Forgot to mention that the Flyer LE also has the same bearing housing,Delrin sleeve and yoke bearings. Only difference being the design of the handle. Very reminiscent of the SK and IIIa models.

For anyone who likes to tinker and modify, I thought I would share the new project and explain a few things. So the Scout was introduced in 2010 with a max cam weight of 18-19lbs. It held onto the single "rod" concept from the Pilot. The mount to the post is a lot beefier but the "rod" stayed the same size. Having a pilot myself and modifying it like crazy, I knew right away what I was going to do to the Scout. Get rid of said "rod". The one that came with my Scout had been a little overtightened and did not slide back and forth very well. So I wanted to figure out how to get my bottom electronics box and the rods for the battery onto it. Well I lucked out by having the old Pilot because I just used the "rod" from it, cut it down and used the 2 monitor mounts and 2 rod clamps to attach it to the base. I didn't want to cut the post like I did on the Pilot. It can all be put back to it's original state if ever I decide to sell it. I used a bigger Hammond box(1590C) to give myself a little more room to house all the wiring. Again I used a power board from a Camvate(Rolux) v mount distro plate. I run 14.8V for Dtap, 12V,5V and another HD SDI line. Benchmarked, the voltage is stable and as I am not running power to any camera's right now, I'm not too worried about my amperage. My JVC LS300 runs on its own batteries and I fly a 12K Ursa Mini with its own battery as well. My monitor runs on 12V and on the top stage I am able to power a wireless HD video transmitter and a follow focus. All in all, I would say it works just fine. Any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks.

Rever Stabilizer Reviews/ Thoughts
Fernando Cruz Júnior replied to Max Miles's topic in General Discussion
Hey guys, so I'm using the rever bundle for 7/8 months. I'm working in more sports and events area and I'm really happy with the system, the price is good and the material it worth it. I have been working with light and heavy rigs and the steadicam is 100% smoth on both. Fernando Cruz Júnior -

Ouch!! There would have to be a LOT of weight to do that. Even with a Vmount battery, you would still be safe for the bottom stage. And considering the Pilot is about 17 years old and those clamps are cast aluminum it could be due to age?? But if it was hit in just the right place that thing could snap easy. I've discontinued my Pilot as well!! Haha!! Did the set screw shear right through the carbon fiber?

Infrequent Flyer - Rebuild of a Steadicam Flyer
Bryan Bullard replied to Calum Tsang's topic in Steadi-Newbies
Interested to see more of this.... -
Just thought I'd update this topic a little. I recently purchased a nice used Scout with a Flyer arm. And of course I like to clean everything and make sure all is well with the mechanics. When I first pulled the rig out of the case I noticed right away that the gimbal was "bigger". Nice!! But after taking the rig apart and getting the gimbal off and disassembling it I realized it is just the same bearing housing as the Pilot and the Solo. Difference being a larger yoke and handle and a longer sleeve to accommodate the Delrin tube. As you can see in the pics there is no difference in the bearing housing. It uses the same yoke bearings as well. Food for thought I guess.....

My Artemis docking model is the old one, which is not at all comfortable compared to the new models that Arri has now. I think if I were you, I would use the Arri one with the Koon accessory, but it's a matter of taste. Both models (Arri & Tiffen) are good. Gus

For Sale is my Master arm. This arm can hold up to 65 lbs. Has the option to be detuned with a tool I include so you can change the range to support lower camera weights. I typically have it tuned so weight range is 25-55 but can be increased or decreased. Max weight range is 35-65 lbs without detuning the arm. I have an arm post for 3/4 but can also give you one for 5/8 sleds Located is Orange County, CA which is just south of Los Angeles. Can ship at cost $5000.00
