I was planing to mount a gimbal with GH5 on a low cost steadycam arm to save my arms and back from breaking. When I started to google for this combination (as the Gimbal will not fit onto the arm with some additional parts in between), I found this:

I searched for this on PV and could not find it at all, thats why I start this topic.

Annother (interlaced..) short review:
Is anybody using this and could give some further insights about usability, strenghts, weaknesses and whatever comes to mind?
And: Why are there no chinese knockoffs of this? Doesn´t look overly complicated, and could be produced and sold much cheaper..
Thank you for your replies! Easy Rig is nice as well, but truely far less versatile. As is the serene spring on a vest. A regular steadycam vest + arm seems vastly overscaled for my usecase (GH5 + 12-35 + medium light gimbal) and would basicly double the weight of my equipment.
So it looks like I have to go for the expensive original for now. Even if I do not like this result, its an answer. ;)
I use it for over a year with the Ronin and a FS7. Made me life so much easier. The RR has a small footprint, you get into a golf cart, fast from low to high. It's way more versatile than the EasyRig. Get here for more info https://www.facebook.com/groups/101076270282163
Go for an easyrig knock off instead:
You can get a knock off serene spring as well:
