With over 100 sold world-wide and to fuel our ever-growing desire
for Selfies, we thought we'd improve them for 2015!

First off, we designed separate mounts for Carbon base tubes. They fit super
tight and can be left on your basetube between flights. Our boom screws in to
the base and can be panned at will during flight. The new design minimizes
camera bounce. Wolfi and Jonas are the first to use these on their Rhythm of
Flight project (http://RhythmOfFlight.com).
Secondly, we just finished a new, two-piece basetube mount for the WW Aluminum
Airfoil base tube. These can't be slid on like the carbon mounts so we had to a
bit more work to do on this one. It also clamps on to the airfoil base tube
better to reduce camera bounce:
Our new lineup of basetube mounts:
Other changes:
- reduced height to the boom - reduces side-to-side wobble (was never a big issue)
& reduces cost of over-seas shipping!
- changed the audio cable option from an internal cable/jack to an external
(shrink-wrapped) cable with flexible ends on both ends (we kept breaking our
Female jack by rotating the boom without disconnecting cable)
- discontinued original airfoil mount
- discontinued modular/extendable option
- reduced prices of most configurations (especially the airfoil options)
New External Audio option (it's NOT carbon!). You may also note the reduced
height of the curve compared to our previous offerings:
Availability - most components are in stock now or coming off the line this
week. We were sold out of many items back in the fall and spend our winter
upgrading to a new CNC machine and redesigning the above! Now that our flying
season is upon us, it's time to get these new products out there and go flying!
Other base tubes - if you want a mount for your basetube that isn't listed, we'd
be happy to offer those as well. WW graciously provided us with their basetube
CAD profiles which greatly helped our design efforts but we still needed to
test/alter/test on actual base tubes to ensure exact fit. So we are looking for
chunks of broken base tubes for the following:
Atos carbon (already in the works)
Moyes FAST
Aluminum Aeros carbon
Icaro carbon
If you have a broken one please contact us to arrange sending us a chunk of it -
we'll provide you with a complete Selfie Boom (configuration of your choice) for
free!
