This gyro stabilized KAP rig was built by Peter Bults at the KAPshop. The rig is designed to maintain a near nadir camera angle. The rig is stabilized by two GS-1 gyro servos that were designed by Scott Armitage of Dunehaven Systems. The camera used with this rig is a Canon Powersho G11 camera that is running CHDK with an intervalometer script. The rig is suspended from the kite line by a gent-X Picavet.
I have used this KAP rig to capture photos for large mosaics of archaeological sites. The equipment is effective.
