The AC-1321 Aluminum Tripod with BA-106A Ball Head from Oben is a lightweight (2.9 lb) tripod that provides reliable support for any camera and lens up to 6.6 lb.
The tripod's 3-section aluminum legs and center column extend to a maximum height of 57.5", and when folded, the entire system is a compact 23.4". Flip locks on each leg enable extremely fast deployment and retraction of leg stages. Three leg angles are possible, and pull-tab locks secure the legs in their notches. The legs' angles are independently adjustable to accommodate shooting on uneven terrain. At the widest leg angle, the tripod sits extremely close to the ground to facilitate low-angle shooting. The tripod's feet feature rubber tips which are great for shooting on slippery or hard surfaces.
The tripod's rapid center column extends with a twist of the wingnut locking knob. For protection when it's retracted quickly, there's a rubber damper that protects the center-post collar. Locking screws underneath the collar enable you to fasten the head securely to the chassis. By unscrewing the spring-loaded hook at the bottom end, the center column becomes removable and reversible, for a second method of achieving extremely low-angle shots. The center column's hook holds a counterweight, in case you need additional system stability.
The BA-106A is a simple ball head with one ratcheting locking knob to control all motion. The knob allows you to unlock the ball so that you can quickly orient your camera properly, retighten the knob, and return to shooting. This enables fast setup changes, and frees you to keep a finger on the trigger while you're making a quick adjustment to the head's orientation. The ball head has a 90° notch which facilitates shooting in portrait orientation. A bull's eye bubble level ensures your camera is level on both the horizontal and vertical axes.
The included quick-release plate attaches to your camera via its standard 1/4"-20 screw. With your camera attached to the quick-release plate, it easily snaps and locks into place on the ball head and is quickly removed by pressing the locking lever. A safety lock on the lever prevents your QR plate and camera from accidental release.
This tripod also includes a fitted, padded carry case with a removable shoulder strap, two heavy-duty zippers, and an interior zipper pocket. A tool clip with two hex wrenches for adjusting the center column and the leg joints is also included. It snaps onto any of the tripod legs for easy access.

Can you change out the head to use a fluid head?
Can you change out the head to use a fluid head?
Yes. The Oben BA-106A Single Lever Ball Head included with the Oben AC-1321 Aluminum Tripod is removable. The top base of the center column has reversible 1/4"-20 & 3/8"-16 male threads, so if your fluid head has a flat base and uses either1/4"-20 & 3/8"-16 threads, it may be used on the Oben AC-1321 Aluminum Tripod.

Does BA-106A ball head allow for smooth panning when shootings a video?
It does not. You can shoot video while using this tripod, but it will not allow you to smoothly pan. You would need a tripod with a fluid video head for that. The Magnus VT-350 Video Tripod with Fluid Head, B&H # MAVT350, is a much better choice for that.

question
Is this tripod compatible with the pixio system
Only if you order the additional 1/4 to 3/8 adapter. Oben 3/8 -16 to 1/4 -20 Reducer Bushing, that increases the 1/4 to a 3/8 to fit to Pixio Robot.
