    Hi, I'm planning to buy the seeker - Autonomous Indoor drone. I had a few questions regarding the attaching some external module like a camera or something and additional payload.

    1 - Does it have the support to attach a USB camera that supports USB 2.0 using the jst to USB connector?
    2 - Can we use a standard 4s lipo battery instead of using the battery that's there for this drone?
    3- How much addtional payload can this drone handle? I have requirements of attaching roughly 500-600 gms more

      @gauravshukla914 Regarding the USB camera, yes you can. Which camera, specifically, are you intending to attach? There are a wide variety of cameras out there with USB interfaces, some of which we support in our software and others we may not.

        @Eric-Katzfey not sure of it right now, will of course confirm it here before we decide to get it. Could you answer question 2 and 3 as well?

          1. No, you cannot change battery. The body is designed around that battery and the flight system is tuned to that battery.
          2. The Seeker can carry a light additional payload, 50 - 100g. This will obviously negatively affect flight time
