PTZ FLY
Compact Universal PTZ Camera Controller
PTZ Fly is your compact and versatile companion for controlling PTZ cameras and more. Whether you’re operating Panasonic, Sony, Canon, Birddog or any other leading camera brands, PTZ Fly gives you unmatched control over multiple cameras simultaneously. Beyond cameras, it integrates with an expanding library of devices, providing unparalleled flexibility for live production environments, lecture facilities, houses of worship, corporate events and more.
Small but Mighty
PTZ Fly may be small, but don’t let the looks deceive you. It’s packed with the same high-quality features and capabilities as SKAARHOJ’s larger controllers. Designed for ultimate flexibility, it allows you to control cameras from multiple manufacturers simultaneously, making it an ideal solution for smaller production companies or mobile setups. But it doesn’t stop there—PTZ Fly goes beyond camera control, giving you command over recorders, routers, network switches, and more from Skaarhoj’s ever-growing library of integrated devices.
Full Customization to Match Your Workflow
Tailor every button and encoder or even the joystick on the PTZ Fly to your specific needs. From setting up custom behaviours to creating additional control pages or entirely new layers, this controller adapts to your workflow. Whether you need to manage multiple cameras or control vision mixers, the possibilities are limitless. Furthermore, thanks to the powerful Reactor software, you can configure your SKAARHOJ device on the Fly by accessing the panel’s web interface. Any change that you make is instantly reflected on the panel without the need to connect additional USB cables.
One Button, Four Actions
Featuring SKAARHOJ’s unique four-way buttons, PTZ Fly effectively quadruples your customization options. Each button has four independent trigger zones, ensuring you have more control options than ever before—without needing extra real estate. You can configure one (or more) button to act as a navigator between pages of devices and control parameters or add unique actions to each edge. Prefer a more traditional approach? No problem! Each hardware component can act as a standard button or you can mix and match, but whatever you choose, you will always easily find your way around PTZ Fly.
Dynamic OLED Displays
Each button and encoder has a dedicated high quality OLED display to dynamically display the behaviour assigned to every hardware component. This means that, as your configurations grow with more layers you will always know what a button does before you press it.
Fits Any Production Environment
From compact live production setups to lecture halls, PTZ Fly’s small form factor makes it perfect for spaces where every inch counts. Its portability and versatility make it an essential tool for users across various sectors, including corporate AV, broadcast, and education.
Raw Panel Mode for Ultimate Flexibility
If you need control over devices not yet covered by SKAARHOJ’s library, PTZ Fly’s Raw Panel mode allows you to write custom integrations. This feature makes it the go-to choice for developers and advanced users who need bespoke solutions. Check the ultimate use of Raw Panel with Q-SYS integration.
Two Joystick Options
If you like the compact size of the PTZ Fly but prefer a more advanced joystick then you can opt for PTZ Fly with Hall Effect Joystick. A Hall Effect joystick offers unmatched precision and durability, making it ideal for applications that require fine control, such as camera movements or robotic systems. Unlike traditional joysticks, it uses magnetic sensors to detect movement without physical contact, reducing wear and tear and increasing longevity. This results in smoother, more accurate input, allowing for precise pan, tilt, and zoom adjustments. Its reliability and responsiveness make it a perfect choice for professional environments where accuracy is critical.
