MK-V Level gimbal development status and production timeline
What the thread found
- The Level underwent significant upgrades from the beta version including shorter length, increased rigidity, wifi connectivity, quieter operation, stronger motors, and different gear materials.
- A six-month delay in receiving new motors was the primary cause of extended production timelines beyond initial expectations.
- The first final version of the Level was undergoing testing with initial production of components already in progress as of the discussion date.
- Twenty-five units were scheduled for delivery in early February pending successful testing completion.
- MK-V is concurrently developing multiple products including a new gimbal, new sled, AR3, and Level, which affected their ability to provide frequent communication updates.
