Hola David This 2023 video showed the prototype, today's Steadicam AXIS with the Volt system. I don't know, if Tiffen will offer (or design/manufacture) a Volt version for the Zephyr, to be purchased separately.. My 2 cents

The Steadicam Axis is the first Steadicam system to incorporate Volt™ technology across the roll, tilt, and pan axes, providing an unprecedented level of stability and control. Featuring Academy Award® and Emmy® Award-winning Volt™ electronically assisted 3-axis stabilization technology, the Axis empowers operators to maintain direct, hands-on control of their framing while benefiting from advanced electronic assistance that enhances shot stability without sacrificing creative control. Designed for both new and experienced operators, the Axis makes professional camera movement more accessible than ever. With faster setup times, a wider range of motion, and a shallower learning curve than traditional gimbals, it offers efficiency, versatility, and freedom. Key time-saving features include absolute encoding for the pan axis and no need to realign the sled upon startup. Supporting payloads up to 20 lbs. (9 kg) when used with the included A-30 arm and vest, the Axis is ideal for filmmakers, broadcasters, and content creators seeking smooth, dynamic shots with ease. Whether you're a seasoned Steadicam operator or new to stabilization systems, the Steadicam Axis redefines what’s possible - offering the control and finesse of a Steadicam with the effortless operation of a gimbal. "Don’t miss this chance to see how the Steadicam Axis is shaping the future of camera stabilization at NAB!”

Hi Calum Great work, it's fun to do, yes, I know. I've also been working on the Flyer ( modification for months ( I'm working "partial time" over that) , using carbon fiber rods for monitor and the battery, new SDI 3G cable, BNC connectors, new power wires... THANK YOU for your help printing the Gimbal Wrap (version 1.0) . I'm also thinking about a version 2.0. (let me know if you cant help me about it.) I'm almost finished with my modification; I'll share it here when I have a "clean" version, let say. Don't forget analyze the distribution of the masses, to"reach" the Dynamic Balance. Just enjoy it

Keith Check it out these post. NOTE: I think , (could you upload a photo of the monitors if they are the Flyer monitors, they were analog SD monitors. I'm currently modifying a Flyer. I'm changing the internal wiring and replacing it with an HD/SDI monitor. I hope help

Hi Innokenty I just wanted to share some information about this. In context, last week I contacted Steadicam support by email,I wanted to confirm the part number of the pins for one of these arm. and their response was (copy - paste): "So looks to me like we basically just renamed the arm but it remains the same design. Here is the current A-15:" NOTE: to highlight, thank and highlight the fast and EFFECTIVE response from Evan Dunlevy from Steadicam customer service. They also attached this photo: It is also interesting to check out the database made by John E Fry (Good job, Thanks John). The database sshows: Max camera Weight = (10 for pilot and 15 for Aero), I think the limit is just in the gimbal, not the arm byself. https://www.johnfrysteadicam.co.uk/the-steadicam-database/ My 2 cents

Hi Keith Las Vegas convention center is huge, you know, and each building (hall) at least this is the first time I've seen it),has a small rooms that the exhibitors use to serve customers, without the noise of the exhibition, the rooms are just up stairs in the same hall. You don't need to buy a membership to visit NAB, just a few months before, almost all exhibitors offer codes to register visitors for FREE. When I have a code, I will share it. In fact, the official website says that registrations for NAB 2025 will be open from mid-January.

Hi Keith This year (NAB 2024 Las Vegas) Tiffen had a nice and small space, let's say, a bit away from the busy and noisy exhibition floor. There we were able to meet, talk, try out the rigs, just enjoying. For sure by 2025, we'll also be able to meet again during NAB 2025 at some Tiffen/Steadicam space. Happy flying!

Hi Maxim Welcome to the forum and this fascinating and hard world. Just a personal opinion, and you will be able to read many, for sure. Especially the vest, it is something that many operators consider PERSONAL, that is, each one of us prefers this model / brand because it "fits" our "operating mode" for different reasons. Of course, each brand and model has Pros and Cons. If you have the possibility to "wear" other models and try, try and try. Additional information, Junior Lucano is a Trinity operator based in China. Maybe it would be a good idea to contact him. https://lucanojr.com/ if I'm not mistaken, he uses a SmartSystem arm, maybe the vest too. All the best Fly safe
