What kind of screw is required for this. Just received it in the mail today.

No new screws are required. Re-use the set-screw. One also comes with it. Maybe this video will help:

With the Taco-RC bracket you have to re-use the existing hardware, both screws and the adjustable spinner.

I'm guessing you just pull the old one out and install it on the new bracket. Can anyone confirm before I do it?

Correct, pull out the plastic, insert the aluminum. I looked at getting this bracket too but for $10 more you get the whole new bracket and holder from DJI (Part #45).

Wish I would have known, definitely would have went that route. Thanks for the info! Just wanted to be sure before I pulled the old spinner out.

Your final product will be the same as buying the Inspire 1 holder. You just have the extra grunt work to do and don't have the extra holder as a spare.

2 extra batteries and a hardshell backpack.

Ah ok! Thanks for all the info! Turned out great. Didn't see that little "grub screw" at first.

Case for when using car to get around and storage. Note dessicant boxes remove moisture.

The protection has been good enough. Could it be better? Yes, but it should be adequate for 90% of the folks IMHO. The quality isn't as good as others I'm sure, however it has served me well for the last month, I really like it. The top foam could be better quality, but it's adequate. I plan to replace the top foam at some point. The best aspect of this pack is it looks like an average backpack, non descript, nobody gives it a second look. However it's cut for the P3.

I've had my first failure with the Chinese backpack. One of the shoulder straps came loose. I had to have it sewed back on. I think it was defective, but I'm still a fan for the price.
