SPORTS EVENTS :

Commonwealth Games

Our team worked last week on the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast of Australia in a disastrous weather : cyclonic precipitations and heavy wind were on time but our systems held on and the shooting ran smoothly thanks to our stabilization technology which also allowed us to shoot at low altitude and overnight.

Two of our X fly 3D were installed for this event :

- One X fly 3D was coupled with our Mini Flight Head for the Opening and Closing ceremonies plus all the athletic sporting event

- And the other one was installed with our brand new head : the XD CAM for swimming and diving. Specificity of the installation : the system was installed on thin light poles and motors position were calculated to allowed us to switch from swimming to diving (so we avoided any standby on the shooting) in a record time : 5 hours. This X fly 3D will stay in Australia for any project in this globe area.

Also for this project, we used our Stab C Compact on a 15 meters Techno Crane for the diving trials.
