The Second Shooter PRO Slide/Pan/Tilt System features the Kessler Crane Second Shooter controller, a slider motor, and pan/tilt head combo, altogether allowing 3-axis repeatable motion control with up to 10 keyframes on each axis. The slider motor is compatible with the Kessler CineSlider, Stealth, and Philip Bloom sliders. The pan/tilt head mounts on the slider via mounting threads on the bottom. Both connect to the controller using included Cat 5 cables. A companion iOS/Android app works from up to 200` away over Wi-Fi and lets you adjust settings and remotely operate the system. Also, optional camera-specific Kessler cables, such as MFR#s MC1017 and MC1035, can be used for time-lapse and stop-motion capture.
Kessler Crane Second Shooter PRO Controller
The Kessler Crane Second Shooter PRO Controller connects to the Second Shooter Pan & Tilt Head and/or Slider Motor over Cat 5 cables included with the motors. The controller features three RJ45 motor ports, two for the pan/tilt head and one for the slider motor.
The controller includes a free downloadable iOS/Android app and Kessler Crane kOS software for Mac, Windows, and iPad (iPads only; iPhones are not supported). The app and the software can both be used remotely from up to 200` away over Wi-Fi (the software when used on an iPad). The mobile app provides additional features, including support for wireless Sony PS4 controllers.
With both motors connected, the controller allows you to operate three axes at the same time with up to 10 keyframes on each. When you bridge two of these controllers together (or use this controller with the predecessor Second Shooter Plus Controller), up to six axes can be operated at the same time. By letting you mix different keyframes for pan, tilt, slide, focus, iris, and zoom, the Second Shooter PRO Controller enables you to achieve elaborate, automated movements and a high production value.
The Second Shooter PRO Controller has an impact-resistant housing and a magnetic mount for conveniently attaching it to the optional slider motor or the Kessler Crane MagPak Battery for Second Shooter.

Kessler Crane Second Shooter Slider Motor
The Kessler Crane Second Shooter Slider Motor is a pulley system motor for the Kessler Crane CineSlider, Philip Bloom Slider, and Stealth Slider. It features a quick-change pulley system on the bottom that eliminates the need for additional motors. You can choose between fast, normal, and slow motor speeds by arranging the proper combination of motor pulleys. A small-size extra pulley is included.
A Second Shooter Controller is required to operate the Slider Motor. A slider-specific Kessler Crane motor mount is required to attach the Slider Motor to a slider. The compatible mounts are the CineSlider/Stealth Motor Mount, Pocket Dolly Motor Mount, Shuttle Pod Motor Mount, Shuttle Pod Mini Motor Mount, and Philip Bloom Pocket Dolly Motor Mount.
