The Legendary and Academy Award-winning U-CRANE is the most flexible and stable camera system on the market. It is the unique combination of the gyro-stabilized Flight Head mounted on a 2-axis gyro-stabilized remote-controlled camera crane. 

 

The high-speed mobile crane is mounted on the roof of a camera car or any other mobile platform (boats, bus, train, etc) and is safely operated via joystick consoles from within the Arm Car. 

 

Mostly used to film moving vehicles from just about any & every angle you want in all weather conditions. Shots can be set up on the fly & adjusted instantly. Sequences can be as dynamic as your imagination.
