This thing is a BEAST! http://www.lebccam.at/lebccam.php

Check out the following video samples (still trying to figure out how it's driven... is it Gravity or Powered?)

I think it has an electric motor into the top part of the trolley. look at the first photo, there is a black box on the back side of the trolley, positioned below the line of the white rope and above the line of the black rope. My guess would be they use the motor to spool the black rope (and subsequently moving the trolley) while using the white rope as a high tension static line. But it beats me where they are keeping a battery big enough to power a motor that size to move all that rig. i am impressed with the construction - looks heavy.

Ditto - I'm guessing fully rigged that cablecam weight at least 200 lbs. So they must be using Hi-Power Lithium Polymer Battery or the drive system is well hidden in those pics..
