That's super smooth - well done Kloner!

Ordered it. I'll post pics when I get it sorted.

Good call, Stacky. I'm thinking about one of these that Mike Fortin at Hoverfly mentioned to me: http://www.pelican.com/cases_detail.php?Case=1770

I have a Vulcan that I need a travel case for. The Vulcan folds up like a Skyjib. Any recommendations? Thanks, Ben Rowland

I've got some brand new, unused, FreeFly vibration dampener o-rings that I'd like to sell for 50% off (my loss, your gain). I've got a bag of red (standard) and a bag of blue (medium). I'm selling them both for a total of $17 (shipping included within USA). Send me a message if you want them...

Ian, thanks for the feedback! I think we will need to give the Mantis arms a shot.

Maybe a battery issue?

It works very well. No shakes. The bars easily attach to the frame. The Freefly dampers aren't used.

Thanks for posting this. How does it fly? We've got a Vulcan and we're very happy with it. We are considering adding the Mantis arms. Thoughts? Thanks! all the best, Ben

We've only worked with direct drive at this point. We are considering trying belt drive on the pan axis. I'll report back on the results.

Welcome to the forum!

Sorry I wasn't more help. I use Futaba.

Best to give Hoverfly a call and see what they recommend. all the best, Ben

That is a great demonstration of the power of lens choice. A telephoto lens compresses the appearance of depth and makes the subjects look like they are closer together than they really are. You can use this to accomplish some fun stunt shots. Say you have a shot where you want to make it...

You just need 3 available channels, one for each axis.

We will definitely stick with the brushless setup. Once you go brushless, you can't go back! Less stabilization needed. We hope that once we have the pan axis on brushless, we'll be closer to the point where we will hardly ever post-stabilize. Dreaming of that day...

You have to contact Allied Drones to order the Echo mount for the Vulcan. It ships with 4 small sleeves that slide over the 12mm rods to turn them into 15mm rods at the attach points. The brushless motors get a bit hot with the Epic. Only one motor on the tilt for now. An Epic is a bit...

Here ya go... A shot from a recent shoot. The new rig is still a work in progress.

In the world of servo driven gimbals, the Radian / Cinestar 3-axis combo is one of the best. It's reliable and it works. Brushless gimbals are a definite step up in stability. The motors react faster and more accurately than the servos can. But right now, the tech isn't as mature. The...

The system I purchased was customized to work with the Vulcan and the Cinestar. Our R/C Rotors gimbal is attached to the top half of a 3 axis Cinestar gimbal. So we have a bit of a Frankenstein. If you aren't sure what to get, I'd recommend giving Allied Drones a call or send them an email.
