    DRONE -WORLD?

    Sad. I ordered my original Inspire V2.0 from them several years back and aside from not including some cheesy little cheap drone that was part of the promotional, the transaction went fairly smooth. Really had the hots for the "Eagle Edition" they had advertised just a couple months back and was...

    DRONE -WORLD?

    Yes Sir! I only dealt with the company in the United States. When I try going to there website I receive a "forbidden 403" message.

    DRONE -WORLD?

    Apologies. I keep forgetting this site covers the entire globe. Drone-World was located in the United States. Also South Africa. My dealings was with the US company. They are supposed to be a DGI approved certified dealer.

    DRONE -WORLD?

    I have been out of circulation for a couple years and thinking about jumping back in the game. Been reading lots of good stuff about the new Inspire 2. My las t Inspire was a V2.0. Dearly loved it but had to part with it. ANYWAY, I purchased my Inspire from Drone-World . I caught one of there...

    REVIEW: Smart Power Charger DJI Inspire 1 SPC4500

    Ouch! I don't know the exact number of times I have used mine only that it has never failed me. Have you contacted the company yet? I would hope they can repair your charger. How long have you owned it? Possibly still under warranty? I know I am playing the Devils Advocate here but everything...

    REVIEW: Smart Power Charger DJI Inspire 1 SPC4500

    To each his own. Yes, the charger is expensive but so is everything else related to DJI products. I got my Smart Charger about a year ago and my only compliant is I waited so long to pull the trigger. You do know you can plug your iPad and transmitter in to the charger while the batteries are...

    Used Inspire Purchase Advice

    Question Sir? Is this something you can do just by touch or should I use some type of electronic/digital thermometer?

    Somebody's good with an airbrush...

    My 2 cents. I think it looks pretty zoot myself. As for the resale value, you are going to get the shaft no matter what. I invested close to $5000 in my Inspire 1 V2.0 a couple years ago. Were I to try to sell it on eBay today I would consider myself lucky to get a $1000 for the whole setup. And...

    USA So. Couldn't use my Part WTF!?07 license the other day...

    Right up front, I am one of the dreaded HOBBIEST you mentioned in the post above. Also I am 66 years young which makes me a double danger to you licensed elitist. I fly for the sheer joy of flying. I am retired, I AM NOT looking for any extra curricular jobs. I have NO intention of treading on...

    Hibernation strategy ...

    Thank you once again Sir! I will indeed follow the thread. Tried eating peanuts once to give me that Elephantine memory you mentioned but they just made me gassy. :eek:

    Hibernation strategy ...

    I have severe CRS and would like to find a way to mark post like this one (and several others) for future reference so I don't end up asking the same question over and over. Is there a way to do that?

    Friday Night Lights!

    GAAAAAAAK-I had almost convinced myself I didn't really need to buy an X-5. Now I see just how wrong I was!! Beautiful pic's!!! Thank you, Sir for sharing and especially Thank You for sharing how you went about taking the pictures!

    Inspire 2 Announcement: September 27th 11:30am

    Apologies to you, The Editor, and anyone else I offended with my political comments. You are correct, this is not a political forum. You did mention the "FFA" GordieSea. Not sure what Future Farmers of America has to do with this forum either. Unless you were referring to the FAA, (Federal...
