I am looking to create a 4x1.5m (6m total length approx) CF boom around 52mm OD.

Hi,

I'm looking to construct a camera pole using 3 x 2.5m tubes to give me about 6m reach after allowing for 1.5m of handling length. I'm looking for guidance on the size of tube needed to support between 3-5kg in the highest-stress configuration of horizontal with all weight at the end of the pole. I'm also wondering if it might make some sense to fit a 2.5m rod inside the first tube as it would strengthen the pivot point and could also act as a jointing method for the attaching the first of the remaining two tubes? Any jointing solution needs to allow for the three tubes to be separated for transport.

Guidance on tube specification to support the expected load would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Roy
