    X4s (mechanical) v X5s (electronic)

    Not sure if you know this but a mechanical shutter can also give rolling shutter. . The image is scanned from top to bottom progressively by the moving blades.This means that parts of the image are scanned at different times to give rolling shutter effects. A mechanical shutter is not the same...

    Some hope for a higher bit rate in the future?

    Of course DJI or anyone associated with them would say the P4P beats the X5 hands down because they want you to buy their new equipment! I did a still photo comparison test between a P4P and X5 with the standard lens. I printed photos out to A3 size. I then got 10 people to do a blind test not...

    So has the DJI X5 has reached it's EOL

    Yep, i did some tests comparing the X5 with the P4P. The X5 had the DJI 15mm standard lens. I took some identical shots of some houses and printed them out to A3 size. The result was that there is very little difference, no matter how close you look. I tested about 10 people and most had to look...

    Need first time drone advice, buy the inspire 1 v2 or the Phantom 4 Pro?

    Not entirely true unless you are just going by the Mp. The sensor on the Inspire X5 has almost twice the area of the P4P. P4P: 1" 13.2mm x 8.8mm. Area = 116 sqmm Inspire X5: M4/3 sensor 17.3mm x 13mm. Area = 225 sqmm If sensor size means anything the X5 should win even though the P4P has more...

    Need first time drone advice, buy the inspire 1 v2 or the Phantom 4 Pro?

    Where can you get an Inspire 1 for $2200 AUD? I would really like to know!! Also I am not sure if you have your camera specs correct. The P4P has a 1" sensor (20Mp) and the Inspire with the X5 camera has a M4/3 sensor (much bigger but less Mp 16Mp). So which is better? the smaller sensor P4P or...

    Living in Australia I see a lot of things for sale in the US but postage is very high. e.g.. $139US for that X5. Postage from the UK and Japan is always much cheaper.

    Prop Locks?

    1. The V1 self-tightening props can come loose with hard flying, so DJI have the "prop locks", small plastic locks that prevent any further un-doing. 2. I have had a prop come off my Phantom 3 on my 3rd flight and crashed badly because I believed the "self-tightening" myth that instills false...

    Why I am staying with the original props...

    It seems like there are 2 distinct groups of people. Those who like the old screw-on props and those who swear by the new quick release. I have an engineer friend who looked at the QR system and didn't like it from a structural point of view. Although he had no data or experience to base his...
