    I bought this rig in 2017. It’s has the 24V upgrade and also the newer Quick release plate (it’s now the same as the SRH head)

    I also had the Mini BNC replaced by regular BNC’s ont the side of the rig.

    Getting ready for T2 so this one is going away  to a new home!

    The GOOD NOTES:

    The rig has always been FLAWLESS in every condition. I never had any hiccups or power down . It’s been serviced at FOMA in 2020 for the upgrade .

     

    The fine print:

    ***-Transvideo monitor is beaten up, first gen, some image burned in, can’t record but the essential is there , I always have an image.

    That’s why there’s this little FOTGA monitor added : it’s cheap and bright , I would advise you get a better monitor anyway but the two monitors included are working ok.

    -There is (4) Joysticks included ; two are FOR PARTS ONLY. The one on the sled is 100% working and you have a brand new spare. You will notice the one on the rig has a Playstation grommet on top : I found it much easier to operate with this on. You can remove it if needed.

    -The up/down feature that brings the ring higher or lower on the  top 4 posts sometime get sticky , you have to remove the brakes completely to move up and down. I don’t know if Arri has addressed that problem with newer rigs but since I move this ring very rarely , I never had it fixed.

    -No cases included but the head foam that goes into an SBK case will be included.

    -No batteries included for the rig , only for the Fotga monitor

    -One of the (3) joystick to head cables (bnc ,power and data) is making the rig creep up while powered on, it’s moving so slowly you barely notice it but still very annoying , so please consider you have (2) cables and one spare for PARTS.

    -You will need a docking bracket , I advise getting a Jerry Hill . I had the ARRI at first and hated it so much I sold it and got the Jerry Hill one : Both Jerry Hill docking rings are included in the package . You just need the docking bracket. If you want to go Arri , just remove both JH rings and you are good to go.

    -also including a home made “sos plate/cat griller” adapted from parts that were removed from ring when I upgraded to the new quick release plate.

     

    Please ask any questions you might have . I have been operating this rig for 5 years and know it by heart.

  11. Time for an upgrade?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I would definitely go digital ; Focus puller are now used to lens mapping , automatic calibration. You might get a couple dollars from the Bartechs but most of the ones still on sets are probably buried in cases as backups of backups .... They once were great units and I used them too ,as most here , but I have not seen one in years on set . Time to move on . 

  16. FS: Arri Maxima chopped in half with Veracity Wheels

    in Steadicam Marketplace - For Sale

    Posted

    Hi,

    This is a unique item here , up for sale is my beloved Maxima that I literally chopped in half : I am a Trinity owner operator and wanted a stabilized head to go on the dolly and cranes super fast from Trintiy . Since the Maxima shares all of the electronics, cables , and technology , the decision was simple. Sadly , the Maxima is designed to be a gimbal with both handles on each side. This prevents the pan to go anywhere if it's not hand operated. I took the thing to my machinist and we took away one side of the handles , we now have almost 300 degrees of pan. Problem solved. The tilt is still not very convincing but I would say it does the job 80% of the time . I really loved the thing but it's time to move to the big sister : I am getting an SRH head next week . Time to let this one go . 

    You will get: ( in the video , you see accessories not included , please refer to this list only )

    •Modified Maxima head with gold mount plate (transport case included)

    •mitchell base on the bottom and mitchell mount on top

    •Short QL Plate Gen2 for SRH-3, TRINITY, MAXIMA with two set screws

    •(2) power cables (Arri mini and RED )

    •rods and plates to go back to original mode(*)

    •Veracity wheels in perfect condition

    •JETI(arri) and Spectrum radio (, MOVI and LETUS gimbals)

    •Wheels Dtap power cable, cable to link both wheels, cable for upgrades, PPM cable

    •Maxima manual

    •Veracity Wheels Manual

    YOU WILL NEED : a laptop with FOMA software to make changes to the rig. I am keeping my laptop for my trinity . 

    The fine prints :

    The Spektrum radio module with the wheels was never tested , I bought the wheels with that module on, but changed it right away withthe JETI one. Price reflects this.

    The top Maxima pan motor is unplugged from the board : while we disassembled the rig , both motors were off sync and fighting each other when put back together. After a call to FOMA , they were super helpful and we decided to unplug one of the motors (the top one since the weight of the rig is at the bottom). It does not affect at all the performance of the rig. I have never experienced lag or anyhting related to having one motor less . 

    (*)This modification to the frame was never intended to be reverted back to normal : we deliberately decided to do it once and used locktite to make sure the rig would be rock solid . Of course, if you REALLY wanted to go back , I guess it could be done but be warned this will be a venture.

    Since we have messed with the integrity of the unit, messed with the motors, you understand there is NO WARRANTY at all on this particular piece of equipment.  

    The unit is 100% working right now.

    ASKING 11000 $USD

    Payment will be thru wire or credit card . Paypal is accepted using friends option . Sale in Canada will have taxes applied to the sale .

    Shipping thru FEDEX on your account . 

    The Veracity wheels will be sold with the Maxima only.
