The FLYCAM Arm Brace Support wraps around the arm, securing by hook-and-loop fasteners, and provides a metal post for mounting select mechanical stabilizers. It supports the FLYCAM 3000, 5000, and Nano, as well as many 3rd-party models. Providing cushion comfort while distributing the weight of the stabilizer over your forearm, it reduces arm stress and fatigue and allows for easier and more controlled handling of the stabilizer.
The metal post on the end measures 0.72" in diameter on top and 0.85" on the bottom. The control handle of the stabilizer mounts directly on top of this post. Any handle that meets these diameter measurements is compatible. With your hand over the stabilizer handle, you can then operate the stabilizer with better stability. The handle doesn't need to be secured in any way but rather just slides on from the top. The arm brace can be worn over the left or right arm and fits virtually all arm sizes.

It's does the job
Well...it works BUT the padding is pretty stiff and not the most comfortable thing out there, though for the price I would not expect it to be. It's still way better to have this than to haul a red king around with gear mounted than without it. The real bummer is that it's basically two pieces. You have the part that wraps around your arm and then you have a sleeve that the flat bar part of the metal mount slides into. The problem is that you have two sets of straps. one that is supposed to pull in one direction while you wrap the other set of straps around your arm to tighten down the pad around your arm. This second set of straps is supposed to pull in the opposite direction of the first set of straps to keep the flat bar centered and keep it from sliding around while you put the thing on. The straps that you attach first to the bar are way too long which makes them effectively useless. They don't pull in the because they are not short enough. The second set of straps just keeps pulling in the opposite direction making the flat bar slide up to the inside of your arm instead of keeping it underneath your arm. Yes it is still possible to get it on your arm and make the whole thing work effectively but you REALLY have to wrestle with it. once it's on you really don't want to take it off until you are finished shooting. If it wasn't for those overly long an useless straps I'd give it 4 stars. Even with the strap issues it's still better than not having it. Wrist fatigue isn't near as much of an issue with this thing. The only part of your arm that gets the work out is your bicep and shoulder muscles. Honestly if you have the cash and it fits how you shoot I'd just save up and get the vest.
