Chauvet Professional Maverick Force 2 Profile: Touring-Class 580W CMY Yoke Spot
The Chauvet Professional Maverick Force 2 Profile is a fully featured, lightweight 580W LED yoke profile designed for precision control in broadcast, touring, and theatrical environments. Its 6.8° to 55.9° motorized zoom, dual rotating gobo wheels, and CMY + CTO color mixing system deliver broad creative control with pixel-level precision.
At the heart of the fixture is a crisp 7055K white LED source producing 20,856 lumens of output, paired with two slot-n-lock rotating gobo wheels, a color wheel with CTB and CRI filters, and a motorized iris, focus, and frost. Its powerful framing system offers four independently controlled blades with dual-axis movement and 120° rotation, giving designers precise beam shaping tools for dynamic looks or theatrical cuts.
Full connectivity is built-in, with support for DMX, sACN, Art-Net, W-DMX, and RDM, plus a USB port for firmware updates and menu preset sync. The fixture also includes selectable PWM frequencies up to 15,000 Hz, ensuring flicker-free operation for film and TV applications.
Real-World Applications and Lighting Roles:
- Theatrical spotlighting with motorized zoom and iris control
- Broadcast lighting with CRI filter and flicker-free dimming
- Touring use with Powerkon IP65 and omega rigging
- Framing projection with two gobo wheels and precision shuttering
- Pixel-based looks for concerts, ballrooms, and house of worship installs
Where This System Excels
- Advanced Framing: 4-blade shutter system with full 120° rotation and dual-axis control per blade.
- Touring-Ready Zoom: Wide 6.8° to 55.9° range with motorized focus and iris.

- W-DMX for wireless integration
Fixture Navigation: Includes a battery-backed full-color display with auto-orientation, three preset banks for shop-wide uniform setup, and a USB port for fast software uploads.
Fine-resolution control is provided via 16-bit processing for pan, tilt, dimmer, and zoom, ensuring ultra-smooth transitions and accurate positional recall in high-precision cue stacks.
Optical System & LED Output in the Maverick Force 2 Profile
The Maverick Force 2 Profile utilizes a powerful 580W cool white LED engine with a calibrated 7055K color temperature and 50,000-hour average lifespan. Designed for tour-grade output, it delivers 39,000 source lumens and 20,856 lumens of actual fixture output. At its narrowest beam angle of 6.8°, it produces a sharp 51,865 lux at 5 meters, while still outputting 1,648 lux at its maximum 55.9° spread.
- Beam Control: Motorized zoom from 6.8° to 55.9° with consistent flat-field projection
- High CRI Mode: Optional CRI filter boosts rendering from 70.8 to 89.3 for broadcast and theatrical use
- PWM Frequency Selection: Ranges from 600 Hz to 15,000 Hz for flicker-free camera use
This robust optical package is ideal for arenas, broadcast stages, and large-format gobo projection environments.
Advanced Color Mixing & Gobo Systems
The fixture’s integrated CMY + CTO color mixing system allows for seamless transitions across a vast chromatic spectrum. A dedicated color wheel adds 7 additional options including CRI and CTB filters for broadcast-specific use cases.
- Gobo Wheel 1: 7 rotating, interchangeable, slot-n-lock glass gobos (25.5 mm outer / 20 mm image)
- Gobo Wheel 2: 7 rotating, interchangeable, slot-n-lock glass gobos (25.5 mm outer / 18.5 mm image)
- Framing Shutter System: 4 blades with dual-axis control and 120° module rotation for precision beam shaping
This combination supports complex aerial effects, crisp logo projection, and tightly contoured theatrical looks.
DMX Channel Modes & Control Options
The Maverick Force 2 Profile is engineered with protocol flexibility and multiple channel personalities. It supports DMX, Art-Net, sACN, W-DMX, and RDM for full networked control in high-pressure environments.
- DMX Modes: 33-channel and 50-channel personalities
- Art-Net / sACN: Same 33ch and 50ch mappings for easy patch migration
- RDM Support: Full addressing, status reporting, and remote mode recall over DMX
These traits ensure the fixture integrates seamlessly into arena rigs, broadcast networks, and hybrid control environments.
Precision Movement & Beam Control Features
Engineered for fast, accurate motion, the Maverick Force 2 Profile includes 540° pan and 270° tilt with selectable range limits and position correction logic. Beam shaping is accomplished with a suite of onboard tools:
- Motorized Zoom & Focus: Beam control from tight projection to wide wash framing
- Motorized Iris: For tight beam control and gobo enhancement
- Frost Filter: Softens edge for frost wash or hybrid gobo/atmosphere blends
- 5-Facet Rotating Prism: Adds multi-image layering with independent rotation speed
This full suite supports everything from corporate gobo projection to EDM aerial effects and theatrical framing.
Fixture Housing, Power, and Shop Workflow Tools
Weighing just 57.3 lbs, the Force 2 Profile uses a compact flame-retardant polymer housing with front and rear rigging options. Designed for multi-environment tours and venue installs, it includes:
- IP20 Housing: Optimized for dry indoor installs or roadcase deployment
- Seetronic IP65 Powerkon Input: Locking AC with rugged tour-grade strain relief
- 5 ft Power Cable: Edison to IP65 included
- Auto-Rotating OLED Display: Battery backup and orientation-aware
- 3 Fan Modes: ECO, Auto, and Full with onboard noise profiles as low as 25.1 dB(A)
Setup tools like preset sync and upload via USB make this an ideal option for rental fleets and fast-turnaround environments.
How to Deploy the Maverick Force 2 Profile in the Field
The Chauvet Professional Maverick Force 2 Profile is optimized for rapid deployment in touring rigs, theatrical grids, and permanent venue installs. Its form factor, power connectivity, and integrated mounting features support a wide range of applications.
- Truss Mounting: Use the included omega bracket with CTC-50HC or CTC-50HCN clamps to secure the fixture to truss pipes in standard or inverted orientation.
- Case Storage & Touring: The compact footprint and lightweight build (57.3 lbs) make this unit roadcase-friendly and suitable for quick load-ins using pro-grade flight cases.
- Power Connection: Connect via the included 5 ft locking Seetronic Powerkon IP65 cable (Edison plug) for secure power delivery during rigging or performance.
