So I've been watching a lot of footage shot with these systems. take for example. is it just me or does anyone else notice like, small movements.. jittering in the camera movement? Like it just doesn't feel organic like a steadicam. Am I losing it? check 2:26-2:32 in that video.

I got to try one of these out at Alex Buono's Visual Storyteller seminar last month. Definitely a cool piece of gear. One thing though - it is a complex piece of equipment that does require skill to setup and use (at least in it's present form).

That's a crazy find. No footage from that thing though.

Also, no data provided on how the rig is controlled, whether it has a single-operator mode or not...who knows how well it works.

The vendor is a big supplier of RC parts, probably can purchase parts at the lowest price possible.

The vendor replied "you need one gimbal controller card, then adjust it, to make it work."

Edit: They sent a PDF explaining assembly details, email me if you want a copy.
