Eliminating axis spinning during steadicam drop test after achieving static balance
What the thread found
- A rig can be in static balance (camera level at rest) but still exhibit dynamic imbalance, causing unwanted spinning rotation when the rig moves or tilts away from vertical.
- Gimbal centering should be inspected and corrected to rule out mechanical causes of spinning during operation.
Depends on
- The specific rig model was not identified in the discussion.
- No detailed step-by-step procedures for correcting dynamic imbalance were provided in the thread itself.
