Camera cage build
Building the camera cage is where the magic happens. This cage protects your camera while allowing for optimal performance. Make sure to use the recommended materials for durability.
Fitting the TPU adaptor
After the camera cage is built, it’s time to fit the TPU adaptor. This component is essential for vibration damping and ensures your footage remains steady.
Installing top standoff
Now, let’s install the top standoff. This piece provides additional support for the camera and helps maintain its position during flight.
Installing the camera
With everything in place, it’s time to install the camera. Ensure it’s aligned correctly to avoid any issues during flight.
Assemble the cage
Assemble the cage around the camera. This step is critical for protection and stability. Make sure all screws are tightened properly.
Install camera cage into the frame
Now, install the camera cage into the frame itself. This is a straightforward process but requires precision to ensure everything fits snugly.
Uptilt friction adjustment
Once the cage is in, make sure to adjust the uptilt friction. This adjustment allows for better camera angles during flight, enhancing your filming capabilities.
This works with any AOS V5 frame!
Remember, the DJI O4 setup is compatible with any AOS V5 frame, making it a versatile choice for various builds.
