This setup is designed for productions that require a live video signal sent to a control room or video switcher.

Despite its complexity, the configuration remains compact: all components are evenly mounted on the gimbal’s side arms to maintain proper weight balance.

It allows for real-time signal transmission, sending the feed from the camera to the onboard monitor, which loops the signal to the wireless transmitter (MARS) and then directly to the control room.

Due to its overall weight, this setup is not intended for continuous use, but it is well suited for small-scale productions and specific live scenarios.
