BLKBRD deluxe Quad Tube Mantis kit with everything you need to get up and running on an Easy Rig model including Cinema, Stabil, Vario & Mini Max Supports cameras from 5-38 lbs with an increased boom range and sweet spot over the Dual Tube version (must use the appropriate band for your cameras weight).
Quad Tube - Most Popular!
The Quad Tube configuration adds an additional circuit of elastic which increases your boom range and sweet spot and improves vertical stabilization. This configuration is great for the Easy Rig or mounting to speedrail. The Quad tube is the ultimate configuration for performance and versatility. A Quad tube can easily be configured into a Dual Tube, just add some extra 6 ft elastics to your order.
Easy Rig Adapter
Mount one or two Mantis units to any model of Easy Rig. Our adapter provides two steel pins that the Mantis interfaces with. There is no modification required to your Easy rig, simply attach our clamp in front or behind of the stock Easy Rig string. Use the optional Mini Max adapters to reduce the clamp size. Compatibility: Easy Rig Cinema, Vario, Stabile, Mini Max, Mini Max Stabile.
Maglock Hook Kit
Self locking hook kit for Mantis. Securely attach to your camera to your Mantis. The hook spuds can mount to the side of your camera’s top handle or to the Universal Hook Adapter.
Universal Hook Adapter
Left/Right adjustable adapter compatible with our Mag lock hooks. Mount the Universal hook adapter to your camera’s top handle to interface with mag lock hooks. Easily adjust your left and right camera balance.
Easy Rig Quick Release Retrofit Kit
This kit allows you to take your existing “Easy Rig Quick Release” (Sold Separately) and adapt it to work with our elastics.
How long does it take to swap elastics?
Elastics can be swapped in about 2 minutes, less once you get the hang of it!
Can I use a Quad Tube with a WK Slingshot?
Yes! You can use any Mantis on a Slingshot, the long tubes were just designed to match the length of the Slingshot arms.
How long do the elastics last?
We’re anticipating 6 months of consistent usage and we recommend changing the elastics yearly. Make sure to inspect your bands often.
Are there different bands for the Easy Rig quick release retrofit kit?
Yes, you’ll see an option when purchasing bands to have them setup for the Easy Rig QR kit. Those bands will come with a factory installed connector that interfaces with the Easy Rig QR kit.
How is the Mantis packaged?
The Mantis will come in a box with a laser cut foam insert and lid foam designed for the Pelican Air 1555. Anything that does not fit in the case i.e. lots of extra elastics will ship separately.
What is the difference between a Dual Tube and a Quad Tube?
The Quad tube takes advantage of a longer amount of elastic giving you increased boom range and a larger sweet spot. It is slightly wider and heavier than the Dual Tube. You can always convert a Quad Tube into a Dual Tube, just make sure to order some 6 ft elastics or you’ll have a lot of extra elastic slack hanging out. You can also convert two Dual Tubes into a single Quad Tube with the purchase of an “Extra return roller” and 8 ft elastics.
