PLEASE HELP
Custom Build Quad on 6S battery

A3 + Lightbridge 2 Combo
Zenmuse X3 Gimbal and camera
Zenmuse X3/X5 Series Gimbal Mounting Bracket
2 X TB48 Intellegent Flight batteries  
2 X Matrice 100 Battery Compartments
E1200 Pro Tuned Propulsion System
Tarrot T810 Retract

Question 1: How to connect X 2 DJi TB48 batterys to the A3 to be able to get full battery information on the Go app, it does say that the A3 is compatibale with DJI batterys

Question 2: what is the Input Voltage to the Zenmuse X3 Gimbal and camera via the Zenmuse X3/X5 Series Gimbal Mounting Bracket, it has a power cable but no voltage on the spec sheet.

Question 3: Does the Zenmuse X3 mounting hardware supply the LB2 with power and if not how to do this.

Thanks in advance

Found answer to question 2, from Matrice 600 manual, Xt30 cable from X3 Mounting kit gets connected to a port with DC-18Volts

At this time, the device that allows an Inelligent Flight Battery connect to the standalone A3 has not been made available. We unfortunately do not have an ETA as to when it would be made available. The M100 Battery Compartments would not suffice for what you are attempting to do. Also, the Lightbridge 2 Air Component derives it power from the A3 directly via the RF port.

It would be really nice to have a device that will allow multiple dji flight battery's to be connected to the flight controller/lightbridge and communicate battery status to the Go App, the m600 has this feature. Anyone buying a stand alone A3 and doing a custom build would be very happy for this feature.

Are you using the standard D-Bus cable to the LB2 air end or the D-Bus II cable? If it's the latter, do you have it seated in the proper direction?

I want to do something similar... what are you using as the gimbal control unit? I didn't see it in your list. Am I missing something? Thanks.
