    Updates after being mothballed for 2 years

    Donnie, You are most welcome! The shots you posted look very clean (low digital noise/good resolution). The X5 quality does become very apparent, a necessity for commercial work for sure. I might look into purchasing one for the primary drone (#1) for special events at school if the Ipad Air 2...

    Updates after being mothballed for 2 years

    Donnie, Many thanks for your posting of the process involved getting the firmware back down from 1.11 to 1.08; I really appreciate what you have done and are doing for this community...well done! I have two Inspire 1's for my high school students, and one well-intentioned student upgraded #2 to...

    DIssapointing Range

    Pretty sure it is "shaking my head"...but that never really adds to an on-line inquiry. As others have posted, try to improve your line-of-sight transmission (if possible) with the low-cost reflectors as they do help a lot.

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    Hi, Short update to the saga; the bricked X3 works perfect with the Osmo Handle kit, so the high school kids now have a gimbal-stabilized 4K wireless camera for their use. That kind of turned the lemon into lemonade for us here. Both Inspire 1 drones got flown during the winter thaw up here in...

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    I'm glad that you got it resolved under warranty, I am not as fortunate, as my solve was only to buy a new X3, which really stinks, but it does work... Regards, Edd

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    My issues are limited to one of the two X3's (one with most recent firmware). I wish it was a signal cable or pins on the mount, which would be an easy fix. Getting an X3 bricked by a firmware upgrade is pretty foul, at any level, and it does not matter (from posts seen on a variety sites, such...

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    Andy, Please keep us informed; I have had zero success hearing back from DJI on this issue, and I am really interested to find out their (DJI's) solution that they need to offer.. My old X3 (old firmware) works fine with the AC/RC with the updated firmware, so it will stay firmly attached to...

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    Andy, Thanks for the update, most appreciated here. I did post the issue on the DJI Inspire 1 Forum a few hours ago, but no bites as of yet. My other Inspire 1 and Phantom 2 will be staying at their current firmware levels at this point, as they have zero issues, and I plan on keeping it that...

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    Andy, So your Inspire 1 was fine also, prior to the upgrade (V1.10.1.40)? What was the prior installed firmware version? I cannot fathom how this issue has not been addressed by DJI; read post #8 (The Editor). He never answered the question about the source of his info, so all bets are off as...

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    I have already purchased and am awaiting delivery of another X3. As a retired E.E. & M.E. with 40+ years of systems design in my background and an AMA member for 32 years, I cringe when I read through the various postings, mostly having to due with so-called "updates" that have been poorly...

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    "Some early X3's suffered this intermittent video issue (usually after a FW flash but was not firmware version related). Never did get to the bottom of it and DJI will never admit it." The Inspire 1 with the imaging problems was purchased in November of 2015 (not sure of production date), my...

    X3 Live Image problems after 1.10.1.40 Update

    Alastair and eldorado, Thanks for your replies and comments; most appreciated. I have the same 5x5 on the quality bars also; go figure as they say. I decided to up the odds by ordering another new X3, and trying that out of the box at whatever level the firmware is at. I have not opened the...
