Review Summary
Letus Helix is a four axis modular camera stabilizer system that is unique in the gimbal world. Because it is lightweight and can be held closer to the body than other gimbals, you can use it longer, and when you finally do want to set it down, you don't need a stand to do so. You can just set it on a table or stand. The modular design means you can add or remove axes as needed. For example, a 4 axis system can be used in 4, 3, or 1 axis mode to suit your filming needs.
4 axis
This setup still gives you free range of motion with the added benefit of taking the weight off your arms. It can be mounted under-slung or over-slung to a 3rd party support vest/arm system such as an Easyrig.
Light Magnesium Alloy
The Helix Mg is the lighter version of the awar-winning Helix. By using Magnesium alloy, the Helix Mg is 1.5 lbs lighter than the standard Aluminum version.
Benefits of Built-In Encoders
Preventing motors from losing their position (skipping steps) when bumped or moved too aggressively
Dramatically increasing battery life (up to 5 times longer life!)
Increasing torque, giving you the extra strength needed for more aggressive panning motions
Adding the ability to physically adjust the camera's position by hand and have the gimbal maintain this position
Increases the precision of stabilization
