The strap contains pre-installed inserts (QTY 2) and pre-installed M3x16mm (QTY 2) screws (shown at right). </td><td><img src="/files/LVcCuY8VXetC6DgGi2Ah" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td>Step 10</td><td>Install Rear Screws Into PRS</td><td>Install the M3 x 8 mm screws (QTY 2) through the back holes of the PRS-M3DTEX into the drone as illustrated to secure the back of the PRS-M3DTEX to the top of the drone. Ensure the screws are tightly secured.</td><td><img src="/files/wskCeI9nrpkx5mDbo7P4" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td>Step 11</td><td>Double Check That Mounting Insert Is Pre-Installed Into Strap</td><td>Double-check that both the included inserts (QTY 2) and longer M3x16 screws (QTY 2) are pre-installed into the ends of the PRS-M3DTEX straps as illustrated.</td><td><img src="/files/oxIe8ApaurlQuYAZL0Qz" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td>Step 12</td><td>Position Straps Around Forward Arms</td><td>Loop the PRS-M3DTEX straps underneath the forward arms of the DJI M3D/T and insert the ends of the straps into the mounting holes as shown at right.</td><td><img src="/files/UAFzlJD2b35hbWqF3MKE" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td>Step 13</td><td>Install Mounting Screws</td><td>Finish installing the PRS-M3DTEX using the M3x16mm (QTY2) screws to secure the front of the PRS-M3DTEX to the top of the drone. The installation holes used are located at the front/closest to the drone's camera, as shown at right. Ensure the screws are tightly secured.</td><td><img src="/files/o8ufZLLeBDQ8RqH4O6ok" alt="">      </td></tr><tr><td>Step 14</td><td>Power On Drone/PRS</td><td>To turn on the PRS-M3DTEX, you will need to turn on the DJI M3D/T drone. </td><td><img src="/files/PizhIEJ76TaeYwSruMgj" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td>Step 15</td><td>Check PSDK Connection</td><td>Check for PSDK connection and errors on the DJI M3D/T transmitter. This will be indicated by the PSDK symbol on the right-hand side of the transmitter's screen when in the camera view.</td><td>          <img src="/files/eNbiiqK9qsoLJ78eDhSR" alt="">  </td></tr><tr><td>Step 16</td><td>Power Off Drone/PRS</td><td>Power off the DJI M3D/T.

DURING REMOVAL, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE STRAP AND ASSOCIATED HARDWARE (QTY 2 PRE-INSTALLED INSERTS AND QTY 2 PRE-INSTALLED M3x16MM SCREWS) WILL BECOME STUCK IN THE MOUNTING HOLES. IF THIS OCCURS, EITHER CAREFULLY LOOSEN THE SCREWS FURTHER OR GENTLY MOVE THE STRAP FROM SIDE TO SIDE TO RELIEVE PRESSURE ON THE ENDS. DO NOT PULL EXCESSIVELY ON THE STRAP TO TRY AND FORCE IT OUT.
