It would work, although the system will report "critically low battery" having no telemetry data.

Ha ha, true! On the other hand, the world belongs to brave frontiers who conquer unknown ... Trust me, Phillip, I wouldn't advise such surgery without doing this successfully first. Apparently OP is trying to utilize damaged Inspire's carcass and turn it into homemade Osmo X5S, thing that DJI failed to deliver ...
Very expensive tether kits also modify the I2's, (m200/m600 series too) power feed. I suspect if you know what you are doing it isn't a problem. Like many things, right?

Exactly! Here's my Osmo X5S/X7 rig build with parts from scavenged bird...

Thank you, Dave ... BTW, I hate when somebody's entering the house looking for help (or bathroom?) and never bother to come back (or flush the toilet) ... You're very welcome, Flostunts

It would be a lot of work if you only want to power the camera. If you are not taking the drone apart you will need to have the electronic board of the Inspire 2 battery.

I don't know what's your concept, but this is what I've done without modifying any wirings. These 3 cables is all you need, plus antenna pads of course. Remember to monitor battery capacity somehow, popular hobby tester works fine, miniature LED voltmeter as well ...
