    Hello . Thanks you for this work . I’m using the new Rs3 with the Thanos SE but I have difficulty to put the gimbal in the arm attachment if I want it to be align correctly . So I need to twist it to 90 degrés. To get it right align in the middle of the arm and use correctly the pan. I don’t know if it the good way . If I put it in the regular way without twist it , it looks like the arm not align with it and it is strange with the pan . Correct ? I saw that you are using the adaptateur 1/4 screw in your video . But I don’t understand how you can remove so quickly the tripod and fixe the Ronin in one clic …. What is your quick release are you using to do it ?? Ulanzi falcam F38 ? Or similar ? Because I can’t imagine to do this with unscrew all the time the tripod and screw the gimbal on the adaptateur … sorry for my English . I hope it is enough clear .This point is very important for me and I think it is very confusing . Thanks for your answer .

    You said about tilting up and down the gimbal clamp, but can it rotate left and right? Thinking if I would attach the RS2 to a tripod, and essentially get a Thanos PRO II, or Tilta Float style thing going on

    Great video. I just picked this item up today. I'm thinking it may be a faulty model... No matter how loose I make the 2 knobs on the arm, it still points upward. I can push it down with some force, but then it pops right back up. Am I doing something wrong, or does it sound like I may have gotten a dud and need to return?

If I have to stand around for an hour with the RS2 I just want a support, which this seems to be custom made. How is the fit and comfort? is it pretty good support for your back and where's the weight distribution most felt? thanks so much for the review

    Incorrect design. The front mount gives a load to the lower back. And all the load should be carried out on the hips! The arm must be attached to the side. Неправильная конструкция. Переднее крепление дает нагрузку на поясницу. А вся нагрузка должна осуществляться на бедра! Крепление руки должно быть с боку.
