The mount used here is our AF200, we just did an upgrade to the existing STC test flight last week. 36" Pictorvision Elcipse camera ball, big camera time!

Megan, yep, most heavy payloads (what one would use the AF200 vs the AF100 single-pole mount for) require a rear ballast cage, and also some people swap out the tail cone with one pre-ballasted. Here's what the rear ballast may look like with an AF200 (dual pole) mount.
