This allows the rig to work with a variety of vehicles \u2014 though not every single one. The base comes with four six-inch suction cups and four security straps rated for over 300 lb each.

The vehicle&#8217;s 12V power supply is used to trickle charge the &#8220;ultracap.&#8221; During setup you simply plug MotoCrane into the 12V power supply of the vehicle, and let it charge for about four minutes. Once the MotoCrane iOS app notifies you that the system is ready, you can operate it as long as the car is running. The ultracaps power everything in the system including the 200W D-Tap connector located on the head. MotoCrane can operate all day without ever swapping a single battery. We love it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PB:<\/strong> How long has the MotoCrane been in development?<\/p>\n<p><strong>ZN:<\/strong> MotoCrane, LLC was founded in March 2013 by Zachary Nelson, Scott Tovsen, and Teal Bunbury.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-85658 size-full\" title=\"Turn Your Vehicle Into a Camera Car With MotoCrane: Rig Attached\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg\" alt=\"Turn Your Vehicle Into a Camera Car With MotoCrane: Rig Attached\" width=\"755\" height=\"503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg?resize=277,185 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg?resize=359,239 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg?resize=543,362 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg?resize=560,373 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/MotoCrane_Rig_Attached.jpg?resize=150,100 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>PB:<\/strong> How long has it been tested?<\/p>\n<p><strong>ZN:<\/strong> We&#8217;ve been rigorously testing our prototypes for 12 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PB:<\/strong> Where are the parts being manufactured?<\/p>\n<p><strong>ZN:<\/strong> MotoCrane is manufactured around the world with components coming from Germany, Hong Kong, Denmark, United States, and more.
