Capture smooth and stable footage with this MS SWIFT X 150 Camera Slider with XL Motion Controller from Waterbird. Industry-standard, high-end ball bearings provide smooth gliding on this 59" motorized and bendable slider, which allows you to switch from shooting in a straight slider configuration to a curved one in just seconds and giving you the capability of bending the slider to a desired radius for easier transport. 

The included XL Motion Controller, which employs a brushless DC motor, enables high-speed, ultra-silent carriage operation with DMX, IP, or Bluetooth, providing accurate and reliable motion control. An optional battery pack is required if you wish to operate the unit without using the included power supply. Each segment of the slider features a 3/8"-16 mounting port at roughly every 4" to allow for wider flexibility when mounting on multiple tripods.

Q: 1. Will this work with the RS2 Pro and RS3 Pro too?

Q: 2. How do you clean sand from this, and make it smoother to run?

A: To remove sand, I would use a mild house-hold cleaner with paper towels and cotton swabs. Apply the cleaner to the towels and swabs first then clean away gently. If that does not get all the sand, then see if you can disassemble it to get out the rest. If this is to no avail, then I would contact the seller, Gradus Group, for servicing. a href= http://www.gradusgroup.com/support target= _blank http://www.gradusgroup.com/support/a
