Lightes fluid head for Swaro ATX 85 (1 Viewer)

I have a Sirui VH-10, which works very well, but is heavy as a punishment. What is the lightest fluid head people recommend for a Swaro ATX 85?
 
I also have a VH10 and an ATX85. I recently replaced the VH10 with a Benro G2 ball head, which actually works fine and is much lighter.

It's not the same as a fluid video head but may be worth considering.

Thanks! can you use it with the stay on case? Maybe I am overly cautious but I would rather keep it on (I assume you just turn the collar on the scope and place the head in the notch to simulate a fluid head?).

I haven't tried it but I don't see why you couldn't use it with a stay-on-case. The scope is just mounted on a regular plate.
