SmallRig RS4/RS3 Right Wrist Support Weight-Reducing (4248) with QD Quick Release Buckles
Product description
What it is and why people buy it
If you shoot for long stretches with a DJI gimbal stabiliser, the “hands-on” comfort matters more than most people expect. This SmallRig RS4 RS3 wrist support (model 4248) is designed to mount on the right side of compatible DJI RS stabilisers so your wrist can rest more naturally while you operate the rig.
On paper, it ticks a few practical boxes: it’s made for a specific set of DJI RS models, it’s lightweight by design, and it includes a rotatable element so you can adjust the angle to suit how you like to shoot. It also adds carrying options via QD quick release buckles.
The essentials (compatibility and how it mounts)
This wrist support is specifically designed for DJI RS 4 Pro, RS 4, RS 3 Pro, RS 3 and RS 2. Installation is done using 1/4”-20 screws, and it’s set up for right-wrist use only.
There are two important limitations to be aware of before you buy: - It is not compatible with RS 3 mini / RS C2. - It’s made for the right side only, so if you work left-handed or prefer a left-wrist setup, you may not find it matches your workflow.
Also, it’s worth keeping in mind that proper tightening matters. The setup uses a 1/4”-20 screw, and the manufacturer notes that you should ensure it’s securely tightened.
What you’ll notice day to day
The design focus here is comfort and weight management. The silicone wrist support aims to provide ergonomic comfort while reducing the overall feel of the stabiliser setup.
Then there’s the rotatable design. In practice, that means you can tweak the angle so the support sits in a way that suits different shooting preferences and different operators. If you’ve ever had a wrist rest that “almost” fits but never quite feels right, rotatability is the kind of detail that can save time on set.
One quick, realistic use example: imagine you’re doing a short handheld-style sequence where you need to hold the gimbal at a slight tilt for a while. Instead of fighting your wrist position, you can adjust the support’s angle so your wrist has a more consistent resting point, then lock in the screw and carry on.
Mounting options and carrying convenience
Beyond the basic support, the mounting approach is flexible enough for real-world setups.
- It includes 1/4”-20 and 3/8”-16 threaded holes, which can help with mounting to tripods and other devices (depending on your accessories).
- It also features two QD holes intended for attaching shoulder straps (listed as Shoulder Straps 4118 / 4383), giving you a more convenient way to carry the rig when you’re moving between locations.
If you regularly travel with your gimbal or need to switch between handheld operation and transport, that carrying angle is genuinely useful.
What stands out, and what can feel limited
What stands out: - Designed around right-side operation for the listed RS models. - Lightweight and ergonomic intent, with a silicone support for comfort. - Rotatable angle for easier personal fit. - QD holes for shoulder strap attachment.
Where it may not be the best match: - If your stabiliser is RS 3 mini or RS C2, this won’t work. - If you want a left-wrist support or a setup meant for shared use without adjustment, the “right only” design could be a drawback. - As with any accessory that relies on a screw connection, it’s only as good as your tightening habits—don’t just fit it and forget it.

Is it worth it?
This SmallRig RS4 RS3 wrist support (4248) makes sense if you own a compatible DJI RS stabiliser and you’re looking to improve wrist comfort during operation without adding a bulky mounting solution. The rotatable angle is a real practical benefit, and the QD holes for shoulder straps suit anyone who transports their rig frequently.
It’s not the best buy if you’re using RS 3 mini or RS C2, or if you need a left-wrist support. In those cases, you’ll end up spending time trying to make a mismatched accessory “almost” work.
Before ordering, double-check: (1) your exact stabiliser model, (2) that you want right-wrist support, and (3) that your 1/4”-20 tightening will be secure every time you fit it.
