Yeah be careful with your camera. I have the 561B and the head just fell off one day! It wasn't even screwed onto the legs. its held there by some kind of plastic thing.
There is no tension on the base, I just went and actually checked. In reality, there is no need for this. There's no swivel on the head either, and there's no need. The reason being - all the panning you want to do, is done with your wrist which allows you super smooth panned video. It's really very very nice. The monopod turns very easily for you either way, while it is on the ground, with no jitters or jumps, or bumps. I love it.
nope,and they fold up so it's like they are not there. I really like the feet. Just never make the mistake of thinking it is a tripod, - it WILL fall over on you.
are you able to screw 3 screws when you connect this tripod to tilt head?
mine seems being stucked by unremovable steel.

@13478722465 I do not understand your question.

can you attack any kind of head 1/4 or 3/8 like the 561b that has spring load ?

@labalbi I would not try putting that amount of weight onto a monopod, check the specs on Manfrotto's site for exact weight limits.

I have this monopod . Can I use with the 128RC head ?

@labalbi I don't see why not, but I can't say for sure. Best to contact Adorama, B&H or your local camera store to make sure before you order it.

Excellent video!! I have a question:
Is there a way to adjust the tension on the base so panning is easier?

I'm thinking of getting one. Does the feet get in the way at all?

No it cannot, it will be ultra-stable, but never leave it alone, it will flip over without any warning.
