Well, the title says it all...
I've stuck with photohigher for a year hoping they would come through on their Skyline, but I'm done waiting and tired of less than satisfactory results from their equipment. I'm not ready to wait for brushless gimbals on the high end side. So, I'm strongly considering moving to a Cinestar 2 or 3 axis gimbal with Radians. This is going on my Flexacopter - one of the most solid and reliable airframes I've flown in the last 18 months.
So my questions are...
1. Is the Cinestar gimbal and Radians a good choice? Those who are flying them, please - I want to hear real-world answers from you!
2. Sometimes I fly with a camera pilot, sometimes I don't. I honestly think I can achieve 80% of the shots without a camera guy. But, do you think the third axis is worth doing?
3. Where is the best place to buy (I'm in the US) the equipment? I've seen Quadrocopter sell pre-built CS gimbals with the Radians.
Thanks in advance to this awesome community of MR experts! I've been on this thread for about a year and have enjoyed the resource and authority on MR it has come to be!
