Does this product includes the boom arm? If this is the case how much weight can the arm hold and what is it&Acirc;&acute;s maximum lenght?

It does include the boom arm. Max load weight is listed at 20 lbs and maximum arm length is 7 feet.

The information below is correct as Carlos mentioned. I think you are confused about the length from the stand -pole to handle and from there to the front end. Because that pole that booms out can be moved back and forth wherever you want and then tightened there. So, the measurements you ask for means nothing if you slide that pole in either direction.

The unit is too heavy to be supported by a COMMON boom mike stand. You MIGHT be able to use a very HEAVY duty stand like I use for overhead mics for drums. One needs a heavy base with adequate leg spread to have stability if device AND mic is to be supported on a boom of any appreciable length. Mine I use on a regular stand that the boom has been removed. It works very nice this way. I would recommend that you try a heavy duty stand... they are pricey... that has legs more like a speaker stand. Extend the boom like you need, and then attach weights to simulate the sheilld AND the microphone to check feasibility. You MIGHT need counterbalancing weights on the back of the boom.

There is a stabilization leg. I believe, but y9ou need to discuss this with the designer, is the strength of the loading arm while extended either in the short, 500#, or the longer, 250# set-up. It is all about lever arm strength to load.

I went to pull it out to measure it .It stands 5ft 8in and the boom is two(extendable) sections that measure three and a half feet. I use Chimera Octa box's, the largest measures five five feet in diameter and is the heaviest. With counter weights , Canon 600ex rts, and only one section of the boom extended ,the stands are able to hold the five foot Octa very well. I don't think these stands are able to hold much more weight than that with the second section fully extended.

Comes with one extension arm as pictured. If you are over 5' tall though you may need another.

It's pretty stable. Especially if you make sure that the boom arm is directly above one of the legs. The longer you make the boom, the more tippy. With the arm 1/2 way extended or less, you should have no problems outdoors.

yes, someone can hand-hold this for you. No there is no special bracket needed. Just bought the general hand-hold arm such as Elinchrom EL 31049 63 - 156 cm Handheld Boom Arm (Black).

Yes, both arms are included, note it is a small crankset... I was expecting larger at a glance. Nice product has held up well.

I am currently using it with a boom stand and it works pretty well. It's a bit heavy- I also have a pop filter attached to the front when I do that. I have the stand sticking almost straight up- tilted just a bit to account for the weight on the backside. When locked, it seems sturdy enough to hold. Just in case it starts to tip, I've been sticking a chair behind it. Hasn't happened yet, and I'm not sure how much help it would be if it did. Anyway- boom stand would probably work for short periods if yours is sturdy. Stewart's idea sounds better though. I may try that one at some point.

Sorry, I'm unable to answer your question because I do not use a boom pole. (See ALE answer; ALE seems to have experience with this.)

There is no "boom length". This is a omni-directional antenna, not a directional antenna.

Hey Kenneth, i looked up this question myself through the manufacturer. When you have the "arms" extended up, let's say for doing squats, the max limit load is 300lbs i was told. I've put 300lbs on it and it's a bit shaky, so anything more than that I would not recommend. When the "arms" are retracted to their most lowest it's pretty stable and could hold a great deal more although i have not tested this with any more than 350lbs.

Yes, I use a curl bar and dumbbells; as long as you have the weights in both hands and alternate your dumbbell curls it will hold the Arm Blaster in place, although it is more steady with a barbell. Hope that helps.

Yes it is. It doesn't come with the arm. You will first remove the iMac's stand, attach the VESA mount, and then attach the iMac to the stand. Be careful not to strip the screws (as I did by over tightening the VESA mount). There is a nice assembly video for the product on YouTube that I recommend you watch before setup. Lastly, I was originally upset with this product because it wasn't holding the full weight of my 27 inch iMac, but this was unfounded. Moral of the story? Keep adjusting the tension and it will hold as advertised. I am now very satisfied with this product. Good luck.

Yes I have. It is cumberson to use. I have we sties 20 lbs. I can't not seem to adjust it to be short enough. So I use it as best I can but I set the arm pole all the way up as far as possible. It works enough. Not loving it though.
