino are connected to the 7-pin DIN going to the Bescor.I also added an LED to pin 5, as a confirmation lamp.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Forensic Videographer from Awful This remote control is designed to fail after a month or so of use. I cannot tell you how many I have had to replace, regardless of the care I have taken to package and transport it between uses. Typically it will fail by panning in one horizontal direction and not another, or simply fail to pan up and down altogether, or simply totally fail. It doesn't matter how carefully I handle it or how carefully I plug it into the motorized pan head. It's designed to fail. The joystick-like panner control button is clearly designed to fail.

This is a product that is begging to be redesigned. Even at $$it is a total ripoff. Rated 4 out of 5 by Videographer Steve from Wired remote for Bescor MP-101 Pan/Tilt For an inexpensive pan/tilt product, this is a great unit. We have three of them at our church. The unit this one replaced worked well for about six years before it malfunctioned. The pan/tilt head this remote operates is still working great, as are the other two complete setups. We use the cameras mounted on these pan/tilt heads at every service, including special events, which equates to approximately 180 to 190 times annually.

The MP-101 is an excellent buy. The remote was inexpensive to replace.

You wouldn't use the MP-101 in a professional setting; it's a bit unrefined with it's jerky too fast motion even on the slowest speed, but for our purposes, it works fine. You can't beat the price. Rated 2 out of 5 by Joel from Remote Control not up to the level of the MP-101 The Bescor MP-101 is a stellar pan and tilt head. It handles our 5 lb. Sony Camcorder well. The remote is another thing. It doesnt operate sal that smoothly and the speed control is the flimsiest slider Ive ever seen.

Ours broke after about a dozen uses and was stuck on the fastest speed. After only owning it for a couple of months and using it only one a week, I called Bescore, they told me I should probably just buy an extra one at almost half the price of the head.

The MP-101 has a pan range of 340° and a tilt range of 30°. This compact and lightweight motorized head is useful for mounting and controlling the pan and tilt of a camera where automatic or remote operation is preferred.
