We recently purchased a V2 Dual 640T drone. The intention was to take the gimbal from the V2 and put it on one of our V1 bodies to use with the live deck. While the V1 6K gimbals work without issue on the V2, the 640T results in a grayish/blackish video feed. The controls show, the serials and model show, and the gimbal responds to commands, but there's no video showing.
@advexure has an article posted that states the gimbals are interchangeable-
"The good news: V1/V2 compatibility issues only affect radio-related components – airframe, remote controller, smart controller, and live deck. Everything else -- batteries, accessories, camera payloads, etc.-- is cross-compatible."

This portion in the article gave me the information I needed to make the purchase. However, given the above issues, I reached out to Autel support. They got back with me the same day and said that the 640T on the V2 body wasn't compatible. I challenged that and pointed them to the link I referenced in this post. The support guy said he'd do some digging and get back to me. About 3 hours later he sent an email and stated again it wasn't compatible.
So, either I'm missing something to get this to work and the post by Advexure is correct, or Autel support is correct and somehow the V2 640T Dual isn't compatible with the V1 body.
Anyone else have any experience connecting the 640T from a V2 body to a V1 body?
