I have a brand new OSMO, a brand new adapter, and a brand new X5 camera.  It won't work.  I have been at it for hours.  I CAN get an image through the app but the gimbal flops around as if it has no power.

HOWEVER... and this is the mind blown part...

I can attach the X3 camera from my Inspire directly to the OSMO handle and OSMO works perfectly.

I can also attach the adapter to the OSMO handle and then the X3 to the adapter and it works perfectly.

I can also attach the X5 camera to the Inspire and it works perfectly.

The problem is only with the X5 attached to the OSMO with the adapter.

Sounds as if you need a firmware upgrade for the x5...

How would I upgrade the firmware on the X5?

Well, I solved it.  What I did was attach the X5 to the Inspire and then updated the Inspire to the most recent firmware.  Then I attached the X5 to the Osmo and updated, successfully this time, the Osmo.  I think the Inspire update may have updated the X5.  Who knows.  It works though!
