For years, we have been developing advanced stabilization systems for demanding industrial and professional applications. Building on the success of the original Cyclo Steadicam Head, we are proud to introduce Cyclo Lite – a new generation of 1-axis stabilized heads designed for Steadicam operators and filmmakers who demand perfect stabilization and control in a compact and lightweight package.
From Cyclo 1 to Cyclo Lite – a new generation of stabilized camera heads
When we launched the first Cyclo 1, our goal was to create a reliable roll-axis stabilization
system with unlimited rotation, allowing operators to maintain a perfectly level horizon while preserving the natural movement of the camera.
Cyclo Lite takes this concept further.
The new system retains the proven stabilization philosophy of the original Cyclo, while introducing substantial improvements in size, weight, usability, and software integration. With a lower profile and significantly reduced weight, Cyclo Lite integrates seamlessly with Steadicam rigs, handheld setups, sliders, dollies, and other camera support systems.
Lightweight head design with advanced technology
Despite its compact design, Cyclo Lite incorporates a wide range of advanced technologies, including:
- Payload capacity up to 18 kg
- Weight starting at 3.35 kg
- Unlimited roll rotation through a fully enclosed slip ring
- Integrated touchscreen display
- Motion recording and automoves
- Shaker mode and floating mode
- Diagnostic and balancing tools
- Compatibility with S-Bus pilots and Nodo Wheels
These features make Cyclo Lite an exceptionally versatile tool for demanding film productions.
Our own wireless joystick and mobile Application
One of the most significant innovations introduced with Cyclo Lite is the complete control ecosystem developed entirely in-house by HD Air Studio.
Together with Cyclo Lite, we created our own wireless joystick and a dedicated mobile application for iOS and Android. Both solutions were designed from scratch by our engineering team to provide operators with faster setup, more intuitive control, and greater flexibility on set.
This proprietary ecosystem allows users to adjust settings, trigger advanced functions, and control the stabilized head with a level of precision and convenience that was not possible before.
Designed and manufactured entirely in Poland
At HD Air Studio, every aspect of product development is carried out internally – from initial concept and mechanical design to electronics, firmware, software, testing, and final assembly.
This fully integrated approach gives us complete control over quality and enables us to create highly specialized tools tailored to the real needs of professional camera operators.
Cyclo Lite is another example of our commitment to precision engineering, innovation, and practical usability.
Already trusted by professionals worldwide
Cyclo Lite is already reaching customers around the world, and the feedback has been very positive. Operators appreciate the lightweight and slim construction, intuitive control system, and the technological advancements that make the head easier and more versatile to use in demanding production environments.
The future of roll-axis stabilization
Cyclo Lite represents the next chapter in the evolution of the Cyclo 1 platform. By combining the proven concepts of the original Cyclo with newly developed software, wireless control systems, and a more compact mechanical design, we have created a powerful stabilization tool for modern cinematography.
If you are looking for a lightweight one-axis stabilized head that delivers precise horizon control and advanced functionality, Cyclo Lite is built to meet the highest professional standards.
