    Map Pilot now has Terrain Awareness

    Not sure why they didn't use the National Elevation Dataset instead of SRTM data. NED data, while not available in all areas, is 1/3 arc second which is much higher resolution (10m/pixel) than the SRTM data. This would allow for more accurate terrain following and more consistent GSDs.

    Pix4d versus agisoft

    The pix4d app is all but useless at the current time. I suggest using an app like Maps Made Easy (Map Pilot), or DroneDeploy.

    Photogrammetry on mountainous terrain

    There isn't a commercial app out there that does terrain following. Your best bet is probably to fly it manually.

    Pix4d versus agisoft

    Let me see what I can dig up. How many images would you like to do?

    Pix4d versus agisoft

    I have a license of Pix4D. If someone has a license of Agisoft Photoscan, we could run a comparison of the same dataset for the two.

    What is this thing for?!

    Here's the best solution I've seen so far: DJI X5 Gimbal Lock

    Gimbal won't stay level?

    Wow - thanks for the detailed explanations guys! I haven't had an X3 before, and my last gimbal was only 2-axis. The X5 is my first 'real' platform. What you're saying makes sense - I know I can correct it in the app, but can I expect it to correct itself if I hold position for a few seconds...

    Gimbal won't stay level?

    Johnmont250, I hope that does it. I'll give it a shot in the morning. Joola, is that with the X3 or the X5? Strange only some people seem to have troubles with this, while others are fine.

    Gimbal won't stay level?

    I'm having trouble with my gimbal not staying level on my new X5. I'm new to Inspire's, but it sounds as though this isn't a new problem. Has anyone updated to 1.05 successfully and had this issue fixed? Or is there some other way to fix it? FPV is not on, I've done several gimbal calibrations...

    What are these wiers clips on the X5 bracket for? (picture shown)

    They're for the X5R when it comes out.

    has anyone seen the new prop locks for the inspire pro and?? (video)

    I don't think there's any 'flaw' per se with the old quick releases, but rather these new ones are an improvement in ease and speed of installation. Like when Chevy comes out with a new V8, it doesn't mean the old one was bad, but maybe they found a way to eke out a few more horsepower in the...

    Dimensions of the X5 box

    I modified my case (not of the brand listed above) so that my Inspire fits with the X5 still attached. I like to leave the camera installed and the Inspire in flight mode - makes for a much quicker setup & take down. With the provided gimbal lock installed, the camera is well cradled &...

    RE-calibrating camera?

    Awesome - thanks QuadPilot, much appreciated.

    RE-calibrating camera?

    I'm not 100% sure that I properly calibrated my X5 when I received it. Does anyone know if there is a way to re-do this step? I'm brand new to DJI stuff, and not entirely familiar with the DJI Go app yet.

    Any news on delivery of X5 camera upgrade for I1?

    Just got news that my Inspire 1 Pro showed up at my vendor this morning. Of course I'm out in Vegas at the commercial UAV Expo until Thursday.
