Hang Gliding Selfie Stick - Camera Boom

$ 125.00 CAD
The perfect accessory for any action camera (Drift, GoPro, etc). The panning is one of a kind and allows you to get different angles during the same flight. Construction is top-notch - CNC'd HDPE Engineering Plastic and all hardware is high-quality stainless-steel (other than the aluminum "hook" for thr Classic Action Cameras).

 

This product is now only just the camera boom arm.  No basetube mount is included.  Please purchase that separately here (you get a 30% discount on the basetube mount when ordering it with the camera boom).  

Features:

  • 40" two-piece (retractable) carbon boom 
  • As of Fall 2022, the 360-Camera model now has a twist lock to adjust the boom length.  It can be adjusted in-flight
  • For the Classic Action Cameras, the outboard carbon tube retracts all the way inside the inboard section and you can pin it in 3 different lengths   It is NOT adjustable in flight
  • curved boom "hook" (for thr Classic Action Cameras) so the boom is mostly out of the picture.  For the 360-Camera option, it is a straight camera attachment so the stick becomes imvisible
  • simple standard tripod mount for easy mounting of the Drift and Imsta360 cameras - GoPros require their mount
  • rubberized clamp on round base-tube - it doesn't scratch your basetube, nor does it rotate
  • no need for supporting wire for any configuration
  • solo (1.125") or tandem (1.25") versions available
  • thumb-screws on bottom for tool-free installation
  • easy to operate top screw to rotate and tighten in position in flight
    • We strongly recommend using rubber O-ring/washer provided between boom and base and DO NOT over-tighten the nut...you could strip the tapped hole in the basetube block
    • Center mounted on base-tube is not recommended for towing operations.  The Moyes FAST model can be slid to the centre during flight.  Great for different angles during the same flight!
    • We recommend panning the boom to the side while tow launching.
    • We recommend panning the boom to the side while landing. Be warned, since our basetube blocks are so sturdy and stable, the carbon boom CAN break when pressed against ground if left straight out.  Trimming the broken rod is an easy fix and replacement carbon rods can be sent out
    • We recommend you use a lanyard on your camera
    • For best audio results, make a simple wind-screen for your microphone
