FREEFLY MōVI Wheels 1-3 Axis Module (Brass)

With the new Freefly Wheels system, the combination of cutting edge cinema robots with classic controls has been simplified.

Personalize your Setup

MoVI Wheels feature a modular, adjustable mounting system that allows the user to quickly position each wheel module for maximum comfort. Easily adjust wheel friction, gear ratios, and toggle wheel modules on the fly.

Precision meets Simplicity

MoVI Wheels are optimized to work seamlessly with the MoVI ecosystem. When you switch to wheels control, MoVI parameters automatically adjust to give the most connected, precise and repeatable feel possible.

Expandable Architecture

MoVI Wheels feature a high-speed CAN network that allows you to add up to 9 modules to the system—control Pan / Tilt / Roll / Focus / Iris / Zoom as well as just about any future control input in our robotics ecosystem.

Notes

Software to support MIMIC compatibility will be available by the end of November. All necessary hardware will be included with your order.
