The CT-1 has a very smooth and user friendly movement. The tripod comes with a very nice carry bag. I can’t wait to get it in the field. Height adjustment is very fluid.

Super fast shipping. Well packaged.
Used for military field trial experiment to provide consistent stable platform- removing external influences to data- with multiple devices interchanged.
Without question this exceeded expectations.
Able to operate 7.62mm rifles using arca Swiss plate and swap out to optics and other weapon platforms with no issues.
Likely that more of these will be purchased for subsequent experiment phases
