Yuneec Typhoon H Steady Grip Modification For CGO3+
You don't have to do the modification, but it makes the camera last longer.

How do you know which Steadygrip is which, they all seem to have the same part number?

There is only one steady grip. It works with all the CGO's from 2 to 3+. I believe Yuneec updated their design to not use the little cable on some of the older cameras. I think any Steadgrip you buy today will be compatible with the H camera and gimbal. It isn't something that Yuneec will advertise or support but it does work.

I was thinking if I buy one off of ebay, how can I tell the difference? Some of them use 6AA batteries, some 8AA batteries, some have the slide on connector, some use the plug.
