Turn Modtruss / Modulus X truss into a camera crane
The Crane Set transforms Modtruss / Modulus X M|6×6| truss into a versatile camera crane. Compatible with M|6×6| truss structures for professional crane setups up to 4.2m (13.7 ft).
What's in the box
Crane base, Mitchell mount, and all the hardware you need to build the crane around your own truss — see the product photos for the full contents and assembly steps. The package does not include Modtruss or Modulus X truss.
Flexible reach length
The Modtruss / Modulus X Crane Set supports multiple build lengths depending on production requirements:
- Minimum length: 1070mm (3.5 ft)
- Maximum recommended length: 4200mm (13.7 ft)
Longer crane configurations can be achieved depending on setup conditions and balancing experience, but they are used at the operator's own responsibility.
Maximum payload capacity
Payload capacity varies depending on crane length:
- 50kg (111 lbs) payload at 1800mm (6 ft)
- 40kg (88 lbs) payload at 3000mm (10 ft)
- 30kg (66 lbs) payload at 4200mm (13.7 ft)
The system is suitable for a wide range of cinema camera packages, including stabilized heads, remote heads, and gimbal setups.
Built for modular cinematography
The Modtruss Crane Set is designed to integrate seamlessly with modular rigging workflows. Its lightweight structure makes transportation easier while still providing the strength required for professional camera movement systems.
