I figured this was worthy of letting others know about.
A while ago, I purchased the PixAero lens upgrade for my CGO3+ on my Typhoon H. I finally had some time to do the upgrade and have watched a couple of the videos on YT which have been very helpful, however, I have found that the lens mounting system for my camera is completely different to what I have seen.
After carefully picking away at the glue, I found that the original lens was actually just sitting in the housing - not threaded in at all. The worst part is that the housing attached to the sensor board will not accommodate my new lens as there is no threaded part to screw the new lens into.
This is extremely frustrating as I now have a dismantled camera and no way to upgrade with the new lens.
Has anyone else ever encountered this?
