I purchased a I1 on early 2015 and flew it in many different environments and situations, from Africa deserts to sails and motorboats, flight after flight gaining confidence about I1 was a rock solid flying platform, compact and easy to deploy.
Yes, sometimes FW updates brought some problems, but overall al was fine.
On April I moved to I1 pro.... and my troubles started. Not with the X5 itself but with I1 as an affordable flying platform.
First I experienced many many poor signal messages even in short flights (never seen before), after I had a nightmare experience ... a total signal loss (without any prior warning) at short distance (less than 50mt) with an automatic RTH. As we were in a rough terrain... I had to catch the I1 by hands to prevent serious damages.
I updated the FW to the last version... one of the 2 controllers is bricked and on its way to DJI....
During my first flights after the update I noticed the "limiting motors power" in basically no winds.... what's happening?
Before, filming with I1 was a matter of trying to catch the better shots.... now all the tension is focused on solving problems and cross fingers or voodoo prays to prevent more troubles.
Is Inspire 1 still an affordable flying platform? In this moment, for me, NOT.
Please DJI tell us what's happening.... did your engineers and sw developers had a long vacation or a loon beer party? Let us this nightmare cease.
