Newssooter NAB 2015: Flowcine 2 Axis Puppeteer from Dan Chung on Vimeo.
Flowcine were showing a more advanced version of their Puppeteer system that features a 2nd axis. The second axis is used to eliminate errors in both the roll and tilt axis, providing a smoother ride for your gimbal. It is designed to perform fluently with out disturbing motion and vibrations.
The Puppeteer comes in two versions, the one axis, and the two axis version. The one axis system helps the user tilt their rig without effort, almost at the centre of gravity, getting rid of the string force you’d normaly get with the Easyrig – gimbal set-up. You mount the Puppeteer on top of your gimbal, adjust the balance so it’s centered, and hook it up on your Easyrig. The Puppeteer ships with a smaller steel hook that replaces the original Easyrig hook. This is to save vertical space, so you can go higher with the rig.
The 2 axis version will be available soon.
