Weapon Woven CF Body Vibration "Tuning Fork"

[Charles Bergquist]

Just upgraded to the Woven CF body and anytime it's bumped I get a vibration or something similar to a "tuning fork". It basically feels hollow or less solid than the DSMC 1 body. I emailed support and they said this is with all Weapon bodies. Is this what everyone is experiencing? If so, how are you all doing vehicle hard mounts with that amount of vibration?

Thanks all for your time.

The carbon body is thinner than the metal body and the carbon is much more rigid. Similar thing in carbon tripods, they pass more vibration. It really shouldn't be an issue though. Put a cage on the camera if you're worried. It'll give you more Mount points for your car rigs too

I had an issue with this as well, I was told it is the plates of the cooling system vibrating... part of the design. A cage will not help reduce the sound, as it is not structural.
