RC Camera Platform - Eclipse Rover

I always liked to play with RC cars as a kid, but I never thought I would be doing it for a living as a filmmaker!

Lately I have been testing out several products from . These guys convert RC cars, so that they can be used as camera platforms.
The camera attaches directly to the rover, or you can use a 3-axis camera gimbal to get stabilized shots while the RC car drives over various terrain.
As you can see in the video, the combo of the RC car with a gimbal works pretty well – even when riding around on an uneven dirt road.
By the way, in my tests I used the Panasonic GH4 camera (which I reviewed here ).
You can get the Panasonic GH4 at:
B&H Photo Video
AMAZON
I also used the CAME-TV Argo 3-axis gimbal, which I reviewed here
You can buy this gimbal here:
B&H
Amazon
eBay

Finally, make sure you subscribe to my newsletter (here ), so you can be notified when I have an updated review of this rover – once I use it on a film shoot.
