Stefan Vino-Figueroa Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Hello! I have a GPI Pro Sled upgraded to HDSDI with a DBI. I sent it to Tiffen to install the Volt and they are having a hard time figuring out how to mount the Volt brains. Has anyone run into this issue and had a solution? I have the mounting bracket for an MDR for the DBI that I just sent over to them, but from what I hear that might not be the most secure option. Thanks in advance!

Premium Members Maxwel Fisher Posted January 23 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 23 Considering that top stage is at least 32 years old, you might be better off buying either a Betz topstage or the DB3S (that optical support makes). Both have a rod mount option and will be more rigid than the diving board that you're trying to use. Even a well loved DB3 with the diving board will be less prone to vibration than the DB1. Consider too that the DB1 at this point I believe is unserviceable because the parts don't exist. Alternatively, you could have something machined that clamps to the post, but you lose space as far as how high you can move your gimbal to the upper jbox. Talk to Jarrett Morgan here in Atlanta. If you need something custom, he's your guy. Also flies with the volt and has made some volt brain components that he already makes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
