Default R2D2 robotic cameraman (soloshot)

Something like this was on the dream list when we were shooting "CloudStreet: Soaring the American West." I tried building a camera gimbal that could be controlled and monitored from the camera ship (Stemme) cockpit, but without much success.

Saw the "Soloshot" and checked the website. I pre-ordered the Soloshot 3 Pro with the 65x 4K camera last week. Delivery is promised for Spring 2016. Hope it works in an aerial application, but even if it doesn't, the thing looks promising for many other scenarios.
