There is another reason: safety. It is difficult enough to get disoriented when yawing. Add to that camera panning and you can completely lose track of your direction, especially because there is only one camera. By separating it into two controllers each person has a role and while the...

Finally a good explanation. Now, for other people to thoroughly test this with an actual unit. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Great start, and will need to mature. I found the restriction about not flying when there are clouds quite limiting. If someone wants to claim you were flying illegally, they just need to point to a cloud in the sky. Also the requirements to have a fire extinguisher pretty much rules out the...

Beautiful video. Great filmography with the flyby the EXPAND. around 22 seconds in: Loved the shot coming down while moving parallel to the sign (EXPAND) and keeping the camera centered on it. that required 3 degrees of control, very well done!

Sorry, but I am not impressed by marketing material. I may be hyped, but I want the facts. As to this date, there have been plenty of videos shot from the inspire however none that has footage during camera tilt. There must be a reason why they are hiding this. From my perspective, shake...

@Noel, no problem. Now let's get DJI to acknowledge it and tell us what they are doing about it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Unless I am mistaken Noel, we are not talking about the same shake. The shake I discovered is induced as a result of tilting the camera, not as a result of changing the arms configuration. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks for clarifying. The inspire may be a breakthrough device. It would be a pity to mar its real abilities with hype. On the other hand we need objective reviews. In this day and age when companies employ media teams to post comments on forums as users, it becomes more difficult to get the...

If it is a pre-production unit, and Ed has some sort of affiliation with DJI, then I believe that calling this thread "First owner video" is misleading... Hopefully, Ed will clarify.

Ed, Thanks for the video. Would be great if you could do the following experiments and post your footage: 1. full camera tilt while hovering. 2. full camera tilt while moving forward 3. full camera tilt while moving sideways Also, please do a few tilts at various angular speeds so we can see if...

The sonar part is the restricting one. With optical flow you would not be limited to a certain altitude. I have looked at sonar sensors, and they get significantly large for longer distances. Even the larger ones are limited in range, max being about 20 meters. On a drone you have other...

Unfortunately, it is not just you :-( Could be a youtube artifact?

I have them and the image is like a 55" diagonal TV at about 4 ft. Still looks great. Actually amazing. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I don't know in what context this video was originally provided however this one shows that the gimbal is actually compensating very nicely. Just focus on the people and you will see that the image is very solid, with minimal right to left shakes on the extreme movements of the inspire. They...

I'll believe it when I see someone from this forum test the unit and confirm. As of now the only confirmed thing is the visible shake when tilting the camera up or down as can be seen on the video above. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
