5.0 out of 5 starsPerfect for my BMPCC 4k!

I have had three gimbals over the last few years. This blows them all away! It's so much easier to balance, to calibrate and to control. The motors are so much sturdier and less finicky. This is a great product, which also needs much less time to get used to operating than others I have used. Having an LCD control panel is incredibly useful if, like me, you don't want to have to get out your smartphone and boot up the app, connect, etc.
GOOD POINTS
Well-built
Highly adjustable in terms of sensitivity and control.
IT CAN POWER THE BMPCC 4k!!! Battery power is always an issue with these cameras, and you don't want to keep stopping to change batteries.
You don't have to rebalance every time you take the camera off and on again.
I'm delighted with it.
A couple of tips.
Here's a power cable that works well to power the BMPCC 4k.

Here's a mount for an SSD that is lightweight and won't interfere with gimbal movement.

And Smallrig do a perfect offset plate to move the camera over a little to counter the imbalance of the design of the camera.
Buy these things and you're sorted!
Only one tiny suggestion to the designers. When you use the joystick to tilt, it's very hard to stop a tilt without the camera coming to a slightly sudden stop. It would be wonderful to include an option to smooth out or feather the starts and stops of joystick-controlled movements.
