The rigid arm is provided on one end with a ballast weight (61, 61′) and includes a damping system formed of least two separated liquid tanks (70, 70′) that are partly filled with liquids and placed at the same distance from the horizontal center line (100). The tanks (70, 70′) are fluidly connected with each other so that liquid can be exchanged between the tanks damps a swinging yaw motion of the rigid arm (51, 51′) around the vertical axis of the turntable (80).
