  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

VF | Brook's FMJ for Epic-X... free upgrade [RED & Arri version]

Quick education for those out there from a military guy here. The NATO Standard is different from the M1913 standard or picatinny in the way it clamps to the rail. The NATO clamps from the flat portion on top and the underside of the angles. The M1913 clamps from the sides of the rail. This thread took a turn....:-)
 
For those who haven't seen it, here's the FMJ on a Scarlet... :)

I would love to know if the Red Ribs line up with Brook's FMJ Top plate.

If they did, you could mix and match in some configurations. (Ex: FMJ Top Plate / Red Ribs / Red QR System)

Where is Ketch's equipment manager when you need him? :smiley:
 
Also, does the Brain fit in the RED EPIC pelican case with the FMJ setup...sorry if this has been answered already. I imagine it will squeeze in there.

Did you guys ever develop the side arms that dont bolt to the bottom for those who use REDs quick release system?

They're still on the "to do" list, but there are so many other items on there as well... :)

You could probably force it in there... but it wouldn't be pretty.
 
Brook, do you plan to make a separate Scarlet version of the FMJ Top without ribs?
 
Does anyone know if you can use the Full Metal Jacket Bottom Plate + Full Metal Jacket 15mm Light Weight Standard Bracket with the RED EPIC Tactical Ribcage Pack?
From the pictures online it appears you can but I want to make sure.

Since RED's version of the cage attaches to the side of the body [instead of the bottom plate], there should be no clearance issues.
 
Hey folks,

Based on requests from rental houses in Los Angeles, we've made the FMJ for Arri baseplates as well! Pending interest we'll put it up in the store. :)

how is this different from other bottom plate? what makes this an ARRI ? the hole placement? What bottom plate is this for? thanks! in other words, whats the LA market solution that works with this? thanks!
 
The bottom plate is slightly thinner, allowing the use of an Arri baseplate [taller than a RED baseplate] while maintaining proper spacing between the iris rods and lens. Several rental houses and individuals had wanted to use Arri BP-9 sliding baseplates [from the 435 and 235] with our full cage.
