Milo Long Arm
For added height, the Academy Award
Winning Milo now has a Long Arm option to give
over 6 metres of lens height.
The arm is built up of 3 sections to allow the user to choose
the length required for the shot and for easier transportation. Designed and
modelled
in a similar manner to the standard Milo Arm, the Long Arm has weight and
rigidity or stiffness as its main feature, as well as portability and ease of
assembly.
The Long Arm has a moving counterweight system so that the arm can still extend
or retract, under computer controlled motors, by a meter. This also allows it to
be added to existing Milos with very little additional upgrading.
The arm effectively gives over 9 metres of vertical travel, more
than any other Mark Roberts Motion Control rigs - even a Cyclops
- although, to make full use of this, the Milo needs to be mounted on a platform to
go below floor level.
