    No video feed on X3 mounted on X5 Inspire

    i had an issue like yours only i couldnt tilt or pan the x3 gimbal. i fixed it by selecting "reset camera settings" and it worked. worth a shot anyhow. also try rebooting everything a few times.

    Warning to all X5 owners

    pretty hard to imagine breaking a carbon fiber arm from a fall " less than 10 ft into soft underbrush" you need a pretty hard to crash to snap a carbon fiber arm and bend the worm drive, so im guessing it was a pretty severe impact your now downplaying. i call bs on your story.

    Focus pull transitions best technique?

    the wheel works pretty good, but we need to be able to set hard stops/rack end points so as to not go too far.

    Gimbal won't stay level?

    do a cold and level imu calibration. leave it in the garage or a cool place for a while, then select imu calibration as soon as you power it on. then do a gimbal calibration. should fix it.
