Now ive got my inspire 2 with x5s camera, if I was to us a filter uv lens protector like I do on all my cameras or a circular polerising filter will this affect the balance of the gimbal?

Yes, it will. You will need to adapt the balancing ring to compensate for the weight of the filter. Most (all) balancing rings are supplied to two parts,  it is typically a case on installing only the heavier ring and the filter, or both rings and no filter..

Hi there, the balance is very important for X5S to ensure the shooting quality, gimbal performance is affected by the weight of the camera. We recommend to install accessories according to the following table to stabilize the lens. 32b43514-7016-4fa8-a26d-c0de73d24595.jpg

Thanks Mindy so if I'm reading it right, a 10g filter needs bal ring a fitted.
Not sure about the polariser one yet its not turned up. So what do I fit if its say 15g to balance it out?

Or does it need the balancing ring A if a filter is not used and a 10g filter is ok on the dji standard lens?
