Testing performance of our newly built brushless gimbal. It's using direct drive motors instead of servos. There is no servo gimbal that can compete with this kind of technology.

Is this a prototype for a retail product? Do you expect to sell a variety of sizes for different applications? At what price point?

It's just home made prototype to satisfy needs for our aerial filming company. I think this technolgy will be very popular this year. Many companies are in this moment developing such gimbals and in few weeks it will be on the market. Search for AlexMos controller based gimbal systems.
