so you're wanting to get into Moco but so you're wanting to get into Moco but you don't know which rig is right for you don't know which rig is right for you don't know which rig is right for you don't worry I got you so unfortunately as with most things you so unfortunately as with most things in life there's no one siiz fits-all and in life there's no one siiz fits-all and in life there's no one siiz fits-all and all of the rigs that we're going to talk all of the rigs that we're going to talk all of the rigs that we're going to talk about today are just tools that are about today are just tools that are about today are just tools that are meant to solve specific problems does meant to solve specific problems does meant to solve specific problems does that mean they can't be used for that mean they can't be used for that mean they can't be used for different purposes of course not all the different purposes of course not all the different purposes of course not all the rigs we're going to talk about today do rigs we're going to talk about today do rigs we're going to talk about today do share some similarities but it's share some similarities but it's share some similarities but it's important that you understand their important that you understand their important that you understand their differences so that you can make the differences so that you can make the differences so that you can make the most informed decision about which rig most informed decision about which rig most informed decision about which rig is right for you or your project now for is right for you or your project now for is right for you or your project now for the fun part specs up first we have the the fun part specs up first we have the the fun part specs up first we have the Cabot mini this is a very Compact and Cabot mini this is a very Compact and Cabot mini this is a very Compact and lightweight option Logistics wise the lightweight option Logistics wise the lightweight option Logistics wise the Cabot mini wins which makes a lot of Cabot mini wins which makes a lot of Cabot mini wins which makes a lot of sense because the intended use case is sense because the intended use case is sense because the intended use case is for on location shoots and it's designed for on location shoots and it's designed for on location shoots and it's designed with smaller crews in mind recommended with smaller crews in mind recommended with smaller crews in mind recommended crew size for all rigs is typically two crew size for all rigs is typically two crew size for all rigs is typically two but you can definitely get away with but you can definitely get away with but you can definitely get away with just one in many cases with the cinebot just one in many cases with the cinebot just one in many cases with the cinebot mini uh you may just want to plan for an mini uh you may just want to plan for an mini uh you may just want to plan for an extra set of hands to help with setup extra set of hands to help with setup extra set of hands to help with setup and te on next up we have the cinebot and te on next up we have the cinebot and te on next up we have the cinebot max with extra reach and payload the Max max with extra reach and payload the Max max with extra reach and payload the Max and mini both come with push Moko and mini both come with push Moko and mini both come with push Moko technology which allows you to get your technology which allows you to get your technology which allows you to get your hands on the camera and physically hands on the camera and physically hands on the camera and physically position it wherever you want in order position it wherever you want in order position it wherever you want in order to store Key frames or you can record to store Key frames or you can record to store Key frames or you can record this handheld movement uh live and then this handheld movement uh live and then this handheld movement uh live and then play it back using mimic mimic is a tool play it back using mimic mimic is a tool play it back using mimic mimic is a tool that is used to get the robot to copy that is used to get the robot to copy that is used to get the robot to copy very specific movement data as precisely very specific movement data as precisely very specific movement data as precisely as as as possible okay I just wanted to show you possible okay I just wanted to show you possible okay I just wanted to show you guys how this works real quick we got a guys how this works real quick we got a guys how this works real quick we got a little setup here uh with the the mini little setup here uh with the the mini little setup here uh with the the mini and I'm just going to show you how mimic and I'm just going to show you how mimic and I'm just going to show you how mimic works okay so I have all the axes in works okay so I have all the axes in works okay so I have all the axes in learn which means they're going to learn which means they're going to learn which means they're going to record whatever movement I do next I'll record whatever movement I do next I'll record whatever movement I do next I'll go ahead and put the robot into push go ahead and put the robot into push go ahead and put the robot into push Moco mode by pushing this button and now Moco mode by pushing this button and now Moco mode by pushing this button and now it moves wherever I say and uh next I it moves wherever I say and uh next I it moves wherever I say and uh next I can just hit this start record button can just hit this start record button can just hit this start record button and wherever I move the and wherever I move the and wherever I move the camera it will start recording I can hit stop we got a green recording I can hit stop we got a green check mark so now I can hit shoot and check mark so now I can hit shoot and check mark so now I can hit shoot and the robot will do exactly the handheld the robot will do exactly the handheld the robot will do exactly the handheld motion that we just created um and motion that we just created um and motion that we just created um and before you ask I broke this camera in before you ask I broke this camera in before you ask I broke this camera in Hawaii so it's uh it's dead but that's a Hawaii so it's uh it's dead but that's a Hawaii so it's uh it's dead but that's a story for another day the cinebot mini story for another day the cinebot mini story for another day the cinebot mini and Max were designed with entrylevel and Max were designed with entrylevel and Max were designed with entrylevel Simplicity in mind and they are meant Simplicity in mind and they are meant Simplicity in mind and they are meant for portability and ease of use this for portability and ease of use this for portability and ease of use this does not mean that you should does not mean that you should does not mean that you should underestimate them they are very underestimate them they are very underestimate them they are very powerful and you can get some extremely powerful and you can get some extremely powerful and you can get some extremely creative and unique shots uh one of my creative and unique shots uh one of my creative and unique shots uh one of my favorite things about them is that you favorite things about them is that you favorite things about them is that you don't necessarily in many cases need to don't necessarily in many cases need to don't necessarily in many cases need to switch to side mount in order to get switch to side mount in order to get switch to side mount in order to get shots where say you start over top and shots where say you start over top and shots where say you start over top and kind of orbit down like this kind of orbit down like this kind of orbit down like this traditionally you would need to switch traditionally you would need to switch traditionally you would need to switch to side mount to use the roll axis to to side mount to use the roll axis to to side mount to use the roll axis to tilt the camera uh but because of the tilt the camera uh but because of the tilt the camera uh but because of the shape of the arms you can't actually get shape of the arms you can't actually get shape of the arms you can't actually get away with it in many cases just staying away with it in many cases just staying away with it in many cases just staying in top mount and this can save a lot of in top mount and this can save a lot of in top mount and this can save a lot of time it doesn't stop there either the time it doesn't stop there either the time it doesn't stop there either the mini and Max can both run on battery for mini and Max can both run on battery for mini and Max can both run on battery for up to 10 hours so now you can have quiet up to 10 hours so now you can have quiet up to 10 hours so now you can have quiet reliable motion control pretty much
