All 4 of them have worked flawlessly. I've also got two Ursa Mini Pros and an Ursa Mini 4K. We also shoot with the UMPs all day, handheld or on our shoulders...with no issues. It's not more or less weight rigged up and any other cinema or eng camera. I had the Big Ursa before these, so in comparison...they're tiny. 
That LED with the big softbox is the best $400 I've spent.

I have a few examples of bmpcc4k’s overheating and fucking up schedule. Totally unacceptable. Thats a shame because i love all the rest of it. Yes the monitor sucks but i would use an external recorder anyway so... no problem.
Pffff UMP way too heavy for me to run around with all day. Lol
