About Tilta HYDRA ALIEN PRO

The Hydra Alien Pro Car Mounting System is a next generation gimbal support solution for car-mounted cinematography and is one of the most accessible and innovative Car Mounting Solutions for RS4 Pro to Ronin 2.

The system utilizes a highly customizable combination of dovetail-like plates and suction cups that allows users to fine-tune the exact placement of their shot to achieve almost any angle possible when mounting to a vehicle.

The newly designed dovetail plates feature retractable safety pins at every position which the arm can be mounted. This drastically improves the safety of the system, especially when adjusting the position of the arm via a new sliding design which makes small adjustments quick and easy.

The newly designed shock absorbing arm supports higher payloads up to 28.7lbs and features a motorized shock absorbing head which provides greater stability and uses motors to help stabilize the system similar to a gimbal.

When paired with the optional Nucleus Nano 2 Control Handle, the damping of the shock absorbing head can be adjusted remotely which makes this ideal for fast paced environments and provides the opportunity to fine tune damping settings as road conditions change in real time.

When paired with a lightweight gimbal, this creates an incredibly smooth image while being more user friendly when compared to traditional systems. This innovative system greatly expands possibilities for both entry level and experienced users who may not have the full budget needed for more traditional vehicle mounted rigs.

Note: When using larger gimbals like the Ronin 2, we recommend only rigging the Hydra Alien Pro with Speed Rail as other suction cup based options are not strong enough to reliably support the system.

Hybrid Damping System
The Shock Absorbing Arm for Hydra Alien Pro features precise 0-100 level damping adjustment, maintaining stable, linear compression (shock head movement) even as damping increases, making it ideal for extreme conditions and offering significantly more stable footage.

Electromagnetic damping shock absorption technology
Tilta has restructured the core design of the car mount arm, adapting to various conditions, significantly improving the stability of footage captured.

Versatile and Practical Electronic Suction Cups
Alien Pro features TILTA's electronic suction technology, saving time and effort compared to traditional manual suction cups, while ensuring maximum equipment safety.

Convenient storage, perfect for air travel
Features a detachable storage case for easy transportation, expanding the possibilities of creative environments.

Integrated Power System
Alien Pro features an all-in-one power design with an internal 14.8V network, optimizing cable management, minimizing frequent connections, and improving shooting efficiency.

Interchangeable shock absorbers
Includes two types of shock absorbers with varying stiffness, adaptable for light or heavy loads. Easy to replace and effectively reduces high-frequency vibrations.

2nd-Generation HYDRA Car Mounting System
50% improvement in installation stability compared to the first-generation Alien, eliminating side-to-side sway at high speeds.

Biomorphic Design
Inspired by the HYDRA emblem, balancing function and aesthetics
