Custom battery mount for Archer...

[Peter Hoare]

Hello again everyone,

 

I have some time now, so I am ready to make up a few of these plates if anyone needs one. PM me or email me at pete.hoare@gmail.com. Lead time, about two weeks.

Hi Everyone,

 

The Archer V-lock plate is done, anodised and finally finished.

 

 

Just gotta take some proper photos of it and it will be on our website, so if anyone wants one, let me know and I can make one for you.

Hi all,

 

here's how I use it. Rod plate for tx-rx (camwave in between or ptapped), downconverter (ptapped). Sled plate for cam, focus and monitor. Comfortable and well balanced, help me keeping the sled short (very short) and give mass down under for good DB.

 

Great implementation.

p.s. I would like to know what experienced ops think about that distribution of the masses... thanks

Peter,

 

Will this also fit on 15mm Arri rods?

Hi Alfeo,

 

Unfortunately not, the Steadicam bars are a bit bigger than 15mm standard, and the centre distance is too small. I could however make a similar plate that would fit 15mm lightweight bars though....
