Overview
The KUPO 471B Followspot Stand is a black, bearing-top stand for operators who need a fixture to pan smoothly while it is in use. It combines a 1-riser, 2-section steel post with aluminum legs, a compact 110 cm footprint, and a 40 kg load rating for followspots and other fixtures that need controlled movement rather than just static support.
Why It Matters
A followspot stand has to feel predictable under the operator's hand. The ball race bearing top helps reduce chatter and heavy breakaway force, while the memory collar lets a venue return to the same working height on repeat setups without starting from scratch.
Key Features
- Ball race bearing stand top supports smoother pan movement for live followspot tracking
- Memory collar helps repeat a previous working height during recurring venue or theatre setups
- One leveling leg improves contact on uneven floors before the fixture is raised
- M10 threaded zinc-cast feet accept the optional KC-100 caster set for controlled rolling on suitable floors
Height Range & Reach
The 471B is built for seated or low-platform followspot positions, with enough adjustment range for practical aiming without a tall wind-up footprint.
