Aux power out from I2?

That's right above GPS – how did it affect satellites reception? Knowing how much s..tuff DJI Air Module emits I'd be somewhat careful..

Good point. Actually in front of GPS no issues. I have mounted all types of cameras and accessories above the GPS on my Inspire top mounts and only ran into problems with a EVO SS gimbal which was right above GPS module. I isolated that to the gimbal motors causing GPS to go to manual flight mode. GPS can be tricky
can be very dificult to isolate issues. I use the GoPro MAX and Fusion 360 mounted directly above GPS all the time with no issues. I have over 70 of the
Inspire 1 and Inspire 2 top mounts in the field all over the world in the past 2 years and no one has complained. (these do not have the DJI Air FPV on them that I know of) Of course there is always a first time.

Hmm, top mounting rig for Inspire seems rather heavy and big. That aside, I would hesitate to obstruct GPS reception in any way

Good points
Weight is what it is
Size is for changing position, using multiple components I mount such as below: (not designed for Air FPV it is designed to be flexible)
GPS always a concern. I have over 150 flights between my I1 and I2 with only one issue as noted in prior
post.
Thanks for input

UPDATE:My pleasure!
I've been using the Matek BEC
Matek 2-8S Micro 5V or 9V BEC 3 PackDefault Title
The latest Micro BEC from Matek. These thins are tiny! Great for adding powering your 5 or 9V accessories without adding any meaningful weight to your build. Check out the rest of our BECs and PDBs! Features High Efficiency Synchronous Step-down regulator Wide 2-8S (6-30V) Operating Input...www.racedayquads.com
And FYI, I'm sitting here right now updating my 3d model to allow for tilt on the FPV cam... need to be able to tilt up a little for going forward fast... so you aren't just looking at the ground ;-)
In my FPV Quads, I've had some issues with Mateks, so I've switched to Pololu BECs, which are more expensive and more bulletproof. Pololu - 5V, 3.2A Step-Down Voltage Regulator D36V28F5
Curious about the antennas... in my experience those air unit antennas need to be held in place... not only will they flop down, but they will also pop out pretty easily sometimes... Have you not found that?
