Hi Glen,
You could try a Manfrotto 075B tripod ~5kg , with a 501 "fluid" type head (very smooth) or possibly 136 head. If you want something lighter but still heftyish then try a 055B type tripod~3kg. The 136 HEAD makes a very good wedge for something like a SW AZ GTI and uses large hexagonal quick release plates. You can get lucky secondhand for reasonable prices.
Best
JA
