Hi, I have a I1 Pro with the X5 camera. Right now its not functioning properly. Enough about that.

But, does anyone know if it is possible for me to buy a X3 camera and switch between the X3 and X5 with ease? This would be a great thing for me. Partly for having a low cost backup cam but also for being able to use the X3 when I want a couple of extra minutes of flight time or when I would like to shoot some video without having to have to overheat my brain with all the X5 settings.

Can I just have the two cams and switch between them?

You can switch between X3, X5 and X5R effortlessly but you have to pay attention to the different notes attached to FW upgrades.

The I1 Pro's mounting plate makes the switching possible

I did a double take again on this clip with my big 4k system and I still like the X3 better.  I did notice slightly more detail in the shadowed area but that's it.  Sure not worth the greens to jump to the X5 for that.  I'll wait for something that is noticeably better.
