It surely is not 10Kg (In fact I haven't seen any digital camera that weight 10Khg !!!)
Title: Re: help needed in making camera gimbal for 10kg camera(apprx) Post by: SideWinder on January 30, 2015, 12:26:57 PM I havent heard any Nex series camera that weigh 10kg even with the interchangable lenses. If its Nex 5 there are ready made 3axis gimbal options available. And if you are looking for gimbal/motors, you want something that can handle 1-1.5 kg weight of camera.
You can find some more details @ http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2125811 (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2125811) Title: Re: help needed in making camera gimbal for 10kg camera(apprx) Post by: RCNeil21 on January 30, 2015, 01:31:18 PM I am sorry to say but its not right to say that no camera in the nex series weighs 10kg. I have handled a ftiends nex vg900, and according to him fully loaded with a autozoom kit lens, battery and flash/microphone in the hotshoe it weighs close to 12kg.
But the nex5n,l,r or standard ones dont weigh that much, even with accessories it might weigh max 1.5kg.

Easily it can carry with 4s lipo.. 8xxx series motor and roll mixes.. Title: Re: help needed in making camera gimbal for 10kg camera(apprx) Post by: SideWinder on January 30, 2015, 05:20:17 PM I see, Nx5 vs Nex 5.
Well you wont gimbal motors readily for anything above 10kg camera. gimbal motor with 13kg/cm GB 106 17) costing around 250$ each is the biggest that i know of but even that would be insufficrent. You probably need to change cameras. |
