What is the difference between a 785 Series system and a 985 Series system? Precision and degree of movement. Although the Series 200 system works very well for shooting video, if your application requires extremely slow movements (less than 3° per second) you may notice slight steps in the motion. For most video cameras that offer image stabilization you will never see it during playback but there is a difference. This system also offers less rotation. Depending on your controller, these systems will rotate about 300° per axis. For the pan, we include the GDP785A-BM. This pan offers very smooth movements and is a very rigid aluminum platform that can easily handle up to 150 pounds! The stock gear ratio is perfect for both slow and fast pans. This ratio can easily be changed if you are needing even slower movements or faster pans. If you choose a slower ratio, the amount of pan will decrease but precision will increase. For the tilt, we include the GDT785-8.00A. This tilt offers the same smooth movements as the pan since it utilizes the same patented gear-drive system. The stock ratio offers a good balance of speed and precision and like the pan, the ratio can be easily changed. If you choose a slower ratio, the amount of tilt will decrease but precision will increase. The joystick we include is the JS-200. This is currently our only joystick offering and will handle both the pan and tilt. We also include eight (8) of the 48” heavy-duty servo extensions, four for the pan and four for the tilt. These will allow you to control the unit up to 12 feet from the joystick.
