    Can't update Inspire X5

    Hi Dxtrty, I sent you the Inspire1 Pro firmware (aircraft and X5 firmware in one 72MB file) The firmware you metioned (Inspire 1 Firmware v01.10.01.40 (X3)) is the standard Inspire1 firmware for the aircraft only (without X5 camera). So yes, it is apropriate for the aircraft, but afterwards you...

    Multiple devices on 1 Inspire

    I tried using an Ipad Air with A7 processor, but it does not work properly. Live view and playback images only build up for the top half and very slowly. It is not a workable device. Iphone 6S+ works great. Anybody have similar problems with Ipad Air?

    Ipad Air images keep refreshing in Go app

    I have a problem with my Ipad Air 16Gig in combination with my Inspire 1. The images (live AND playback) do not build up properly, it is a hit and miss. The top of the image builds up rather normal, but the bottom part stays either blank, grey or black. Also lots of digital "errors" in the image...

    Final and detailed guide on X5 "lens calibration"

    Well actually I was still doing research on the kitchen table no Props or motors armed yet. But I think I got fooled by the poor light performance of the lens. Indoors with little light, the photo can get blurry. I think this is due to the long shutter time and the creeping of the camera (is...

    Final and detailed guide on X5 "lens calibration"

    I am trying to solve a focussing issue with the 14-42 m.zuiko power zoom. I bought the lens for the inspection of very small items at a distance of approx 2 meter. Optical zoom plus digital zoom gives a decent 6x zoom. My only problem is that the photos are only really tack sharp once in ten...

    Can't update Inspire X5

    I contacted DJI and found a solution: Strangely only one piece of firmware could not be downloaded from the DJI website. By using an other web browser it was possible. The difference in file size is caused by the integration of both camera and flight controller firmware into one file. Not very...

    Can't update Inspire X5

    I ran in some interesting facts myself: I bought an Inspire 1 V2.0 with a X3 camera last november. All firmware is now up to date. Today I installed a new X5 camera and the Ipad says only the camera needs new firmware (is now 1.9.1.10) So I take my computer and rush to the download page on...

    The latest list of compatible lenses for the X5

    @trevor king (and the rest of the world, of course) I am looking at a power zoom lens for inspection purposes and I ran into the Panasonic LUMIX G X VARIO PZ 45-175mm F4.0-5.6 ASPH. POWER O.I.S. You wrote that the X5 motors fail on the bigger zoom lenses. The Youtube video posted by Cory...

    X3 fixed zoom lens

    Thanks a lot for the extensive info. I now see that my question was not clear. I really meant to say: can I exchange the original lens for a lens with a higher focal length? And what are the specs to look for. Here is what I found out so far. Sensor size is 1/2.3 (6.17 x 4.55 mm). And original...

    X3 fixed zoom lens

    For inspection purposes I am looking for a zoom lens to replace the stock one in my X3. If we forget the balancing problem (please do), what specs do I need to look for? I need a 16 mm or 20 mm lens with M12 thread. I read that I need to look for a IR cut lens, but looking on aliexpress I get...

    Orthophotos with Inspire 1

    @Hammer_155 I also do some mapping with my Inspire1 using dronedeploy, but it never stops to take a photo. It always takes photos during flight. Only when I use the fairly new DJI GSPro app, the Inspire stops at every 'kodak moment'. But I have heard more complaints about this. It also looks a...

    convert X3 camera to NDVI

    Hello fellow Inspire fans, I am going to convert my X3 to NDVI specs. I read all the pros and cons, it's not perfect I know. Some offer NIR+red lenses, others offer NIR+blue. I guess they'll both work. But what I can't understand is the following: If I replace the original lens with a lens...

    Inspire 2 zoom camera

    Well I have a thought on that which I can't verify anywhere: Small light sensors only need small light zoom lenses. Big light sensors, like in the X5 camera, need prettig big and heavy zoom lenses. Here it comes: why doesn't anybody make make a converter ring to adapt a small light weight...

    Deep Cycling Help

    I recently bought an Inspire 1 and done a lot of reading. But some deep cycle facts are still confusing to me: 1.Everybody speaks of deep cycling after 20 charges. In DJI's 'Intelligent Flight Battery Safety Guidelines' it says discharge completey every 10 cycles. Which is correct? 2.Should I...
