Stand and Modifier for Godox 400

[Illus]

I'm testing out a Flashpoint/Godox 400pro this weekend. I'm interested in sports and senior portraits. Couple questions:I'm using a Flashpoint 9' AutoStand Pro and def going to need something beefier for this light with modifier. Can someone confirm that I need a c-stand?I'm using a 36" Glow EZ Lock Quick Octa and it seems way too big and unweildy. Anyone use these softboxes - would a 25" be better for mobility? Or should I try a Deep Parabolic Softbox?

I don't see why. That stand is rated the take ~7.5 Kg the light is ~2.2Kg the softbox weighs < 1Kg.

Can someone confirm that I need a c-stand?I'm using a 36" Glow EZ Lock Quick Octa and it seems way too big and unweildy. Anyone use these softboxes - would a 25" be better for mobility? Or should I try a Deep Parabolic Softbox?

If you're worried about mobility the kast thing you beed is a C Stand.

If you want a smaller softbox which packs down small consider the Godox AD-S85 or AD-S60.
