RVO Heavy Duty AZ Mount Head With Vixen Clamp

Just noticed the above on the RVO website and it got my attention immediately. A 10KG payload whilst weighing only 850g, without counterweight or clamp. Which is lighter than the Scopetech Mount Zero.

Thoughts anyone? I can find no review.

Thank you, I should have remembered that thread...

Seems the saying: If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

I really wanted to like this mount as it looked like such a good idea. Back to the drawing board on this one I think.
