I spent 3 months cruising Alaska by boat in Summer of 2016 and spent a lot of time filming. This is the highlights from the trip.The bulk of the footage is filmed on an Inspire 1 with X5. Some ground shots are with the X5 attached to Osmo and a couple are from a Nikon D500 (mainly the couple...

I would definitely second Ben's suggestion on getting a practice quad... it will be a big help in getting the hang of flying before putting the Inspire on the line. The Nano QX he mentioned is under $100 on amazon. You can get ones as cheap as $20. You can practice in your living room with these...

Hmm, that is interesting if that's their official position... I've definitely read some accounts of people getting support after aircraft crashing into water... if that's the case then maybe the whole question is mute and I'm on my own either way. Perhaps I will contact official support and...

Does the warranty not apply if you are using a 3rd party app? I mean the app is sort of bottom of the chain-of-command, and the physical radio transmitter should be able to override any erratic app behavior no?

Wondering if anyone has insight on this... If flying with 3rd party app (say, litchi) and there is a glitch in-flight that causes a crash (lets assume aircraft is completely lost... ie: fell in water or something), will I be at a disadvantage in terms of dealing with DJI? I'm assuming I will...

I'm just going to say, regardless of the legality of the flight or anything else, this still sounds like a technical failure of the craft. And, since that is the topic of thread, why the need for all the hostility? I just got an Inspire Pro and I plan on flying it extensively in challenging...
