1 | Loosen the thumbscrews and slide the LR1 all the way back. This will make it easier to plug in the cable | |
2 | Mount the counterweight to the bottom of the LR1 using the M3 x 5 FHCS screws and a 2.0mm hex driver | |
3 | Mount the Thermal Module to the top of the LR1 using the M3 x 10 SHCS screws and a 2.5mm hex driver. Ensure the module is snug against the camera. Do not pinch the cable. | |
4 | Plug the cable into the expansion port. Gently push the cable into the cable guide hook. | |
5 | Balance the tilt axis of the gimbal by shifting the payload forward and back, then tighten the thumbscrews. Torque the screws up to 0.3Nm to prevent the adjustment from slipping. |
If you are adding multiple modules to the LR1 Payload at the same time, a combined counterweight is required, available here.
