I just received my version 2 professional mount from Airfoil. I've been using the version 1 with a Z230 package that I bought from John. Version 1 works great with absolutely zero vibration reaching the camera, but I needed more tilt. Well, along comes version 2 and it is awesome! I'll post some pictures as soon as I get it setup. From what I see, I don't think I could ask for anything more in a mount and it's built rock solid.

Take a looks at John's site and see for yourself or call him. John has been a tremendous help to myself and many others, and he builds quality products.

Version 2

We have version 1 which works great for stills, does the new one have the same "Ball and Socket" for leveling?

These pics might help a little. Hopefully I get time to try it out today. From what I see, it should work great.

Yeah, I feel like I'm flying a generic heli. I'm waiting on some Supercal decals so I can print some custom logos.

John, I didn't know you ever left the office, I thought you had a sleeping bag next to the work bench!

I just returned from flying the new mount, and as expected the video is awesome. I'm using a Sony TRV-900 and the video looks great, really steady. I find version 2 levels the camera even better than version 1, and the dampening system works great. I was throwing some hard cyclic in and it took it all in stride. The extended range of the pan and tilt is also excellent and exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't be happier!
