Freefly Systems MoVI XL

The Freefly Systems MōVI XL is a lightweight, portable, handheld gimbal system that allows users to capture stable imagery in the most demanding environments. MōVI XL is completely wireless for both command and power using the Freefly control ecosystem (MIMIC, MōVI Controller, Pilot) and Freefly's high power lithium batteries. MōVI XL is built to interface with the entire Freefly ecosystem, which means you can use MIMIC or MōVI Controller for gimbal pointing or camera control and hand the Pilot off to your 1st AC for FIZ control. Wireless and fully integrated into MōVI XL.

MōVI XL is designed to mount in underslung or overslung mode without build reconfiguration, simply by flipping the roll axis over. The optional quick release (sold separately) allows operators to rapidly transition the MōVI XL from jib, to car, to tripod, to dolly, to camel, all without use of tools. The MōVI XL pan mount plate features six threaded M6 mount holes and six 3/8"-16 thru holes to enable mounting in a variety of situations. Freefly has published a solid model and drawing to the autodesk gallery to allow users to create custom adapters as needed. Fast pack-down and easy setup allow you to focus on the creative aspects of filmmaking.

Freefly designs all motors in-house to exacting specifications. This results in motors that are lightweight without sacrificing peak power, optimized for cooling under load. Freefly specializes in field-oriented motor control and developed the sinusoidal motor drives that can be found on the MōVI and ALTA. The technology developed for these drives laid the foundation for the MōVI XL drive, which is capable of 200W continuous and 500W peak power. Custom motors, drives, and high power batteries allow MōVI XL to hit speeds of up to 100mph (160km/h) without sacrificing control or stability.

MōVI XL is designed to make camera and accessory setup as easy as possible. Dual 10Ah 22.2V batteries provide power for the MōVI XL and accessory ports, and will run the system for up to 5+ hours.

Freefly has designed a versatile, modular, and adaptable ecosystem to allow filmmakers to operate in whatever way is most productive for them. This means you can use MIMIC, MōVI Controller, Pilot, and the MōVI XL app to distribute control of gimbal pointing, FIZ, and camera controls in whatever way makes sense for your shot.

MōVI XL features the world’s smallest, fully integrated, 3 axis lens control system built into the camera stage. Control all 3 channels with either the Pilot, MōVI Controller, MIMIC, or a combination of the 3 systems.

MōVI XL boots in 2 seconds, and autotunes in 10 seconds. MōVI XL features Freefly’s advanced Autotune which automatically finds optimal tuning and filter values in under 10 seconds. Tuning gains will no longer be a part of gimbal operations with MōVI XL. Go from zero to shooting in under 15 seconds. 

MōVI XL updates camera pointing one thousand times per second. This means stable shots in the most demanding environments. MōVI XL also gives users real time data that allows them to optimize performance. Motor temperature, error codes, balance, and rf strength are all available via the app or MōVI Controller.

MōVI XL features internal wiring to prevent damage or snags during usage. A protective 'e-chain' for pan wiring is also included, and Freefly has designed the wiring with serviceability and in-field replacement in mind. Each motor features a hollow shaft to allow users to easily route cables through the gimbal.

Tune and customize your MōVI XL in real time using the MōVI Pro App. Available for iPhone and Android.
