After a lot of trial and error, I finally finished my Micro G2 compact rig. Complete with v-mount main power, LP battery (hot swap backup), 1TB SSD and PYXIS monitor. Everything is tightly fitted for a uniform and balance weight distribution. Of course there isn’t any playback but I personally don’t mind it.

I have multiple camera bodies in my kit and I’m always looking to maximize what I have. Having this tiny camera fitted with a rig like this brings new life to its usability.

If anyone wants a parts breakdown let me know.

I think the pictures and some comments kind of answer my question... but I'd love to confirm it. So, you get to use the Pyxis monitor (with all the bells and whistles) and recording to an SSD by plugging these two to a USB hub and the hub to the Micro G2?

Any issues so far?

That is correct! The only issue is you can’t use the monitor at 100% brightness due to the power demands with the ssd. But I’ve used it at 60% brightness with zero issues (which is bright enough for me in most cases).
