I have upgraded my sled and am putting my A2 w/ volt up for sale. Sled is set up in V-Mount and runs in either 12v or 24v. The sled does not come with a monitor as I'm using it on my new sled. No vest in this sale. Including 2 monitor yokes, an 8" and a 6" depending on what monitor you want. You will need to buy the monitor mount blocks from Tiffen or a third party to mount your monitor. To sweeten the deal, I'm willing to let my G50x arm go as well. At this point, I'm not wanting to split up the package. This has been a great rig and it was my first rig that I bought brand new. I upgraded to the M2 simply for a modular sled. Sled was sent to Tiffen in Nov. of 2022 to get checked out for a new buyer and hasn't been used since. Minor wear on the sled and volt but does not affect operating. This is a great starter rig or can be configured as a light weight running rig, or just your last rig you'll buy. Buyer pays shipping. I will ship nationwide at buyers expense. $24,000.

Hello Steadi Forum, I am selling my Movi Pro package, complete with remote wheels, Ready Rig Vega, and the Rig Wheels Cloud Mount Pro vehicle mount. I have spent roughly $22K building this package. Offloading it for $12K. The Movi was sent in to Freefly in June of 2022 for a once over and to replace the screen. They also replaced the molex, pan and flipper cables, and gave it a new tilt motor cover. All repair services from Freefly Systems include: cleaning, full calibration, sequencing through their production validations tests to verify function and quality. It's been used less 5 times since then and works flawlessly. Sale includes 1A Alpha Wheels which can also work with the R2, Movi and a few other gimbals. Also included are Ignite offsets and Ignite battery plates that allow the use of DJI TB50 batteries. Full list below. I'm in Dallas, TX and can ship nationwide at buyers expense. Pickup is preferred since there are a number of cases and it would be cumbersome to ship. Again, offloading this package for $12K USD. At this point I am not breaking up the package.

Is your rig still available?

I also have the Volt setup. When I rotate the gimbal left and right under weight, the sled pans as well even when my hand is not on the gimbal sleeve. I’m shooting in Utah and the temp yesterday morning was 9 degrees on set. Thinking it has something to do with the cold but I have been using a hairdryer to heat it up and seems better but it’s still not “loosey goosey” when I move the the gimbal left or right. The sled essentially pans by itself when I move the gimbal. Any thoughts?

Has anybody ever had vibration issues while in low mode? They are micro vibrations that happen during a low mode shot. They always happen for me. Operating the rig doesn't feel any different for me and I don't feel the vibrations physically, but it is evident in the footage. Could it be a volt/gimbal issue?

Hey Geoffrey, I have this combo and I have never been let down with the Archer2 and G50X. I have flown a lot of Alexa Classics with heavy panavision lenses while having an oboard battery on the cam and my arm still had plenty of room for lift adjustment. Strip what you can off the heavy cams and you'll be fine. Also having power cables to fly different cams is great. I recently flew an XT with some heavy lenses and I had the AC take off the top handle and eyepiece. I have lots of Alexa Mini and Red jobs and I seem to always add more to the cam to make it heavier. The arm performs better with some weight on it. I have never had to say no to a setup yet with this combo. Hope this helps.

Hello, I'm looking to rent a Wave 1 for 1 day in Palma De Mallorca. Seeing if there is an operator or rental house that has one somewhere in Spain.

Transvideo HD6 or 8

Does anybody know if the new Rainbow FHD will have a horizon level built in to the software?

Hello everybody, I am wanting to pull the trigger on the SBL RainbowHD after being around it the last few shoots. I am currently using the Marshall monitor that came with the Archer2. I have been searching around the forums and online and can't seem to find the answer to my question. I'd love to use the Archer2 yoke if possible to save some money, and I know Transvideo sells the dogbone attachments, but I'm unclear if they will work on the Rainbow 7", however I know they work with the HD6 and HD8. I was looking at their yokes on their website and it doesn't seem that the yoke tilts. The monitor tilts with the constant torque knobs, but from what I see it doesn't look like the yoke tilts. This would be a deal breaker. And I have looked at the cam jam, but I'm not entirely sure if their yoke works with the Rainbow 7". Any ideas as to what my best option would be utilizing the factory yoke of the Archer2? Any other advice. Thanks guys! Josh

Hi Ryan, I just purchased an Archer2 on March 11th. Dan Ikeda from Tiffen told me that prices were going up in April and to put in my order before then. He didn't specify why, but rather that prices were just increasing.

Thanks guys.

Just curious what the post diameter is on the Archer2. Can't seem to find any info on that specifically.

Thanks Jess. Much appreciated.

What is her direct email? Having trouble finding it on their site.

Thanks Victor

Just wanted to see if anybody has had trouble contacting WP Dolle for insurance. I have tried contacting Tonya twice over the last few weeks, left 2 messages and haven't heard anything back.

Thanks everybody for the feedback. This is very valuable to me as I'm looking to buy used.

And also, what is the process one would go about to see the item in person before purchase?
