Looks pretty good to me. What kind of poles did you use?

I think your rig needs some more stiffness.

The first two shots were taken with an aluminum extending painter pole which was just horrible for stability.

The last two were taken with a 10 foot EMT conduit which is just a beast :D It's stable but I'm going to need something longer in length.

Any suggestions for more stiffness Dean?

Wahey! Not the first time I've been asked that ;)

Not sure on stiffness, but I'd suggest pushing it even slower, most are mine are done at way, way below walking speed. 1mph ish!
