Panther FOXY PRO Crane
THE NEXT STEP
Safety for camera crane operators has always been in mind for us. We want to offer the film industry more. Our goal and our passion is to make Filmequipment that all your requirements – also in the crane area. The result is the Foxy Pro – THE NEXTSTEP..
Description
Made to inspire.
At the present time, the demands of modern production are particularly high. There is much produced – with complex tasks. With high safety awareness and little budget. And even less time and staff.
Panther took into consideration and found an intelligent solution to these problems. The Foxy Pro, a unique and patented crane concept. The next step of filmmaking.
THE NEXT STEP
Easier than ever before
The Foxy Pro camera crane is again one step ahead! We wanted that the users have it even easier to set up the crane. It is set up with only equal outriggers. This outrigger is used at all positions – also where a bracing is required.
So conversions into different crane lengths are done faster and easier.
Anchor Pole Axis
For the cranes’ bracing we designed a special Anchor Pole Axis (302090). All outriggers are equipped with a hole for the Anchor Pole Axis. You can place it quick and easy where ever it is needed.
Outrigger Tail
The Outrigger Tail (136770), which previously only could be ordered as an accessory, is now standard included with the Foxy Pro!
It is needed on both ends of the crane to mount the counterweight bucket, platform or remote head mount.
BIG BASE
Let’s start
Crane Base
It all begins with the Big Base (200183) which is the main base for all Foxy Pro Crane configurations. It is designed to ensure greater stability and security.
By simply turning the base 90° you can choose between 62cm and 100cm track gauge.
Steering
To have maximum flexibility with your Foxy Pro the Big Base comes with two different Steering Modes:
Front- and 4-Wheel Steering
COMPACT DESIGN
Patented storage concept
Form Follows Function
The Foxy Pro Pyramid is designed in such a way that it can be used as the storage point for all crane parts.
The patented construction facilitates easy transport and orderly storage of all elements of the Foxy Pro Crane. All it takes is only one person to transport the crane to the location site.
Depending on your needs, you can choose between 3 different pyramid sizes. They differ in their height and the number of stowable outriggers. Every pyramid fits perfectly to the Big Base. It is also possible to mount the pyramid somewhere else (for example camera car).
NOSE MOUNT
As flexible as possible
The Nose Mount (310949) is designed to be as flexible as possible. For Remote operations you can for example mount a Mitchell Plate (Over- and Underslung). For platform usage you can mount the Running Board (132662) and a Turnstile Attachment (100374) to it.
COUNTERWEIGHT
Choose the one you need
In addition to the standard Counter Weight Bucket for 39 Weights (169310) there is also a smaller one for 18 Weights (127098) available – perfect for more compact Crane or Jib versions. In some cases you will need an additional Counter Weight Bucket for 4 Weights (301850) which is necessary if you need maximum payload (only some versions – see specs for more information).
UPGRADE
Included in every new Foxy Pro. Upgrade available for older versions
Upgrade your previous Foxy Modell
The Foxy Pro Upgrade Kit (301518) is an anchoring system which amplifies each outrigger. The result is an increased payload on platform or remote mount of up to 10%.
Even if more payload is not required, there is additional safety of up to 50%. An important safety aspect when dynamic forces are higher than expected (crane mounted on vehicles etc.)
THINK FURTHER
Be as flexible as possible
We want to give you maximum flexibility with our equipment. The reason why me make this better than others is easy. We think further.
Light Adapter
An adapter for tubes between 25mm and 35mm (134164) is the perfect tool to mount for example lighting equipment on your Foxy Pro. You can mount it in standing or hanging position.
So the crane can also be used for other purposes. With a high payload of up to 50kg / 110 lbs the adapter covers almost all lighting sizes.
VERSIONS
Platform or Remote. Now even more powerful
Platform
The platform version of the Foxy Advanced features 4 variants. From 2.8 m up to 7.3 m length there is no limit to your creativity.
Remote
The remote version offers 8 standard variants as well as many special variants. Adjust your Foxy Pro to your needs.
From 2.7m up to 13.2m length you will find something for every preference.
Foxy Pro Jib
The Foxy Pro can be used as a Jib Arm due to a Euro-Foxy Adaper (159541). Use your Panther dolly as base. Also dollies without an electro-mechanical column can be used for the Foxy Pro Jib – for example the Buddy Plus dolly by using a bazooka.
