hague mini or flycam nano ???? I can't decide

They are both in my price range but the FlyCam looks more legit, and the Hauge thing seems a bit dated but the results look good as well.... I'm leaning toward the Nano based on lots of demonstration videos.

Anyone? Help.... :)
 
I also plan to buy a cheap stabilizer in the next few months

for me the number one thing is how easy it is to balance the thing

I don't know about the Hague one, but the flycam nano, though it is fine for top-bottom balancing, seems to be a big pain for left-right and front-back balancing; the glidecam "HD" models are much better in this respect, but also more expensive

I got those impressions from this video:
http://philipbloom.net/2010/10/12/tutorial-on-using-a-glidecam-with-a-dslr/

I'd like to know how difficult other people are finding the left-right and front-back balance on cheaper models

also, I thought I could use my macro rails on top of the flycam nano, for fine balancing; has anyone tried this?
 
I believe Em over at cheesycam did a comparison and said Nano is better. For what it's worth, I have a Nano and like it. Hard to balance, but with practice it comes easy.
