    Yet another fly-away

    I assume switch to ATTI is still ok, since I could not activitate it, I dont know for sure in the end. I am actually starting to understand why you can switch off the engines during flight, in case of a fly-away like I had that might actually make sense before someone get hurt.

    What's the confidence level with current Inspire drones?

    At first, I was quite worried about the fly-away stories, but with the increasing number of flights and newer firmwares, I was actually feeling quite comfortable with the Inspire.

Some key lessons learned though: a) DJI disables multiple flight modes following firmware updates as...

    Won't launch from boat so I'm selling

    This is indeed a major issue. Like some of you, I ordered an Inspire to use on a boat amongst others. Given that my confirmed order for December still has not shipped, the now lack of IOS support (only devices I have) and now lack of usability from boats, I am starting to consider cancelling...
