Walkie Mount. Condor is freaking perfect.

These condor bags are the best $25 ever spent. I just added betzo bowties they attach perfectly to the loops at the sides of the bag. Definitely a positive improvement thus far

it's a "prada brace" coined by a camera op i work with who cant take the heat of my stylish bags i keep showing up with. these bags below can be found on amazon etc with various colors and some custom mod'ing and you will be on your way. when it comes to portabrace i think they are 25 for the bag and 95 for them to stitch on the label - go Rado's route instead starting with the link below...

Beutiful! Was curious how to attach bowties to this wonderful small and soft bag. Are they operating good this way too?

This could be a great solution I think for the Sonosax and a couple of receivers. How are you guys covered for rain/sand? Always found the plastic attachment on the common bags pretty invaluable in that respect and trying to work out if a DIY job would be good enough.

Orca rainshields are available as cheap spare parts, and there's probably one that fits the Condor/Nova rig.  Good quality, with convenient hook and loop strips already in place.  I used one recently for the older K-Tek Stringray medium. 

 

Spare parts is its own site.  Search for TPU for a quick overview of available rainshields, but you'll probably want to take a look at the covers for the Nova bags.

Their bagfinder will point you at the Nova-compatible offerings:

OR-330 and OR-272 are the slimmer Nova bags; the 272's closest to the Condor, I think?  Anyway, search for tpu 330 or tpu 272 in the spares, and you can see them.

 

Here's the OR-330 rain cover, for example, SKU OSP-10330-1

And for the OR-272, SKU OSP-10272-1

The 330 one would allow a bit of working room under the cover; the 272 looks pretty tight.

 

Think mine was about five bucks at B&H.  Usual suspects likely have stock, of course.

 

Edit:  Just noticed the EU location.  Audiosense.be has the OSP-10300-1  https://www.audiosense.be/en/orca-osp-1030-1-orca-osp10301
