During our group meet and eat, was able to capture a Yuneec Typhoon H dropping 3 little parachute dudes remotely. Using an Insta360 one X mounted on a M2Z. Flying M2Z FPV with Moverio BT-300.

More cost effective then just shooting the drone down for sureI can see something like this to be used as target practice
Looks like a great get together, much fun.
Any GPS issues with the Insta360 One X mounted on top like that? I had read of another reviewer who kept losing GPS because of it mounted on top of the Mavic 2. If not, I'm getting one! Did you need to trim or cut back the snap-on tripod mount? Looks narrower than mine.During our group meet and eat, was able to capture a Yuneec Typhoon H dropping 3 little parachute dudes remotely.

Cool! It appears you may need ATTI mode skills, which is fine, if you are aware of the issue, and in an open area for such a parachute drop. Hanging it below requires turning off VPS, as it interferes with the downward facing sensors. Insta360.com now makes their own Mavic 2 kit for mounting the Insta360 One X, which comes with both warnings, depending upon whether you want to mount it above or below.Yes there is a drop in the GPS signal but not enough to prevent the Mavic 2 from flying. Once in the air the signal gets stronger. No mod need on the mount, snaps in place and I can lift the Mavic with the camera. You will get a warning about shorter flight time with the added weight.
Eager to hear your findings. However, I would be very careful about mounting it further back because of the shifting of the Insta360 One X weight away from the predetermined center of gravity, also used on the M2E for all its attachments. Could create an unstable aircraft that only wants to fly backwards.Now I'm curious, will a forward mount (Insta360 mount between the front arms in front of power button - what I have right now) have more or less impact on GPS signal strength than battery mount (Insta360 above the battery, behind the power button). Will it make a difference at all, need to find out...
Let's hope the tail weight itself isn't an issue, as the reason for moving it to the tail is to regain the satellites lost mounting it over the GPS sensor. M2 is really stable and able to recover from crashes and bird strikes before hitting the ground, so what's a little Insta360 One X stuck onto its tail! Keep us posted!I'm hoping the DJI Mavic GPS system will hold it from drifting, it holds pretty good in windy conditions. My 6" drone was able to carry the same Insta360 and do some flips and rolls, looked like it was holding up an Iphone X. My thought initially was on the first 1/2 flip the CG would confuse the gyro, get stuck upside down, not finish the flip thinking it was already level and crash straight down...thank god that was not the case.
