Solution: SA26-5 Monorail + Conductor - Long Runs, Easy Rigging
Summary
The Monorail is one of the most innovative new ways to move small to medium cameras. It support ping-pong automation shots, cinematic and timed presets, and live control. It has a single rail for support that can extend indefinitely (with middle hanger supports every 10 feet) in positions where other linear solutions can't go. It support cameras up to 10lbs mounted on DJI RS gimbals. The entire solution (Pan/Tilt/Roll/Slide/Focus/Zoom) is controlled and coordinated by eMotimo's Conductor SA2.6 motion controller. You can control it locally with a gaming remote, or from the control room when connected to a wired network.

What do you need from eMotimo?
What else do you need?
- Your camera/lens
- DJI RS Gimbal - We recommend the RS4 Pro - $869
- Focus Motor - if you just need one, use a DJI version that plugs into the gimbal, but if you need two - get two Nucleus M motor + cabling to give yourself the ability for mechanical, geared Focus Zoom on cinema lenses.
- Power Base for your Gimbal - We like Small Rigs or Tilta power bases
- Battery to power what you want - a 99Wh Vmount pack to DTAP and then distributed will power the Conductor / the RS Gimbal through its power base, a wireless video transmitter for several hours. You can go bigger to a 150WH or even 200Wh Plus to go longer and power your camera too.
- DTAP distribution (breaks out the connection from the battery )
- Battery Mounting Cold Shoe - clamp or bolt on a battery to the monorail.
Control Options
- Set for continuous loop (ping pong modes)
- Control Live / recall presets up to 30 feet away with gaming remote
- Connect to Cat5/6 network for remote control from BitFocus/Companion
