    X5R camera spins out of control on startup?

    Well done to your vendor and to you. I wish my vendor had looked after me in the same manner as yours. I'm very jealous, but very happy for you.

    Hello from Newcastle Australia

    Welcome and enjoy your flying. Sorry I'm not close enough to join you otherwise I would. I'm in Olinda Victoria, but I've had my Inspire One pretty much from when it was first released. I have had many hours of fun flying and taking great aerial videos with the X3 and X5 Gimbals. I am now...

    X5R camera spins out of control on startup?

    I had a similar problem. DJI said I had damaged it and I would have to pay for it to be repaired. $400 AU. I did not ague the point as I thought it would be pointless and all I wanted to do was to get it back ASAP, but my problems started after a firmware upgrade. My Inspire One had not been...

    Matrice 600 vs Inspire 1 Pro/Raw Industrial Use

    Dear Editor, Thank you for responding to my request for some guidance. I was completely unaware of the A2 issues, which you mentioned. This makes me think I should hold off for a little while. That being said one would hope that DJI would learn from their previous mistakes and not release the...

    Matrice 600 vs Inspire 1 Pro/Raw Industrial Use

    I am getting very close to purchasing the M600, MX gimbal and A3 Pro System. I currently have Phanton series and Inspire One Pro. You appear to have a much broader level of knowledge about alternative craft to the DJI M600 and I would appreciate your advice. My reasons for going with M600 is...

    Z3 or X5 is the better camera?

    Hi Keith, I have used both the X3 and the X5. I found the X5 produces better quality video and photos and I believe this is due to three factors. 1. The MFT Sensor, 2, The better camera optics and 3. The improved gimbal performance. Having said that the X3 still produces high quality video...

    Erratic X5 Camera activity!

    Sorry to hear that Nick. I've used Phantoms in the past, but have found the Inspire One to be more stable and quite the opposite to what you are experiencing. I live 50 Km outside Melbourne, Australia in a rural setting and was flying in open space, but with strong gusty wind conditions the...

    UK Uk Footage for Aussie TV....

    I agree with everything you have said DennisR. Any TV Station will have post production facilities to take the source video and convert it. i.e.up, down, cross and standards conversions between virtually all SD, HD and Ultra HD formats and frame rates, including 3:2 cadence removal. So there...

    Erratic X5 Camera activity!

    Here is something you might like to try! Go into manual focus and see if things improve. The observation I make from the video is that the focus point is very close. It may be that in auto focus mode it can not focus and is trying to auto focus hence the movement, but it cannot due to the...

    Warning to all X5 owners

    I think your assumptions about poor piloting skills are responsible for damaged X5 gimbals are ill founded. I believe there is now enough information within this forum alone to suggest the build quality or the materials (the alloys) they use are not fit for purpose or built as robust as it...

    Warning to all X5 owners

    I have just had a catastrophic failure with my X5 gimbal. I have had no accidents while flying the Inspire One or heavy landings. What happened in my case was after a firmware upgrade and on rebooting the Inspire I had a judder occur in the Gimbal. After going through a number of steps to...

    Hi Steve, I've just purchase the Inspire One and have had a couple of beginner flights. I also have the Vision and Vision Plus. I would be interested to hear you thoughts on the Inspire One as you appear to have had a lot of experience flying different multicopters. My experience is somewhat...
