In Firmware 1.05.011 is a hidden limit which restricts SDK Software to 500m altitude limit. As this is NOT real altitude over ground but just fictious altitude over starting point which actually can cause the Inspire to fly into a mountain this is a severe and unsafe limitation.
I will stay with Firmware 1.04.010 and not install future updates with hidden downgrades from DJI.
In version 1.4.010 this limit can be bypassed even for DJI GO if it is set with other software. Dont misunderstand this - its not for flying 500m over ground its for starting at 1500 alt on a mountain and flying up to 2200m as example but still being only 50m over ground all the time.
I cannot see at the moment what fabulous inventions DJI could bring in their future firmwares to change my mind. In my opinion the encryption stuff will bring more limits and is just a hoax to drive people into the altitude limit which is not documented in the release notes.
DJI already downgraded some features previousely - of course also undocumented:
- the Orbit cannot be set with more then 500m radius anymore (no fix known until to date)
- channels reduces from 32 to 8 (could be repaired for manual mode at least)
- severe speed reduction of 20 km/h in all GPS modes (no fix known up to date)
Even in Atti its already under the specifications advertised already.
If I would have ordered an Inspire Pro I would be concerned now which firmware it will have installed.
If anyone knows a fix of one of the problems or knows someone who could made a custom firmware and remove that downgrades help would be appreciated.
