Hydra Car Mount System — 44 lb Capacity
The Tilta Hydra Articulating Car Mounting System uses three 4.5" electronic suction cups with NATO brackets to secure cameras up to 44 lbs on smooth vehicle surfaces. Each cup runs on a 2000mAh battery for over 14 hours and monitors pressure automatically. Three 11" articulating arms and a 75mm ball head with 15° horizontal adjustment allow precise positioning for interior or exterior shots.
Ideal for Mobile Productions — Not for Fixed Rigs
This system suits filmmakers capturing moving vehicle shots who need quick, vibration-free mounting without permanent fixtures. The electronic suction cups, Manfrotto quick release module, and 75mm/100mm ball adapter support mirrorless and lightweight cinema cameras with or without cages. Studios requiring permanent ceiling or wall installations should consider dedicated bracket systems instead.
44 lb Total Load Rating Decides Fit
The entire assembly is rated for 44 lbs, while each articulating arm handles up to 17.5 lbs. Verify that your camera, lens, cage, and accessories stay within this combined limit before mounting. The 75mm ball head also accepts other 75mm tripod heads and Arca-type plates for broader compatibility.
