New modular cable dolly system

Hello, I want to share this dolly system with you that I've been working on. The project is a modular dolly that can be configured as a cable dolly, slider and wheeled dolly. It has a motor and controller that allow travel speeds from 0 to 40 ft/min. This allows you to capture real-time film and timelapse. The controller also triggers the camera shutter. I think a robust, portable and affordable cable dolly is an incredibly useful tool that can bring amazing possibilities in a portable package. I've spent 2 years perfecting this system and I would love to see it in the hands of more capable film makers than I.

I just launched the system on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1492262416/charlotte-a-modular-real-time-and-time-lapse-dolly

Please take a look and share it with anyone you think might be interested.

Cable Dolly Question

Thanks for the question. The cable dolly kit includes a tensioner that tightens the steel cable. Over longer spans, say 200ft there will still be some sag but it is negligible.
