Time to sell one of my Inspire 1's. This was bought to fly commercially in France and comes with the required parachute system and DGAC paperwork (S1, S2 and S3). It has had such little use that it's time to move it on. It was modified soon after purchase with ceramic bearings from Boca Bearings...

In addition to the wise words above, I would also suggest you give careful consideration to both disk management and file/library management. It is very easy to quickly fill HDD's as video files are, by their nature, large and over time if you do not closely manage files, it is easy to end up...

More idiots and more bad press but, at least in this instance, DJI is offering a decent incentive to get these people:- Cash offered after drones disrupt flights in China - BBC News I guess the responsible amongst us will be burdened by yet more red-tape and 'hoop jumping' whilst the morons run...

PM'd you, Jmann.....

I have three surplus sets of new/unused, still in their packaging, dronehi.re prop adapters for sale. I ordered too many sets (whoops) before they ceased manufacturing these excellent adapters! These fit any T-Motor style prop (12mm spacing between mounting screws) - I use them with the T-Motor...

I agree with 'emtea' above, dronehi.re were unprofessional to deal with but their product seems very good... I have had zero problems and done many, many flights. However, they have stopped manufacturing their prop adapters, dunno why. However, I messed up my order with them some months ago and...

☝️...sorry, not for the first time, I'm talking rubbish.....they are actually the 1448's....

I run T-motor 1545''s with dronehi.re prop adapters on both my Inspire 1 V2's...one with an X5 and other with the X3....superb prop and comes pre-balanced. I also use boca bearings hybrid bearings on the 3510H's....motors not even warm after a 20 min flight....but that's another thread!

......or if you fly commercially in France where it is a DGAC requirement. I have no experience of this 'Lite' version but I use their Mars 58 V2 on my Inspire 1 Pro to meet these DGAC requirements. Never had to use it but Mars parachutes are a market leader and is good kit....but pricey!

I think the clue might be that the seller only registered with eBay on March 15 and has zero feedback.....mmmmmm

My apologies.... I gave duff info.... YES, the Smartpowercharge does discharge batteries to '0'% as part of the deep cycle process.... you cannot discharge to 50% for storage.

Brad....the Angel safely discharges TB batteries in a controlled manner....either to 50% for storage or to '0'% (not literally zero percent but the minimum voltage per cell without damaging the cells). The Angel does not charge batteries. The Smartpower chargers can only charge...

Brad/Yt2 ..... the best kit to discharge I1 batteries is the Inspire Angel..... don't muck about with anything else... you need one of these >> Phantom Angel

A big beast that's capable of 8hrs flight time using a combo of electric and internal combustion... interesting :- S. Korea, Israel Unveil Drone with Hybrid Engine

Mmmmmm, OK..... so I guess I wont be posting any flight pics of my back garden for a while! Fantastic experience, fantastic pictures ..... thank you for sharing them here.
