The DJI Ronin 2 3-Axis Stabilizer, ProArm & VEGA Kit assembled by B&H pairs the Ronin 2 camera gimbal with additional support components that add vertical stabilization and transfer the rig's weight to your back and hips, enabling you to comfortably and safely extend the duration of your shoot. Kit items include the VEGA vertical upgrade with counterbalance bands, a back/waist harness rig with adjustable telescoping arms, an inflatable lumbar support pad, a pair of spindle mounts, and a soft carrying case.
The versatile Ronin 2 gimbal from DJI is suitable for use either handheld or mounted in a variety of ways including onto a drone, Steadicam, vehicle mount, and more. An update from the original Ronin, this motorized stabilization system is suitable for a range of camera and lens configurations, boasting a payload capacity of 30 pounds. This means it can be used for everything from DSLRs up to cinema cameras such as the ARRI ALEXA Mini or Sony FS7.
Like its predecessor, the Ronin 2 features support for underslung, upright, and briefcase operation modes to help you achieve the best angle. However, it has been redesigned to enable easy transition between upright and underslung modes without changing the position of the camera. It also offers several other improvements, such as enhancements to the control software and physical design to simplify taking complex shots without sacrificing performance, all while making important functions more readily accessible.

The Ready Rig VEGA Upgrade v2 screws onto the Ready Rig GS vest around the lower back area and also secures to the ProArms via integrated bands. This way, it adds an improved lift system that ensures better shock absorption, better stability, and more balanced boom action. At the same time, it redistributes the weight of your load to your legs and core, so you also get reduced fatigue and can shoot for longer times. The VEGA Upgrade v2 also provides a handgrip on the rear that a spotter can hold on to and guide you when you work on difficult elaborate shots.
- Only compatible with the Ready Rig GS + ProArms stabilizer
- Upgraded PolyCore lift technology allows for fingertip control through the entire boom range.
- 70% Improvement in vertical axis stabilization
- Rear handgrip for spotter guidance
- VEGA Arm Clamps provide quick stowing and redeployment of ProArms plus additional grip and safety when adjusting power settings.
- User installable with detailed and easy-to-follow written and video instructions
Use the Ready Rig GS Stabilizer + ProArm Kit to transfer the weight of a gimbal-mounted camera away from an operator's arms and shoulders. By redistributing the load to the user's hips and core, this rig enables you to extend your shooting time and lessens operator fatigue. It also reduces the bounce motion sometimes seen during handheld gimbal shots. The Ready Rig GS Stabilizer works with any gimbal in standard or underslung mode.
The Ready Rig ProArms increase the basic GS Stabilizer's load range from 30 to 40 pounds. They telescope from 23 to 37", producing an effective boom range of 55". For greater operating convenience, the ProArms also feature 1/4"-20 and 3/8-16" threads, enabling you to mount an onboard monitor to either arm.
The Ready Rig GS with ProArms features a load capacity range of 1 to 40 pounds, carbon fiber support arms, and an aluminum frame. Its slim, compact profile suits it for use in tight spaces and car interior shots. A soft, zippered carrying case is included with this kit.
The VEGA PolyCore Band Set from Ready Rig includes two counterbalance bands for the Ready Rig VEGA stabilizer system. They're the same as the originals that come with the VEGA.
Add lumbar support when using a heavy camera rig with a support vest using this Lumbar Support upgrade from Ready Rig. The support pad is designed to fit into the back plate of any Ready Rig vest, such as the GS VEGA, GS + ProArms, or GS, to support your lower back.
The pad is adjustable by adding or removing the air in the bag with the attached pumping bulb. It is easy to install and adjust for your comfort, allowing you to carry your rig for longer durations.

Ready Rig GS
This pair of 30mm aluminum GS Spindle Mount from CineMilled allows you to adjust the force needed to tilt your MōVI Pro Ring when used with the ReadyRig GS. By sliding the spindle mounts up the side bars of the MōVI Pro Ring, you get more bottom-heavy and require more effort to tilt it. By sliding them down, you make the MōVI Pro Ring more neutral and need less effort to tilt.
