    iPad constantly disconnects from RC. Drone is unusable. Help?!?

    I've had this problem on an iPad Air 2 running iOS 11.4 and also on an iPad Air 2 running the iOS 12 Beta builds. Extremely frustrating as the easy temporary fix is to pull the lightning cable out of the device and plug it back in - but that only lasts a few minutes before it disconnects again...

    Tilted horizons a permanent feature?

    Be that as it may, the Movi M10 with any load I have balanced uses a GPS module and remains entirely level throughout flight regardless of lflight direction, camera orientation, speed of flight. All of these remain a real issue in the Inspire 2 which is a cine grade machine. Apart from this...

    Tilted horizons a permanent feature?

    I think you're misunderstanding. The FPV camera can be tilted when the aircraft is tilted against the wind. The main gimbal camera should remain level as I fly past, for example, a boat and keep the camera on the boat. During this move, my horizon will tilt from level.

    Tilted horizons a permanent feature?

    Hi all, Havin had and Inspire 1 which had very tilted horizons at times, I hoped for better with the Inspire 2. I believe DJI themselves said that there shouldn't be an issue with horizons drifting in this aircraft bit that hasn't been the case for me. After 20 flights or so with the Inspire 2...

    Inspire 2 doesn't turn

    Hey, Can you post what the fix was in case anyone else should encounter this in the wild?

    Focus Calibration comes back blurry every time, even with different lenses.

    Ok, so I have 2 Inspire 1 Pros and I recently invested in an Inspire 2 with the X5s camera. I've been having some trouble getting the best results from it so far. When I used tap to focus out of the box I didn't think it was sharp with the 15mm lens so I tried to do a focus calibrations. On the...

    Correct me if i'm wrong - it's not possible to write to the SSD without a microSD on board?

    Thanks for the reply. Is there a technical reason for this or some other reason that this would be the preferred way of working?

    Correct me if i'm wrong - it's not possible to write to the SSD without a microSD on board?

    Today I committed the ultimate sin and forgot to bring my microSD cards on a shoot. I had everything else with me. I wondered could I fly and write the footage to the SSD only but it seems that this isn't an option. I was offered by the Go 4 App to record to my device (iPad) but this method...

    Terrible horizon drift - even with balanced camera and lens and starting up on flat ground.

    @The Editor Thanks for that, very informative. I also use a Movi 10 for example, and it has a GPS antenna on board for aggressive moves. I thought the Inspire would be able to do the processing itself in a way that meant it would stay level because it's hooked into the FC and the GPS/ IMU...

    Terrible horizon drift - even with balanced camera and lens and starting up on flat ground.

    Hi everyone, I'm a UK based operator who flies a number of aircraft. I'm having real trouble with a stubborn Inspire Pro and X5 camera. I use the 12mm, 15mm and 25mm lenses. I have a good compass calibration, good IMU calibration and always take off with a perfectly balanced camera and lens...

    DJI Inspire 1 Pro - Output 1080i instead of 720p?

    @Kilrah Thanks for the reply. The client is asking because we're mixing into other signals for broadcast which are 1080i. They're going to have to convert my footage but it will be difficult with one source coming in as another type.

    DJI Inspire 1 Pro - Output 1080i instead of 720p?

    Hi everyone, I have a client who would like to take a 1080i feed from the HDMI output on the back of the transmitter rather than the 720p feed that is normally used. 720p is about the same amount of data as 1080i (not 1080p, obviously) from what I understand. Is this possible or am i up...

    DJI Admits Mid-Air Battery Shutoffs Were A Problem

    @damoncooper Extremely discouraging. The last few weeks have drastically reduced my opinion of DJI given their (lack of) customer support and "oh well, your problem" attitude towards many firmware, and even more serious, issues.

    Super noisy D-Log after v1.4.0.70 update?

    Compare and contrast DJI with Apple, who also have vertical integration. DJI need to up their game or I'll be looking to carry cameras of my own choice on custom copters over using an integrated product like the Inspire Pro again.

    Super noisy D-Log after v1.4.0.70 update?

    @Richard Hurst I agree - I wouldn't expect more from the X5R other than a higher bitrate for your noise. Good to hear from the beta team - i emailed my support in too and let my supplier know my thoughts. @Predator Is that so? Does this work? I can't believe we had to wait for an update to...
