FS-100 mount on Glidecam 4K

[Trademark]

So far this is my favorite way to mount the Firestore on a glidecam without buying any accesories or mounting kits. I would embed pictures but i took them way to big.

firewire goes around the arm strap and then through it

Used a strap to keep the belt clip secure on the pole, the weight screw is also used to put a SMALL amount of pressure on FS to keep it in, yellow tape for no scratches.

Kinda tied up the firewire so that it would stay out front and be clear from the handle when using the glidecam. There is some velcro on the bottom of the firestore to keep it secure with the bottom. Its pretty secure and with the velcro it doesent move at all and offset the balance under quick movement.

It's still a little bottom heavy but i need the weight to offset the firestore, The sliding bar is as short as it can get, so I may have to add a little weight to the top for perfect balance.

Still I'm sure someone else must have mounted the FS-100 like this? Can I make any improvements on this setup?

I'd lengthen the bar, more stablility the longer it is.

when the bar is lengthened and I stop or start suddenly the bottom is actively heavier so id need to add weight up top if I want to lengthen the bar.

Ah, now I get it, right, you're right.
