Improved Stabilizer Concept in Design Stage

Title says it all.
It's not really a DIY project, as I will apply for patent of the innovations that are mine, citing priors as per custom.
I DO want input and will name valued contributors on the application and will split any revenue thereof.
So unfortunately, we somehow have to make contributions confidential. If this is possible within the context of this forum, great.
So please, willing stabilizer gurus, please PM me so I can hand you NDA's etc.:thumbsup:

I do not understand. You want help from us to put together a stabilizer?

Actually. I landed on an innovation that will make for much easier stabilization of several of the designs already out there. Discovered it last year while fiddling around on my own solution. I decided that there were some great ideas out there but a couple of concepts need to be tested.

I don't share patentable innovations until Patent Pending time, but bolting my solution onto what's out there requires more than my mind.

So I'm impressed with the work that this chap has done, but guess what, no contact e-mail....

So far I see that his gimbal solutions is very slick. Add my bolt on solution and the rig becomes very rock steady.
Next. the whole 'Merlin' concept of balancing via the angled rod seems ... eccentric as there's a lot of effort expended in finessing what is obviously an asymmetrical solution.
Finally. The placement of camera, counterweight and so on is less than efficient and results in much effort in balancing.
Put it all together, I see a new solution that uses current gimbal design, but abandons the asymmetrical balance arm and re-arranges what goes where.
I'm a designer but not a very good engineer and a rank hack at DIY.
I don't have the luxury of tons of time to spend doing it myself, so I'm willing to lead a team to get this off the ground...
Otherwise, it goes to the 'backburner' for a year or so.
