question

I want to purchase these C-Stands along with casters. Which size of Impact casters fit these stands?
Asked by: Robert R.
The turtle base is not designed to accept casters and I don't think modifying it would be the best plan for reasons of stability. I have found the Kupo Runway Base Stand to be the best alternative for a wheeled base. I think it's at least as good as the Manfrotto, but it costs less than $100. It accepts the same 1 1/8 junior riser spigot as the Turtle stand base. I've not used the Mathews equivalent - I hear from colleagues that it's good, but I'd rather have three Kupos for the money and enough change left over for a slap up dinner at Mrs Muggins' Pie Shop.

question

Are the T-handles Captive?
Asked by: Andy F.
No they’re not. For others, captive means they can’t be removed...captive handles loosen all the way then hit a stop that prevents them from falling free.

Asked by: CURTIS
If you will be connecting the Godox AD400Pro Witstro All-in-One Outdoor Flash directly to the 5/8" stud on the top of the center column on the Impact Turtle Base C-Stand Kit (10.75', Chrome), then no additional adapter would be needed. If, however, you plan to connect the Godox AD400Pro Wistro All-In-One Outdoor Flash to the grip arm included with the Impact Turtle Base C-Stand Kit (10.75', Chrome), then I would recommend purchasing the Impact 6" Baby Pin with Collar 1/4 and 3/8" Tap, B&H # IMSRP110P. This would be inserted into the grip head on the grip arm, and would allow you to connect the Godox AD400Pro Wistro All-In-One Outdoor Flash onto the grip arm.
