The Ready Rig VEGA Upgrade v2 screws onto the Ready Rig GS vest around the lower back area and also secures to the ProArms via integrated bands. This way, it adds an improved lift system that ensures better shock absorption, better stability, and more balanced boom action. At the same time, it redistributes the weight of your load to your legs and core, so you also get reduced fatigue and can shoot for longer times. The VEGA Upgrade v2 also provides a handgrip on the rear that a spotter can hold on to and guide you when you work on difficult elaborate shots.

Q: 1. I am a pretty big guy. Will this vest and support system fit someone who wears an XXL shirt size? I have more size in my shoulders than belly. Thanks.

A: The belt size ranges from 28-44 on the Ready Rig GS. If you normally wear pants within that size range, this should fit fine.

Q: 2. Can you upgrade to the GS arms later?

A: You are in luck, yes, the original GS can be upgraded with ProArms at a later time.

Q: 3. Hi guys, short woman here. I'm only 5'3 and I have a Glidecam vest, but it's huge on me because I'm super short. Can anyone tell me what the length of the vest is to see if it'll fit my torso properly?

A: Just measured mine - The length of the padded section that will sit against your back is 50cm. The size of the vest is 100% adjustable so I'm confident that you will be able to find a good fit. The height of the shoulder pads can be adjusted up and down to accommodate all shapes and sizes!

Q: 5. Will this work with the new DJI RS 3 Pro?

A: If you have a supporting device for the RS3 Pro, then it will be able to attach to the Ready Rig GS Stabilizer. You would need a Tilta Basic Ring Grip (or other similar support).

Q: 6. Will this work with the Ronin-M?

A: Hi Erik,Absolutely, I love mine! I have the Ronin M and the Ready Rig (with standard arms) and it is one of the best accessories I own! It's liberating, no more sore arms. I have been able to shoot continuously with my Ronin M and Ready Rig on jobs for over 4 hours with no fatigue..NO FATIGUE in my arms or back. I cannot comment on the Pro Arms but the standard arm design pefectly supports my Ronin M, Canon 7D MKii w/24 Shot Silencer follow focus, Atomos Ninja Blade recorder and TASCAM DR-70D mounted on the Ronin M cross bar. The Ready Rig is built like a tank and worth every penny. Just my 2 cents. - Chris
