Channel Slider Kit A

Put your videos in motion with the timing belt channel slider kit. This slider has an overall length of 24" with a usable 19" of slide travel. It fits nicely in a carry-on bag and is very portable for those who wish to take it along to capture their active lifestyles (overall weight of only 1.1 lbs without motor). The motor mount is compatible with our 3-12V gearmotors and 6-12V precision gearmotors (motors sold separately). The vast motor options allow you to tailor the slider to fit your shooting style whether it's for real-time shots or super slow time-lapse shots. The slider kit is constructed entirely of Actobotics components which allow users to expand it very easily. GoPro Mount and Phone Mount A not included. Motor sold separately. Slider speed calculation: The following formula can be used to help select the correct speed of gearmotor. 6/[(number of seconds for full travel at max speed/60] For example, if you wish to build a slider that will move 19" in 30 seconds: 6/[30/60] = 12RPM motor required TECH TIP: To add yet another element to your video, you can install a pan system to the bottom of the Slider Kit A. The 170 degree viewing angle on a GoPro camera won't allow you to install a pan system on top the slider rail as it would capture the rail throughout the majority of the video footage. By installing a pan system to the bottom side of the rail, you can capture footage without having to worry about the slider rail creeping into view. To make this kit compatible with a NEMA 17 stepper motor you will need the following items (sold separately): (1) NEMA 17 Motor (1) NEMA 17 Motor Mount (1) 5mm to 1/4" Set Screw Shaft Coupler
