Hi there,I'm interested in moving from DJI over to a X8 & was wondering what the most common mods were. Can you increase motors, batteries, props to allow say a dslr / gimbal to increase flight times?Forgive my ignorance but I'm new to 3DR.Thanks in advance.

I don't have a clear answer for you at this time, but I as well am interested in eventually attempting to fly a DSLR with my X8. For the time being I have a Tarot T-2D gimbal and a GoPro on it. I have the 2013 version of the X8 and it requires leg extensions in order to fit a DSLR underneath it. I think the motors will be fine as is, it's plenty powerful to carry the weight. Batteries is a huge discussion and I am not an expert by any means.
I have a Facebook group for X8 specific questions. You might want to try this question over there:

There don't seem to be many of us out here, but I guess it's always lonely out on the bleeding edge. ;-)
