The first three versions require a yoke which are need to attach the gimbals, their whole kit includes a vest, an arm which attaches to the vest, and then a collar which attaches to the arm. The camera mounts to the collar via your gimbal. Yokes are included to attach the Zhiyun Crane 2 or DJI Ronin-S or Moza Air2 gimbals;

EASYRIG+Serene
Easyrig System  is specially designed for professional photographers working with handheld equipment. Easyrig  can be used with both video and film cameras of medium weight.
 
Easyrig  gives you the advantages of both a handheld camera and tripod mounted camera; i.e. with the speed and mobility of the handheld camera you can still achieve steady pictures.
 
Your back and shoulders are relieved since the load is redistributed to the hips - Easyrig helps you to concentrate on the actual filming. You won't suffer from a strained back or shoulders as you would from normal handheld shooting and you will be able to work for longer periods of time.
 
The breathable fabric and ventilated soft padding will make your filming with Easyrig  comfortable and enjoyable.
 
Easyrig  will be your best tool when you do sport events, documentaries or news - yes, any occasion where handheld camera is required.

With the Easyrig+serene+Magic Ring  the Crane 3s could be mounted from the top of the ring and hang upside down (just like the Ronin 2) this would also allow better functionality to attach a monitor and follow focus accessories on the gimbal ring which is easier to operate than the steadicam. and the best way to be able to achieve tilt motion would be to design an attachment
 
Another benefit of the easy rig system is being able to switch between gimbal ring and a large handheld cinema camera
