I find it amazing how simple the rig is, that even at a red light we could jump out and make position adjustment.

We just used the system on two different music video shoots. It worked amazing! The video we captured turned out better then we ever expected!”

There are many reasons to love the rig, but I cannot stress enough the fact that it also integrates with all of the other tools from RigWheels and that is just fantastic!

FAQs

How do I adjust the cabling?

You can either add/remove cables to adjust the stiffness of the mount or shorten/lengthen the cables by pushing them in/out of the cable clamps.

You want the mount as "soft" as possible to absorb the most vibration but depending on speed, position, terrain etc... how soft you can make it would be different.

Can I use the Cloud Mount on a different kind of vehicle.

The Cloud Mount has been used on boats, helicopters, trains, dog-sleds and a whole lot more. It is a very versatile mounting/isolation platform.

What makes the Cloud Mount different than ____ isolator?

There are certainly a lot of isolator options available now. The Cloud Mount is quick and practical. It is designed for on-location production and enables you to get great shots quickly without the time-drain of multi-point rigging.

Can I use a regular tripod head.

You can use regular tripod heads with the Cloud Mount but you would want to remove the isolator in that scenario. These are the same components as are used in RigWheels other "hard-mounts" and can easily be reconfigured for that purpose.

Can I use the Cloud Mount to isolate ____?

Because of the cabling setup, the Cloud Mount is generally used on moving vehicles/platforms. If you are trying to isolate something in a stationary environment, the PT-Zero may be a solution. Please contact us about any alternative uses you may be interested in.
