I just watched a 30 seconds video on Touptek YouTube channel about a T-Forty carbon fiber tripod. If they come up with a tripod they must have plans to have something to put on it.

Yes. There is some information out of NEAF this year.

Yes. Preliminary name for the mount is ‘atlus’. Its an AM5 competitor, harmonic mount with dc servo motors and encoders rather than stepper motors (much like warp astron's wd-20)

No special sheet has been released yet, but all the harmonic mounts in this class perform about the same… price not mentioned yet.
