You are conservatively talking about 350lb+ of lift potential there. If they managed to keep it under 55 lbs (which they won't with big cameras - assuming that's what they are going for), it's a T/W ~ 6. Which is absurd.
I am sure there are other applications for it, but it's just overkill...
Looks pretty good. What did you change for the horizon locked? We have had that issue with some of the alexmos products as well. Generally the advanced cal helps, but not all of the time.
One question i have is if this is really sized for a RED? I have the 550d with that same lens, and the...
Thanks, Booma. I'll email Kim
Looks like they have mounted the RED upside down too. Wonder if that is for balance. With their "Epic" mount on the standard AV200, it hangs from the top 1/4-20s nicely.
Does this controller have options to run two motors on one axis? The gimbal you are advertising has two motors on tilt. I am assuming that you are using one controller only?
Curious to see your Epic gimbal
Very interesting. 70amps seems like overkill though? I mean, most of us aren't even close to drawing that on a per motor basis on our multirotor!
Will you be selling those motors separately for those of us experimenting with our own designs?
Do you have any thrust vs watts curves that you can share? Even a few points would be nice. Those are the 29" props, correct?
What alexa are you designing the gimbal for? The XT is 20lbs with lens and very long. The M is a bit nicer but you still have the big module on a umbilical.
Sorry to bring back an old thread, but what lenses are you using with the BMPCC? That seems to me to be the main "issue" because of the crop factor. Though with a metabones speedbooster, you are approaching the GH3 crop factor.
The footage out of this thing is gorgeous though
I can attest that even with "just" 4x 3515 and 13" props the disco with our early prototype mounts was by far the fastest multirotor I have ever flown. And it was smooth as heck.
I am with Steve (obviously :)) on this one. Reduction has a lot of advantages, and the Alexmos definitely works with it. All of the gimbals I use have it. Our three axis we are releasing shortly with have yaw and roll reduction. You do lose a bit of reaction speed, but it's not much and...
