[Music] [Music] this is a long-arm Milo this is a long-arm Milo this is a long-arm Milo in many respects it's a standard Milo in many respects it's a standard Milo in many respects it's a standard Milo most of the items you see here are most of the items you see here are most of the items you see here are standard part of a Milo we have here a standard part of a Milo we have here a standard part of a Milo we have here a conventional Guinness head capable of conventional Guinness head capable of conventional Guinness head capable of doing all the usual Guinness head doing all the usual Guinness head doing all the usual Guinness head functions where we have pan tilt roll in functions where we have pan tilt roll in functions where we have pan tilt roll in the usual way we are running focus zoom the usual way we are running focus zoom the usual way we are running focus zoom Irish motors should we meet to do so Irish motors should we meet to do so Irish motors should we meet to do so this is sitting on a normal pan slip this is sitting on a normal pan slip this is sitting on a normal pan slip ring here with the outer arm and the ring here with the outer arm and the ring here with the outer arm and the conventional outer arm drive in here as conventional outer arm drive in here as conventional outer arm drive in here as you would have on a standard Milo this you would have on a standard Milo this you would have on a standard Milo this outer arm is in a nose piece which is outer arm is in a nose piece which is outer arm is in a nose piece which is the same frame size and measurements as the same frame size and measurements as the same frame size and measurements as a standard Milo nose except it's been a standard Milo nose except it's been a standard Milo nose except it's been cut off from the main arm cut off from the main arm cut off from the main arm this piece is removable and once we have this piece is removable and once we have this piece is removable and once we have removed it we can insert extra links in removed it we can insert extra links in removed it we can insert extra links in order to extend the length of the arm these one-and-a-half meter long makes these one-and-a-half meter long makes allow us to extend our main arm by one allow us to extend our main arm by one allow us to extend our main arm by one and a half meters or three meters in and a half meters or three meters in and a half meters or three meters in order to give us that extra reach and we order to give us that extra reach and we order to give us that extra reach and we still have a stable platform in the still have a stable platform in the still have a stable platform in the Guinness head on the end of the arm the Guinness head on the end of the arm the Guinness head on the end of the arm the arm itself is slightly taller than a arm itself is slightly taller than a arm itself is slightly taller than a standard arm because it gives us more standard arm because it gives us more standard arm because it gives us more rigidity to work that way here we have a rigidity to work that way here we have a rigidity to work that way here we have a set of sliding counter weights these set of sliding counter weights these set of sliding counter weights these have been added to the standard Milo have been added to the standard Milo have been added to the standard Milo they're fitted to the standard Milo sub they're fitted to the standard Milo sub they're fitted to the standard Milo sub arm plate and these counter weights have arm plate and these counter weights have arm plate and these counter weights have weights inside that are sliding if we weights inside that are sliding if we weights inside that are sliding if we extend and large weights on the back extend and large weights on the back extend and large weights on the back that counter weight the length of the that counter weight the length of the that counter weight the length of the arm obviously the amount of weight that arm obviously the amount of weight that arm obviously the amount of weight that we put on that is adjustable according we put on that is adjustable according we put on that is adjustable according to how many extensions we have put on to how many extensions we have put on to how many extensions we have put on our arm here we have a standard miter our arm here we have a standard miter our arm here we have a standard miter we have a standard main driver box we have a standard main driver box we have a standard main driver box standard gorilla power supply on the standard gorilla power supply on the standard gorilla power supply on the back standard lift drive and lift all back standard lift drive and lift all back standard lift drive and lift all screws screws screws this lift actually is probably better this lift actually is probably better this lift actually is probably better balanced that it is in the Milo because balanced that it is in the Milo because balanced that it is in the Milo because we are counter balancing the overall we are counter balancing the overall we are counter balancing the overall weight of the machine as we move the arm weight of the machine as we move the arm weight of the machine as we move the arm in and out so the lift actually works in and out so the lift actually works in and out so the lift actually works less hard when it has a long arm on less hard when it has a long arm on less hard when it has a long arm on under here we have a conventional extend under here we have a conventional extend under here we have a conventional extend or strew that gives us the usual or strew that gives us the usual or strew that gives us the usual ACH of 90 centimeters of travel on out ACH of 90 centimeters of travel on out ACH of 90 centimeters of travel on out extend again it's a standard Milo part the head driver box is again in the back the head driver box is again in the back end of the arm as it was before because end of the arm as it was before because end of the arm as it was before because we have added a 1.5 meter or a 3 meter we have added a 1.5 meter or a 3 meter we have added a 1.5 meter or a 3 meter arm to this conventional arm the arm to this conventional arm the arm to this conventional arm the kinematics model obviously has to be kinematics model obviously has to be kinematics model obviously has to be changed for each of these changes where changed for each of these changes where changed for each of these changes where I have a one point 8 meter arm linked at I have a one point 8 meter arm linked at I have a one point 8 meter arm linked at 0 where I've added one extra extension 0 where I've added one extra extension 0 where I've added one extra extension it would become a three point three it would become a three point three it would become a three point three meters I'm licked at zero and where I meters I'm licked at zero and where I meters I'm licked at zero and where I add two sections it would become a four add two sections it would become a four add two sections it would become a four point eight meter length zero point eight meter length zero point eight meter length zero this machine is stable but not quite as this machine is stable but not quite as this machine is stable but not quite as stable as a Milo conventionally you can stable as a Milo conventionally you can stable as a Milo conventionally you can do accurate overlay repeat passes with do accurate overlay repeat passes with do accurate overlay repeat passes with it it it you have to be a little more gentle on you have to be a little more gentle on you have to be a little more gentle on the extend and the rotate and the lift the extend and the rotate and the lift the extend and the rotate and the lift when moving it around because you're when moving it around because you're when moving it around because you're swinging a much greater inertia but it swinging a much greater inertia but it swinging a much greater inertia but it gives you the capability to get over a gives you the capability to get over a gives you the capability to get over a studio to get extra height to put in studio to get extra height to put in studio to get extra height to put in those shots where you need to do repeat those shots where you need to do repeat those shots where you need to do repeat passes but from a much higher viewpoint this combination can take a camera up to this combination can take a camera up to just below 20 feet off the floor that's just below 20 feet off the floor that's just below 20 feet off the floor that's six meters off the floor and of course six meters off the floor and of course six meters off the floor and of course should you be working in a situation should you be working in a situation should you be working in a situation where you can go down below the floor where you can go down below the floor where you can go down below the floor you can take it lower as well you'll you can take it lower as well you'll you can take it lower as well you'll notice we've put outriggers on a notice we've put outriggers on a notice we've put outriggers on a conventional rail this gives us a meter conventional rail this gives us a meter conventional rail this gives us a meter extra stability a either side for the extra stability a either side for the extra stability a either side for the not going to happen occasion when for not going to happen occasion when for not going to happen occasion when for some reason you put some kind of move in some reason you put some kind of move in some reason you put some kind of move in or need to emergency stop quickly in or need to emergency stop quickly in or need to emergency stop quickly in order to stop any role that could occur order to stop any role that could occur order to stop any role that could occur the outriggers we consider essential the outriggers we consider essential the outriggers we consider essential when you're using a long extension long when you're using a long extension long when you're using a long extension long arm this has been a mark Roberts motion this has been a
