Vortex aerial camera mount is the only system of its kind designed for full size broadcast and film cameras. It will lift a camera from ground level to a height of 30 metres in 15 seconds. On shot tracking speeds can be varied. A stabilising system together with carbon fibre technology achieve incredible stability in winds up to 30 knots. The camera can be overslung for 360° panning or underslung for ground level shots.
Vortex is trailer-mounted for support and portability. The trailer is fitted with hydraulic drive for small manouevres and hydraulic outriggers for levelling. The whole system is small and lightweight for access to any location. Vortex can be rigged and derigged in minutes enabling it to relocate several times in one day. Vortex is transported in the horizontal position.
