Glad you brought this up. Been meaning to tell others. This past summer while going to the owl nest, I got to check out numerous tripods. There were a lot of Artcise and Innorels being used. Both the 80 and 90 versions. Got to actually see them in action. With equipment heavier and more expensive than mine. So impressed I bought the Innorel version. Same as the one you listed without the cellphone mount. Holds my D7100 and Sigma 150-600mm Sport with ease. Got mine for 179.00. Things have gone up. Fantastic tripod.

So impressed I looked into CF gimbals as well. Innorel makes the CH5. But, you have to buy from places such as Aliexpress. Got mine on Ebay. Again, love it.

Both make a 90 version. Innorel rt90c. Artcise as90c. Both are beasts. There's Youtube video of a guy doing pull ups from the Innorel.

Here's the RT80C compared to my Vanguard Alta Pro 263AT. I'm tall but, most of the time the smallest section isn't even extended. Nothing is level in the woods. Get it close with the legs and level the camera in seconds with the bowl adapter. Game changer.
I've used it a LOT this summer with no complaints.

This SEEMS to tick all the boxes for what makes a decent tripod - the downside - getting it here from China in today's shipping climate

I bought the AS80C version, sent it back. Ordered the larger AS90C for bigger bowl and have been happy for a year. Not super light, but good extension and I feel has good stability. Large diameter legs for vibration reduction and easy to carry on my shoulder.
