What the thread found

• The Volt gimbal is compatible with M1, M2, Archer, Shadow, GPI Pro, and Betz rigs.
• The Volt works with posts measuring 1.75 inches in diameter or smaller, including 1.58 and 1.50 inch sizes.
• Gimbals designed for 1.5 inch or 2 inch posts may fit the Volt, but the control box mounting could present challenges on non-standard equipment.
• M1 and M2 gimbals can be modified to work with post diameters of 1.75 inches or less.
• The Volt cannot currently be mounted on 2 inch posts without significant modifications.
• Adapting other gimbal models like Shadow V, Shadow, U2, or Clipper to work with the Volt is possible.
• If modifying a gimbal other than M1 or M2 for Volt compatibility, numerous expensive internal parts require adjustment beyond simple post diameter changes.

Depends on

• No current solution exists for mounting Volt on 2 inch posts.
• Mounting the Volt control box on off-brand equipment may require custom solutions.
• Compatibility requires either matching post diameter specifications or performing substantial modifications.
• The discussion about specific modifications to certain brand gimbals remains incomplete.
