    Hi everyone, I’m looking at the Starling 2 Max, which states it has a 500g payload capacity. My question is: on top of the battery, can it handle an additional 265g LiDAR? If so, how might this affect the flight time (currently listed as 55+ minutes) and overall flight performance? Any insights or experiences would be appreciated!

      @wen-max Yes, the 500g payload capacity is in addition to the battery.

      If you double the weight, flight time will be cut in half
