Embodiments of the disclosure include a stand, such as a tripod, including a deployment assembly for adjusting a height of the stand by, for example, adjusting a length of a telescoping tripod leg. In an embodiment, the deployment assembly adjusts the length of the tripod leg when the user actuates a control device, such as a trigger or a button. The control device may advantageously be located near the top of a tripod leg, which may facilitate leveling and/or heightening of the tripod. In addition, the deployment assembly may include a rack and gear assembly that controls relative movement of a lower leg segment with respect to an upper leg segment.
