The Tyler Middle Mount or “Side Mount” is operated by a camera operator sitting in the right door of the helicopter. It can accommodate most film and video cameras. This mount is primarily used for shots circling around the subject area or flying next to the subject. (Example: Circling a building or parcel of land, flying next to a car or boat, etc.) Panning and tilting are accomplished by the operator physically moving the camera mount grips. The system includes a gyro-assist, which helps to reduce vibration. The camera operator and 1 passenger can fly in the helicopter while filming. This setup is ideal for: -Circling Shots (orbiting around the subject area)

Up to 3 passengers plus the pilot can fly in the helicopter while filming depending on the fuel and equipment load. This setup is ideal for: -Running Shots (towards the subject area) |
