    Travel mode - or, the irony of the Inspire 1...

    I always assumed it used the sonar since it's the only way to determine the distance (because unlike the phantom 4, the inspire only have one optical sensor below), so a hard, acousticreflective surface (like glass) should work perfectly, while a soft surface, like a mat, would not work, or at...

    "Swallowing a battery can be harmful" :-D

    Not legal for use in the USA?

    The mx can rotate freely and if you don't want a cable limiting the rotation, you can send the video wirelessly a few centimeters from the mx to the aircraft and then send it via LB2. Or at least that's the way dji choose to do it. Some say that other manufacturers use sliprings to send the...

    Not legal for use in the USA?

    And isn't the RC signal to the FC going via LB too?

    Someone talk me out of returning my X5 Pro

    In worst case scenario, buy an X3 camera to your drone.

    inspire1 dynamic home point

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I am pretty sure that the RC has a built in GPS. I have an iPad 2 mini WiFi only and I can see my position on the map. I just checked the manual and it says it too.

    What do you think about this test?

    I actually noticed that on my first startup, got an inspire 1 pro a month ago. Wanted to test the image quality (I can't use auto WB, it's horrible to adjust in post). But people has been talking about that it doesn't keep the camera settings between battery changes and things like that, so I...

    Calibrating Lens?

    That sounds like the worst way ever to handling focusing but who knows :-P

    Calibrating Lens?

    Exactly, contrast based should be totally fine. It may take a little bit longer to focus but that should not be a problem here. Maybe if they slow down the focusing process, it will not miss focus so often, or something like that.

    Calibrating Lens?

    According to Eric Cheng, the focus is contrast based and not phase detection based.

    ..X5 has different FOV...

    Unrelated but this must be the sharpest video I've seen from the x5 so far :-)
