SmallRig Suction Cup Mounting Support Kit for Vehicle Panoramic Shooting 4380
This SmallRig Suction Cup Mounting Support Ki is a tri-suction-cup vehicle mount for small panoramic and action cameras weighing up to 0.5kg. Its telescopic pole extends from 28cm to 91cm, while the support rod forms a triangular structure, keeping lightweight 360° cameras steadier for low-altitude, drone-like vehicle footage.

FAQs:
What cameras can the SmallRig 4380 support?
The kit supports small panoramic and action cameras weighing up to 0.5kg and is compatible with cameras such as Insta360 X4, Insta360 X3, GoPro 12, GoPro 11, GoPro 10, GoPro 9, DJI Action 4, and DJI Action 3. It includes both a dual-claw action camera mount and a 1/4"-20 screw to accommodate different small camera bodies that can attach. The load limit should be treated as the working limit for vehicle movement, not just static mounting.
Where can the suction cups attach to a vehicle?
The three suction cups can adhere to smooth vehicle areas such as an engine bonnet, windscreen or side panel. Each suction cup needs a clean surface so the rubber can seal properly against the panel. The 20° adjustment at the suction cup joints lets the cups follow mildly curved bodywork rather than forcing the whole rig to sit flat.
How does the telescopic pole change the shot?
The telescopic pole extends from 28cm to 91cm, moving the camera further away from the vehicle body. Extending the camera increases the sense of space around the car and can create low-altitude, drone-like panoramic footage, especially with an Insta360 X3 or X4. Each section locks with a knob mechanism, so the pole resists collapsing back once set. The pole can also be used as a selfie stick when separated from the full setup.
How does the support structure reduce movement?
The kit uses a telescopic rod, a support rod, and a suction cup layout to create a triangular support structure. A triangle resists flex better than a single straight arm because load and vibration are spread between more contact points. The fully enclosed rod clamp holds the support rod firmly against the telescopic pole, while silicone padding adds grip at the contact surfaces. This gives the camera a more stable base for moving vehicle shots than a single suction cup alone.
Can the kit be used in different weather temperatures?
The operating range is from -20°C to 60°C. Within that range, the suction material and mounting parts are intended to work normally. Surface condition still matters, because water, dust or uneven texture can prevent the cup from forming a reliable seal. Before filming, each suction cup should be checked by hand so the seal and support rods are secure before the vehicle moves.
