I just finished converting S900 to the new A3 and mounted a X5 on it it weighs in at 7K and on a 16000 I'm getting 20 minutes flight time.

Hello.
Impressive work!
Thanks for your support to DJI products.

Hi Arrow , would this set up be possible on S900 with A2 and Data link ?

Thank you

The X3/X5/XT mounting kit is only recognized by the A3/LB2 combination. It would not work with the A2.

Hi,

I have mine plugged into F8 and it is set to intelligent learning gear and it works fine, Will automatically retract after takeoff.

Are you getting a red or green LED on the undercarriage indicator, try plugging it into the opposite end we mistakenly thought f1 was actually f8.

Cheers Tony

Question- So it looks like from your install picks your tied directly in to the landing gear feed like the Z15  does the X5 take 6S voltage? I could of swore DJI specs said it was 19V operating voltage? If it doesn't are you using separate battery or a step down unit?

Hi,

Yes the X5 will take a 6S no need for a step down or separate battery, this was confirmed by a DJI engineer couple of weeks ago via a FB https://www.facebook.com/groups/MATRICE600/

Cool I'm putting my order in asap can wait to get rid of my Z-15 BMPCC I had it with that camera. Plus that large mount plate looks like a perfect home for Guidance. It looks like its offset enough to the front that the side cameras should not be obstructed if the gear is down. This is going to be awesome!

Hello - I have been flying an Inspire pro and keen to move to a hex with my X5 camera.

Lightweight with redundancy is the aim for me. Can you fly this with dual batteries, say 8000s?

This would be my first "build" and planning on the A3 and LB2 combo - so any advice would be great.

That would be posible if you use a y spitter for the XT60 connection.

Hi Arrow,

Could you post the parts list that is required to achieve this?

I know you used to fly a GH4/Z15 as do I, are the results as good?

Do you get full camera functionality through the Go App?

Great work!  Could you please post a list of what parts we need to order for the complete conversion?  For example, I have an S900 with an A2 and a GH4 gimbal/camera.  What would I need to buy to transition to your system?  I've found that just looking at pictures sometimes allows me to miss important (and expensive!) things. Thanks in advance. jim

The crux of the expensive components are as follows:

The A3 flight controller
Lightbridge 2
The M600 X Mounting Kit

Have also juts setup my 900 with the A3 pro kit and have just test flown it.

I have an extra M600 X mounting kit if anyone wants to grab it for cheap.  Never opened, PM me

Jamie, a little correction if I may: It will be recognized by N3 and LB2 as well.

That post was before the N3 was released, but yes you hit the nail on the head.

Where are you based (re mounting kit)

If the X5 and X3 work with the M600 conversion and the A3/N3 controller, does the X4 work as well then?

I have N3 + LB2 + X5, I have all the X5 commands on the screen, but I can not get the X5 video image (FPV) on my tablet, they could help me, because I have an urgent need to use the X5.

Did you have to make any changes to the cables? I made this S900 conversion, but it is not displaying the X5 video on the Ipad.

I'have a S900 +zenmuse Z15 and Sony nex7. But I need to geotagging the pictures. (+o- 20cm.) With
A3 flight controller
and X5 or X5R
Lightbridge 2
The M600 X Mounting Kit
is possible to geotag the picture?
Thank You.

did the rear clips for the x5r come in the kit? I don't have any

Hello
I have a S900 too. I am looking for an adaptor  or  extension,  like the one you use for the X5 camera.
Can you help me, and tell me where I can find that one?
Thank you
Ferudi
