Systems and methods for maneuvering an endoscope are disclosed. The system includes: at least one first pivoting support that is pivotally attached to the endoscope and that permits the endoscope to pivot around at least one first axis of rotation at least one second pivoting support that is in communication with the at least one first pivoting support and that is adapted to rotate around at least one axis that is substantially orthogonal to said first axis so as to permit the endoscope to rotate around an insertion point into a body in at least two orthogonal axes and at least one controller attached to either the first or the second pivoting. The controller is adapted to provide a constant dynamic equilibrium between said endoscope and at least one of the pivoting supports.
