Channel Slider Kit A

Video slider kit: for filming at your own pace

This ServoCity camera slider kit contains aluminium Actobotics parts and all the components needed for assembly (screws, bolts, spacers, structural plates, etc.). It allows you to mount a video camera on the slider and move it over a distance of more than 48 cm. To vary the travel speed, simply select the speed of your gear motor using this formula:

• 6.3 /[no. of seconds for full travel at maximum speed)/60]
• If you want to travel 19" in 30 seconds, you will therefore need a 6.3/[30/60] = 12.7 RPM motor.

And because the kit is very light (less than 500 g without the servo), you can carry your equipment anywhere. Choose from among the parts in the Actobotics range to upgrade your kit and build the video project of your dreams!
