The AirFlo M Uno Plus is such great value with its ultra-compact size and its lightweight dual handle single suspension 4th axis stabilizer that's built to make your bumpy gimbal footage buttery smooth. Included are three different strength springs that allow a broad range of camera rigs from very light cameras to mide-sized cameras. It comes with the medium spring pre-installed, and the process of changing the springs can be done in minutes. The M Uno Plus takes seconds to be converted into an M Uno single-handed model.
We've taken out the 'fluff' and added all the best bits from our popular stabilizers and distilled it down into this new ultra-compact and lightweight 4th axis or z-axis stabilizer - and it's now the best 'bang for your buck' 4th axis stabilizer on the market by a long shot!
With the reversible 1/4-20 mount, you can attach most gimbals with a 1/4-20 in their base and also switch it from upright to inverted.

We're incredibly proud of this design!
The design goals were to reduce its size and make it work with more payloads while improving on our industry-standard bounce reduction at the same time.
We have had many requests for a reduced overall width to better suit smaller operators or for when you're working in tight spaces.
This system with 3 easily changed springs gives you one 4th axis for most of your rigs.
- Its packed size is small
- It's around half the weight of the Pro 3 Uno
- The bounce damping uses PTFE to give 'fluid-like' damping
- 8 stainless steel bearings to make it glide even softer.
- We made it strong but light with specialised internal strengthening
- This is now our most refined geometry - all payloads give silky smooth iso-elastic suspension.
- With dual hinged handles there's a virtually unlimited range of rigging positions
- Handles come with 1/4-20 attachment points for monitors and audio.
With practice using the AirFlo M Uno Plus and Uno you’ll be able to achieve footage that is at least as smooth as the bigger AirFlo Uno Plus and almost as smooth as our Glider Pro 3 Uno models in a much lighter rig. Once you master it you can even achieve footage that looks like it’s shot on rails! We have a comprehensive user guide to get you up and running as quickly as possible.
An Ultra-Compact Powerhouse
I think the huge plus for me is that I can take everything I need for a shoot; lights, audio recorder etc. and it all fits in a backpack so there’s no need for an assistant. But the real biggie is that you’ll be hard-pressed to see the difference between footage shot on the new AirFlo Uno Plus rig and the footage shot on a system totalling many thousands.
Some other important features;-
- It’s built extra tough for the rigours of day to day use
- It’s been designed to be quiet so your audio won’t be ruined by the creaks and squeaks that those cheap Z stabilizers have.
- Packs down into an ultra compact size for those times when backpack space is tight!
- You can leave the tools at home with virtually tool-less adjustments in only seconds, not minutes
- A wide range of payloads with 3 Springs included
- Adjustable damping - from hard action to soft shots
- Payload adjusters to adapt to your rig
- Adjust in minutes from upright to low (briefcase) mode with an under-slung gimbal
- Get buttery smooth footage with little practice
- Built super tough from lightweight engineering polymers - Only 0.6kg (1.3 pounds) when in use.
- Handles come with 1/4-20 attachment points for monitors and audio
- Comes almost fully assembled
