Well, there's "beauty," but.... For me, dual operator was the deal maker for the Inspire series. It's what allowed me to break into the film industry. The deal breaker for all of the DJI offerings pre gen 3 was the inability to rack focus or rack the aperture, which is partially why I got out...

My thoughts regarding the Remote ID have been that if one is flying where (and how) one is supposed to be flying (outside of controlled airspace), one's drone operations should basically be transparent to the rest of the aviation community. I concede that exceptions should be made for...

Try going back to a later version like v1.09.xx.xx. Try it with and without the Magic Key file. And I don't know if I mentioned this, but use the X3, not the X5. D

Try the "Magic Key" file highlighted in my video. Keep in mind that this is more art than science which equals different results for different people and drones. As it has been pointed out, there are different versions of the Inspire 1. My experiments were conducted mostly on the Pro. Be...

I appreciate it. I just thought it was funny. You have a great day. D

Check the Device Manager? That's awesome advice! Where'd you get THAT from? 1. 2. 3. D

My advice was to confirm driver compatibility in the Device Manager. There has been no response to that advice. Without basic driver confirmation, any and all other measures are moot. Assistant 2 will never connect to a device that doesn't first connect to Windows. D

For what it is worth, the Mini USB ports on my old Hero3 camera DID transmit (output) analog video. This port was also the charging and/or data port (if memory serves). So, while your ports look like Micro USB ports used for data, they MAY also transmit analog video. According to my research...

I take this to mean that Windows DOES have a driver for the drone, yes? And that you followed my advice and confirmed this in the Device Manager, yes? D

I assume you mean that you disabled Windows' Real-time protection, yes? Have you disabled adblock software? This will often prevent the download window from opening. Which browsers are you using? Try different browsers. Some browsers will simply not work for some things in some situations...

The "S" model propellers look like a completely different form factor to me. I'd say "no" on that. D

Your drone is the Inspire 1 Pro v2, "D model." It will use the OEM props for that model. Part 69 1345T (also referred to as the 1345T Quick Release Propellers). Disclaimer; I'm not at home, so this information is derived from memory and research. Ergo, I'm on 90% sure that this information...

Up until the end of 2024 I was regularly flying and generating revenue with my Inspire 1. I haven't flown her in a year, but I still tend to the batteries and keep them at storage capacity. I generated close to 6-figures with that bird. I'm sure I could fly her tomorrow if I wanted to. D

Did the issue start after you updated your Inspire 1 firmware? D

You should be more specific. EOL can mean a few different things. For instance, a battery that will no longer charge has certainly reached EOL, but maybe you're not interested in that type of battery. Please clarify. D
