The Scorpio 78' is the longest telescopic crane with human control capacity in the Film and Broadcast industry. This exceptional reach positions it as the largest and most powerful crane of its kind available in Central Europe. Designed using the same robust technology as the Scorpio 45', the 78' model features five telescopic sections plus a central arm, ensuring smooth, silent, and incredibly fast movement up to 2.6 m/s. The crane is renowned for its perfect balance between its fully extended range and its compact retracted size for transportation. It incorporates an advanced Dynamic Counterweight System that automatically compensates for balance during motion, alongside a hydraulic column, making it a highly reliable and versatile flagship camera support platform. It is powered by integrated batteries for completely independent operation.
