It Moves!

June 18, 2019 / Restoration / Dykstraflex, Restoration, Star Wars
A short demonstration of the Dykstraflex pan, tilt and roll axes in motion.

It moves once more! The Dykstraflex pan, tilt, and roll device, referred to as the Trojan helmet, has been restored to working condition. We are preparing to reattach it to the main camera mover later this week and will have a complete, working Dykstraflex in a few day if all goes well.
