Description
Tilta Armor Man 3.0 Gimbal Support System
Extended Gimbal Operation with Full-Body Weight Distribution
The Tilta Armor Man 3.0 is a professional gimbal support system engineered to provide maximum support and comfort during long handheld shoots. Designed to transfer the weight of your gimbal setup from your arms to your core, this system allows operators to maintain fatigue-free, stable shooting over extended periods—without compromising agility or control.
Perfect for cinema, documentary, live sports broadcast, and event videography, the Armor Man 3.0 is compatible with most top-handle and ring-based gimbal systems, including the DJI Ronin 2, RS2, RS3 Pro, and more.
Dual Mechanical Arms with Shock Absorption
At the heart of the Armor Man 3.0 system are two mechanical arms with integrated shock-absorbing stabilizers. These arms can be mounted in two configurations:
-
Low Mode: Attached to the back of the vest
-
High Mode: Mounted on top of the vest
Each arm includes dual tension adjustment knobs, allowing you to finely tune the resistance based on the weight of your gimbal rig and your personal operating style. This makes it ideal for both lightweight mirrorless gimbal setups and heavy-duty cinema rigs.
Universal Gimbal Compatibility
The mechanical arms attach securely to any top-bar or ring-style gimbal system using the included support cups or mounting brackets. Simply slide the gimbal handle or ring into the attachment point and you’re ready to operate.
When used with Tilta’s Universal Gimbal Ring Adapters and the Nucleus M Wireless Follow Focus System, the Armor Man 3.0 transforms into a complete one-man operating solution with seamless lens control.
Quick Disengage and Rest Functionality
Between takes or during rig changes, the Armor Man 3.0 offers a quick-release function via pull-cord disengagement on each arm. The arms can then be easily parked on the side-mounted arm receivers so you can keep wearing the vest without removing the entire system. This streamlined workflow allows for faster resets and easier mobility on set.
Ergonomic, Adjustable Vest for All-Day Use
The included support vest is fully adjustable to fit a variety of body types and offers balanced weight distribution across the torso. This ergonomic design significantly reduces strain on the operator’s arms and shoulders, enabling longer shooting sessions with improved posture and comfort.
Optimized for Single-Operator Gimbal Control
With the right accessories, including Tilta’s Nucleus M or Nucleus Nano systems, the Armor Man 3.0 is capable of full wireless lens control, offering independent focus, iris, and zoom control—even in single-operator setups. This makes it the ideal solution for run-and-gun filmmakers, sports videographers, and cinematic storytellers.
