I don't know if its been posted yet but here's the Stabilgo currently on kick starter. Only for gopro size cameras for $699 http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1969395374/stabilgo-ready-steady-go?ref=category

Defy video looks good...for some reason I'm not blown away...but it's definitely a step towards B-grade steadicam market crash :D when the price point drops couple hundred percent, I'll get interested :D

Any Relentless updates? Any feedback about AG700? C'mon people! :D :D

Here is the FAQ being sent out by Relentless from the video posted by Vitaliy when one inquires:

FAQ:

What is it called? It is called the DEFY gimbal. It is a 2 axis stabilized gimbal for handheld, multirotor, jib or any mountable surface. It comes with a handheld rig and base platform for mounting on many applications.

• when is it available? The first runs will be very limited to the first 20 pre-orders. We are building 20 only before it goes into larger production which will cause a delay to catch up to orders. The first 20 will target to ship in July.

• What cameras will it carry? Right now our rig is made for the black magic pocket cinema camera or the sony nex series (or similar). This is popular for its weight and size and it will be part of the first 20 runs. COMING very soon will be sizes to cary a DSLR like the 5D Markiii. We are currently not planning on carrying a RED (even though we shoot with RED), but may have opportunities soon to do so.

• will it be available around the world? Yes. We could ship anywhere as the user would pay for shipping as long as there are no restrictions to the country we are planning to ship.

• Can I pre-order? Yes. Very soon, we will have a stand a lone website to pre-order the gimbal and find more information.

• where can I see footage of the gimbal? We will email you a link very soon for all the sample footage as well as post footage on our site soon to view.

Let me know if you have any further questions and let me know how I can help. Thanks again for your intrest!

@Rambo , you are right, no more stabilizers, balancing, weights etc ... This is the ultimate tool needed long time ago ... If i get hold on this, it will be used 80-90% in my projects :-) Hope they will work on supporting GH3+12-35 = 900 grams or above ... I think in short time we will see a lot of these :-)

Absolutely, I've disbanded my self build project simply because in a very short time someone/manufacturer will have exactly what I want very cheaply.

I see miniature versions if these being used on racing motorbikes and other horizon lock uses, especially with GoPro type POV cameras.

Only problem I have, is all the years I've spent developing balance skills and stabilisation techniques sitting on the back of a jetski or boat, now is replaced with a simple cheap electro-mechanical device costing peanuts that anyone can use....sigh..bloody robots....I'm obsolete.

That's looking good VK, that basic rig without mulicontroller is exactly what I need.

Amazing how quickly this has escalated, a few months ago I posted here and in Multicopter forums requesting a handheld stabilising rig based on the motor gimbal system and it aroused no interest, just a few months later, we now have working rigs for sale and it seems like it is going to be a huge new tool for film making and event shooting.

@CRFilms there is almost no chance that a gopro gimbal built specifically for that camera is going to be able to handle any larger cameras. Have you held a gopro? those things are tiny and weigh almost nothing, so the gimbal motors do not need to be very powerful. That is where the MOVi is unique. It is beefy enough to handle a cinema type camera setup. There are already plenty of gimbals out there that could handle a go pro or even a GH2 with a pancake/small electronic zoom.

there is a 2 axis gymbal for the GoPro (and further down: NEX). http://fpv-community.de/showthread.php?23292-FANmuse-Gimbal-for-Gopro first: Its in german though... second: the NEX is much much more lightweight tahn the GH2...

This the closest diy MovI project I can find, but its not step by step, yet. Its by Bill Collydas: http://forum.freeflysystems.com/index.php?threads/converting-my-cs-gimbal-to-a-brushless-gimbal.1257/

@Riker, i think so :-) I would call it "robo steadicam" :-)

Why re invent the wheel. The overall structure of the Muvi is pretty good. What would the optimum size be for a GH-2/3? How about someone specing out dimensions for a Gh-2/3 version. All you need are proper motors on axis and the controller. I like the side handle idea the Muvi uses as apposed to a top handle.
