You get what you pay for, first class build quality and functionality, don't hesitate just buy it.

When you've got all the cables, parts etc. that come in the bag (which is great, but Ideally it would be awesome if someone could come up with a carry case that allows you to have it fully setup, lock the arms and pack up ready for quick use.Words of warning, unsurprisingly for something this expensive. This is not a toy.If you've already owned something like an Osmo gimbal for the phone, it is a massive step up in terms of what it can do and as such, needs a little more time and consideration to get it working well for you.However, spend some time watching Youtube users (there are many excellent pro level videographers who have reviewed it) instead of trying to decipher the translated from Chinese manuals.Getting it all put together, balanced and ready for use is just a process, plus, think about a soldier taking apart and putting together a rifle over and over again, they reason they do it is to be able to do it without looking and would recommend spending some time doing the same with this, know every part and connection so when you are out in the field, you can be ready to go in minutes.Another thing to think about is the sheer weight of the thing, with a metal cinema lens on it, it is HEAVY. So next on the wishlist is a vest steadicam (Again, there are Youtubes out there of guys who have built them for far less than the pro options) otherwise, get cracking with some weights on forearm curls and apply manual handling techniques in use to protect your lower back.Lastly, if you are using a manual focus (as a lot of folks will be) lens. Get the 3D follow focus (which is NOT included in the pro combo). Although using the wheel or onscreen (with the Raveneye system) is doable, in a practical situation where you're thinking about the shot, talent, framing etc., it's a lot to think about at the same time. There's a reason it's a separate person on a film set.

Well made and very good interface

Very awesome bit of kit. I am a videographer and had been wanting to get an RS2 for a number of months. Once I had saved enough I dived in. Getting up and running was a bit frustrating, and I had a few teething problems whilst getting used to using the kit, but with a bit of practice it is now my used kit and I have bought quite a lot of accessories for it.

This gimbal is bad ass

This is the last time I make a big purchase from Amazon. Advertised new, it arrived already opened and some of the items inside (video sender and focus motor) had been removed from film. This means they could have been swapped for faulty units. I didn't get that far as to test it all because the handle wouldn't lock into the gimbal. Returned an I've now waited 48 hours for the refund.

It has good stability, but at the same time you'll find it to be quite heavy and can't hold it for long.I also noticed it overheats.

The product build was solid and love the carbon fibre arms however the main reason I purchased this item was for the Raveneye active track which after numerous attempts and tutorials on connecting the right cables and switching to the correct WiFi setting on my phone just did not work. I've read many forums with people complaining about the same issue.I wanted this to be my camera assistant as I shoot videos alone but without the active track its not fit for purpose so I have to give 2 stars
