Hello again,

I've gone thru the downloadable manuals of the Zenmuse X5 and I cannot find any info about connecting it to the Lighbridge or A3 FlightController. Can someone enlighten me? I am planning on building a drone with DJI parts ie. A3, X5, Lightbridge 2. But just cannot find info on how to connect them together. Am using the Phantom 3 Pro at the moment. Would like to have bigger drone with better flight times and similiar capabilities as the P3.

Thanks,

The most guidance on connection would be through the M600 manual:

There are some threads regarding that kind of combination, if you look around a bit. A Forum member by the name of Arrow1969 that made a thread on how he did it.

Hallo, I have N3 with Lightbridge 2 and Matrice 600 Zenmuse X series Gimbal mounting kit with X5 camera. All is working well (I can control camera, see camera parameters on GoApp...etc) except video output from X5 (I see no video preview on GoApp.

I've read that i have to install X5 Fw for Matrice 600

MATRICE600_FC550_FW_V01.10.01.40.bin

Can this be risolutive? If I made FW upgrade, can I use my X5 with Osmo and Inspire Pro again?

Many Thanks
Giuliano

Giuliano,
I have the same issue. I have installed the FW upgrade, specifically for the M600 and X5R, and it makes no difference. I get a "successful" install, but the live view feed, is still not there. However the camera does record to the card.
I was also told by dji, the camera should not work on an Inspire 1, after the upgrade is installed to the camera, but it does. It is so frustrating when dji ignores these issues.
