    Whats our gear worth these days? Closing our aerial business down :( and having a moan

    Just like anything business related, you have to change with the times and the technology. I've been a pro photographer since 1985 (yeah, back in the Neanderthal film days), and I rode that wave of true professional photography in my business for many years. Made a lot of money too. Then when...

    Upgrading to X5 from Inspire V1

    Have you had any problems with your v1 motors and the added weight of the X5?

    Upgrading to X5 from Inspire V1

    I upgraded my v1 model to pro and an x5. Definitely feel the difference when flying, but picture quality is much better. My X3 just stopped working right though. At first, all was well, but then I started noticing jello effect a few months ago. Today, I tried to fly after not using it for a...

    Yes. No little hat. :(

    Original Inspire 1 video transmission interference

    I saw that post somewhere. Unfortunately, I cannot bring up the "graduate hat" for the life of me. It's not visible in this version of the DJI Go app. Any suggestions? Thanks for the reply though! Oh, one more thing. Since updating my craft to V2 (with all of the hardware to hold the X5), I'm...

    Original Inspire 1 video transmission interference

    Thanks for the reply. I have never "rolled back" a firmware before. Do you have a link to a tutorial on how to do that? This is so frustrating!

    Negative altitude with inspire 1

    First of all, I personally very much appreciate the forum. I read it all the time. I have been lucky - until today - to not have any significant issues with my I1 (I posted for help with my issue and am hoping for an answer). Regarding this thread though, I guess sometimes it's best to say...

    Could he/she have been more rude? Not cool.

    Original Inspire 1 video transmission interference

    I have an original Inspire 1 that I use professionally. I arrived on location today to do an aerial shoot for a realtor and I was unable to receive any video transmission (using my X3 camera). The app (which forced itself to update this morning prior to the shoot) indicated there was some kind...

    Upgrading to X5 from Inspire V1

    Would you please tell me what differences you did notice? I just bought the X5 for my v1 and I'd like to know what to expect. Also, will I need to download the Inspire 1 Pro F/W for the X5 and install it?

    Upgrading to X5 from Inspire V1

    I finally bit the bullet and ordered an X5 for my v1. Can anyone tell me the procedure to upgrade firmware for this modification? Will I need to use the v2 pro firmware?

    Why did the picture turn out like this?

    Yeah, I should have pointed out how the parking spaces are angled as well. This all just needs to be explained to the client.

    Should I get my Inspire 1 out of the pawn shop??

    There is no reason to ditch your Inspire 1 just because there is a new version out. Plenty of people, including myself, have made money with the Inspire one and we continue to do so. There will always be something better out there. Does this mean the Inspire 2 owners will have to ditch their...

    Why did the picture turn out like this?

    This appears more like an optical illusion rather than lens distortion. The buildings on the left are parallel and even to the camera lens but the buildings on the right were constructed at an angle in relation to the buildings on the left. This makes it appear as though they are drooping down...
