@@ScottyMakesStuff I absolutely love this thing. It catches a lot of attention and I’ve sold a bunch to people at podcasting conferences 🤙🏽 Need to try the less beefy one for casual travel.
I bought one. It extremely hard to get the pocket 3 far enough into the case for the thread in the bottom to engage. And, even worse, it is almost impossible to get it back out of the case. They also make a roll-bar-umbrella attachment. The problem with it is that it encroaches in the field of view in the top of the frame. I have emailed them about this over a week ago with no answer. If you have problems, you are on your own.
The screw works fairly easily (it's longer than you would think), make sure you push the camera all the way down, and it may seem obvious but make sure the screw is lined up to the hole and turn the screw clockwise. As far as removing it. It was also simple, but to ensure I didn't pull the gimbal apart, I completely remove the set screw and push it out with a skinny Allen key shottr.cc/s/1Y7g/SCR-20240429-m9w.jpeg
Man, that was my first thought as well, but hey, even if I'd use it for the plain safe transportation, it'll do it's purpose. The bag that comes with the creator combo is nice but soft, if it gets clamped between other stuff in the bag, or whatever other risky situation...I also experienced the unit being more stable if used with a case where the weight is increased and the grip becomes more secure. I've got a cheapo case that I might just replace with the one by Scotty
