Premium Members Robert Starling SOC Posted December 4, 2006 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I'm interested in finding either an excellent condition used Flyer or good price on new Flyer. thanks For a new Flyer it's hard to beat Peter Abraham at The Steadicam Workshops; call Peter before you do anything. For used gear Tiffen has a few year-end deals and demo Flyers on their site; you can also find the list on the SOA web site classified section. Regarding the V-mounts - we just returned two IDX 10s V mounts to our dealer in New Mexico. They are factory standard for the Flyer but don't work the way I need them on my Clipper. We used them for a few weeks to power some Marshall HD field monitors before we realized they didn't cross over to the Clipper. The dealer was nice enough to exchange them for the batteries we needed and I suspect they would love to make you a deal on them if they still have them. This all just went down within the last 2-3 weeks and these batteries only went through two charge/discharge cycles at most. Contact, Andrew, Kevin or Katie at Video Technical Services in Albuquerque 505-265-4045. Ask about the "Starling" returned batteries and they'll know what you want. I can also recommend VTS as a great source for anything and obviously their customer service is superb. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Fabrice Maurel Posted December 4, 2006 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I actually just bought one from Peter. He has been very responsive and a very nice guy to deal with. I have been trying to find a used one as well, but most used Flyers I found were almost as expensive as getting a new one.

Premium Members Peter Abraham Posted December 4, 2006 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 How could I not stop in here? A little Starling flew by my window and tipped me off. I do indeed sell Flyers, F-24 and Merlin and associated Tiffen accessories for those systems. I almost always have a used rig in the house, because I buy them new and use them for teaching Flyer Workshops a bunch of times, so they are Demo Units and can be sold as such. Usually the Demo units come in a bit below normal used price, but because of the amazing Tiffen Rebate Offer, going on till December 31, 2006 a new Flyer or F-24 is cheaper than a Demo unit from me ! Thanks for the props fellahs. Anything more detailed than this, I feel would be pushing it as far as what this OP is. Please email me for lots of info, and visit my website to see how I do business.
