Nice shots! Definitely makes for a unique video experience. Have you found AutoFlight buggy overall, or just the continuous photo option?

I've certainly been able to go further than 2000 ft with a stock RC, but the intermittent video drop outs make filming anything of consequence difficult. The Windsurfer, while very directional, allows for a far more reliable signal even when flying less than 5000 ft away. At least for my...

I purchased this similar model from Amazon, and finally had an opportunity to give it a good test last week. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013SL2GF4?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00 With my Inspire I'd usually experience video signal breakup and artifacts around 2000 ft...

Thanks for the tips DavidB! I do understand the use of transitions between clips, but find their use between every scene change distractingly tedious, and thus employ them sparingly. In the case of this particular video they're placed primarily between handheld camera footage and aerial shots...

Finally finished editing this one a few days ago. You really begin to pine for a Phantom 3 sized drone when lugging the Inspire up steep trails in its hard case and one of the Koozam backpack conversion kits...

I have one preordered. Expecting a shipping notification from dslrpros any day now. I sold my Phantom 2 when the Solo was announced, and decided to give 3DR a shot for a more portable solution rather than the Phantom 3. I've yet to find a way to easily lug the Inspire around for a hike, and the...

There is no blurriness at all. It's perfectly clear when coming directly off the Inspire's HDMI feed. I even connected the HDMI output on my Macbook just for kicks, and all the operating system text, and even web pages, were clear and legible. My previous set of goggles was the Fat Shark...

The solutions provided above by turbo and Frank508 are the most ideal, but the more readily available HDMI mini > standard HDMI cable with an adapter works as well. It's what I've been using. Not the most elegant solution, but you can get it quickly from Amazon through Prime. It would have been...

April 6th I believe.

Yes, HDMI is pretty much the only solution for the Inspire with any set of googles, as none that I am aware of have any built in functionality for receiving a lightbridge signal. We're dependent on the controller to receive and carry the video output to the goggles via HDMI. If you added a...

Thanks Turbo! That's exactly what I was looking for. Neither Amazon or Monoprice carries a cable that is mini on both ends. Ordering now.

Had time for a brief flight after unboxing the Headplay this evening. First impressions are definitely positive. This is the type of view I'd wanted out of my Fat Shark HDs. Amazing sharply and wide. I'd be interested in seeing what everyone else is using for an HDMI mini cable. The cable has...

Just received tracking info on my Headplay. Should be here Monday or Tuesday of next week. Really looking forward to giving these a shot.

Nice! Hopefully one of those red ones will be heading my way soon. Good to see these finally on the verge of shipping.

I have a preorder in. The styrofoam and overall goofy look is a little off-putting, but I'm hoping the wide field of view more than makes up for it. I've tried the latest Fat Shark HDs and was not impressed with the comfort or the narrow field of view. Early word of mouth seems positive for the...
