Hi all,
Bit new to all this so really appreciate any advice.

I am putting together an elevated photography business and i am looking for a reliable 12v pan and tilt unit and controller, with joystick.
Ive seen a cheap Mustang 12 pan and tilt head and wondered if u know what controllers are compatible with it. Failing this are there any 12v pan and tilts on the market that will do the job with controller. Im in th UK.

Buy a controller from where you bought the camera.

If not make sure the camera you bought has a common protocol such as Pelco D.

Any Pelco D controller should work.

It is better to buy both the camera, and the controller together from the same source when you do not have the "field" experience to make an informed decision.

Interesting concept! Reminds me of the people who put cameras on rockets to get higher view!

(scroll past the shuttle info, and see model rocket at the bottom)!
I hope there is some info that may assist your project!

QUESTION: Why is there always enough time to go back and fix it right a second time??
