Galaxy Arm
01Galaxy Arm
Designed for optimized performance throughout its lifting range, the Galaxy Arm uses coaxial stainless-steel springs and high-quality bearings in every single joint to deliver an ultra-smooth shot as you follow the subject.
It absorbs all jerks, bumps and shakes on even the roughest terrain, whether you walk or run, and soft bumpers at each end of travel let you boom the arm right to its limits without shot-disturbing clunks.

Made of breathable materials with a double padding of soft, high-quality foam, the vest offers an extremely comfortable experience for longer shoots, and it fits snugly on almost all body types by simply adjusting the straps.

The Galaxy Arm was designed with one main focus: to be one of the most user-friendly arms available today.
Spring tension adjustment knobs let you adjust the elasticity of the springs and precisely calibrate the arm for the different setups you use, and the arm easily interchanges from right-hand to left-hand operation, a feature that makes it unique.

Do you sell the 19mm bushing for galaxy connector spool to 22mm redking handle?
The Galaxy arm comes with two bushings for 22mm mounting in addition to the standard 16mm pin. Using the 22mm bushing, you can mount the Redking handle without any issue.
Will this item work with Zhiyun Weebil-S? It has a 1/4 thread on the bottom.
Yes, it will work using the FLCM-GA. The plate includes both 1/4'' and 3/8'' camera bolts. If your gimbal has either of these thread options, it can be mounted.
Would this work with the crane 3 lab? is there an adapter I can get to make the two compatible? I really would like to add this to my setup.
Yes, it will work using the FLCM-GA. The plate includes both 1/4'' and 3/8'' camera bolts. If your gimbal has either of these thread options, it can be mounted.
Does the CRANE 3S handle fit on the stud mount of the arm?
Yes, it will work using the FLCM-GA. The plate includes both 1/4'' and 3/8'' camera bolts. If your gimbal has either of these thread options, it can be mounted.
Will this work with a Glidecam HD 2000?
If the Glidecam HD-2000 has either a 16mm or 22mm mounting option, then this arm and vest will be compatible with it.
Will a Glidecam XR-PRO fit onto the pin of this unit?
If the Glidecam XR-PRO has either a 16mm or 22mm mounting option, then this arm and vest will be compatible with it.
Would this work with a Dji rs3 pro holding a sony a7s3 and a 24-70 lens?
You can mount the DJI RS3 Pro on GLXY-AV with the help of FLCM-GA. Here is the link for reference:

Would this work for shooting still images? My wrists and arms get very tired during shoots and I am wondering is this could be a solution.
We recommend using a tripod or monopod instead, since you would still need to hold the camera while it's mounted on the arm. This is just to help relieve some of the weight for bigger video camera rigs.
Is the payload of 22 pounds total payload for the arm/vest? So if my camera rig is 12 pounds and my stabilizer 6-7 pounds, I will be flying 18-19 pounds. Am I good?
Yes, the total capacity is 22 pounds. If you are in the 18-19 pound range including your stabilizer this should work fine.
Can I mount a firearm to this?
We have not tested this with a firearm, but as long as it is under the 10kg weight limit it should be good to go.
I am looking for a way to connect my flycam galaxy vest to DJI Ronin RSC2 gimbal.
You can attach the Flycam Galaxy arm and vest to DJI Ronin RSC2 gimbal with the help of Flycam Gimbal Adapter, below is the link for the same.

Looking to adapt my flycam galaxy to add a steadimate-RS for my Ronin RS2 gimbal. The mount needs a 1/2in post instead of the 16mm. Do you have a replacement post that is 1/2in or an adapter to step the 16mm down to 1/2in?
Currently we only have the 16mm post (minimum) for Flycam Galaxy Steadycam Arm & Steadycam Vest (GLXY-AV)
"A question about your Flycam Galaxy Steadycam Arm & Steadycam Vest. Will I be able to connect my dji RS 3 Pro directly on FLCM-GA or FLCM-GAXS?"
Yes, DJI RS3 Gimbal can be directly mounted on Flycam Galaxy Arm & Vest either with the help of the Flycam Gimbal Adapter ( FLCM-GA) or can use Flycam G-Axis Stabilizer (FLCM-GAXS).
There is 1/4"-20 Mounting thread present in the DJI RS 3 Pro which he can connect with the plate of FLCM-GA or FLCM-GAXS.
Can i put larger cameras or just a dslr ?
Yes, you can put a variety of cameras as this arm and vest will perfectly work for total weight up to 10kg(21lbs). We provide two springs with the Galaxy Arm, Blue marked spring is for 1-5kg and the Red marked spring is for 5-10kgs. It does take considerable time and practice to learn but the vest and arm will help with fatigue and getting steady shots. The build quality is surprisingly good.
Will this work with a glidecam 4000 and hd series?
Yes, it will perfectly work with your glidecam stabilizer.
What is the shipping weight of this kit? it does not include table champ? thanks!

What are the minimum and maximum chest and waist sizes the vest will fit ?
The Vest will fit to the sizes as follows :
Minimum Chest Size : 38 inches
Minimum Waist Size : 28 inches
Maximum Chest Size : 52 inches
Maximum Waist Size : 60 inches
Do the vest and arm help with stabilization?
Yes it does help, however the most important part of stabilization is first balancing the camtree initially. That would mean placing all items that will be used on the day of shooting (ie, Monitor, Battery, Camera, Lens, Wires, additional mounts, etc) for proper accuracy in the balancing process. It will take some time to correctly balance, but once you have the correct balance of the stabilizer, the arm and vest will be extremely helpful in the final stabilization.
Does the Stabilizer comes with the vest ?
No, It comes with an Arm and Vest only. The Camtree stabilizer is 'NOT INCLUDED' in this kit.
What is the diameter of the main shaft?
The main shaft (spool adapter) has the diameter of 16mm. We provide two bushes to add onto it to make it easily adaptable to the stabilizers with the handle's inner diameter of 19mm and 22mm.
Does the vest have a carrying case too?
No, The vest doesn't come in a carry case.

Replacement parts of the product will be provided at nominal cost (covering the cost price of the replacement parts only) to the customers after the Warranty Period has expired.
Great product! The build quality is superior to the Glide Gear that this was ordered to replace.
I was extremely surprised to find this box sitting in my house this morning. Speed of shipping ludicrously fast. I give it 5 stars across the board, but that's only because I just received it today. I'll have to come back and rate that section later. Reasonably priced and accessible for lower budget Productions. Hopefully it lasts for a while
Quite stiff, excellent material, totally professional.
Fantastic bit of kit , bought it as a gun mount for airsoft ;)
