  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Kessler Fusion - Motion Control System

OK, I don't think this warrants a new thread so I am going to tack this on here. Has anyone had the opportunity to try a stripped down Scarlet/Epic rig with the Kessler Shuttle Pod Mini? I am thinking of purchasing one as it would be more versatile than a slider and yet is still pretty compact. I would probably also get the Oracle kit to motorize it. Thoughts?
I have the normal shuttle pod, and it for sure flex's a bit when my rig is around 25 pounds ... with a mini you have to keep the rig bellow 15 pounds(that's just too close to the edge for me). I'd btw get the fusion system, but I hear about the 1 amp limit and the weight issues above 15 pounds ... would love to hear someone using the new kessler stuff with a 25 pound rig.
 
Thanks Paul. Correct, we rebranded the system to CineDrive.

The old Fusion site should be redirecting, so thanks for the heads up about the loading issue. Will look into getting that fixed ASAP.

good to see you Chris, any ETA on phase 2? I ordered one jut under the wire!

Release 2 orders are in process. The Phase 2 features development is going well. Engineers have been doing a lot of testing of the new features. Interface for the iPad is going well too. Here is a link to a quick overview of the of the iOS app in development. http://vimeo.com/55108024

So after a bunch of procrastination I decided to go with the regular Shuttle Pod with the Oracle and 12 ft of track rather than the Mini. It seems like one of the best systems out there and can be upgraded in the future to fusion/cinedrive as I am pretty sure the Oracle will retain good resale value.
