After 1.11 upgrade my video HD range dropped to half and has never returned. It's funny that I get the brand new I1 V2 with 1.9 firmware it's freaking awesome. Bought a Z3 camera and ordered XT thermal camera then 1.11 firmware comes out a few days later and my I1 is now a huge disappointment...

I went with the Inspire 1 V2 instead of the Inspire 2 this month personally. I was all set to buy the Inspire 2 and found out the XT thermal camera didn't work and there was also no zoom type camera like the Z3. DJI should have left the camera interface the same between the I1 and I2. I will...

For the average "hobby" type user the forced updates may/may not be a huge deal breaker right now. I fully understand that point and most people with one drone can afford to walk away from it if something happens they don't like. That is a valid point for these people and yes I wouldn't worry so...

They do have some well thought out thermal setups I've also spoke with them several times. I do believe they said on the Inspire they can get the video through the Go app , but must other setups require a separate video monitor and transmitter. I went with the XT thermal Gimbal just like the...

I spent 10K in DJI products this month. Its Alittle late for me not to worry about it :) Just saying. And yes I do plan to look for another company to do business with in the future. The above actions really concern me long term as I've invested thousands of dollars based on the...

Great it's only Mavic owners so its OK DJI forces updates tor grounds Mavic owners then. Honestly I very calm, just pointing out the fact I've never seen a company force a update like this ever on a legal owner of anything. Just saying feel free to show me examples in the USA: I do believe...

I received pretty much the same Sept. 1 message while flying my Mavic today. Update or your craft will not fly on Sept 1. I'm not sure if this is even legal maybe a class action lawsuit on the way since people in the USA like to sue nowadays.Even Apple ask owners permission before updating...

I guess we need beer coolers for our IPad Mini's. Only a matter of time before we see 3 D printed ones for sale on eBay now :) The good thing is I'm pretty certain it's not a drone or firmware issue. Now the best fix is for fall to get here and shut down the 90-100 degree temps and high humidity!

I really don't have a great cool pack system just a cold pack wrapped in a towel behind IPad for my testing. I mainly just started testing ideas/settings to try to solve the issue of jumpy/lagging video and CPU warnings popping up the last two weeks. I flew today had the same above listed issues...

I started having this issue and CPU IPad warning lately also flying my Mavic Pro. When it happens my live video feed gets jumpy. I turned off all the settings etc etc nothing worked 100%. I really noticed it was my brand new IPad mini 4 cellular getting hot then the issues started. I tried...

Thanks for all the feedback, I have found two thermal solutions for the I2 now and also a good way to go on the I1 V2. Will make a decision next week and order.

I had my mind set on a new Inspire 2 and adding a thermal camera down the road. Then, I see over on the inspire 2 forum there is no XT thermal camera or confirmed plans from DJI to even add it ever which is a deal killer for me. Now I'm back to ground zero as I was planning to order the...

I have one for the Mavic it's been awesome :)

I saw a early beta boson 320 system at a trade show couldn't believe how tiny the new sensor package is. Is going to change thermal for drones big time. Basically , most everything out there now has become undated sadly with the boson release. Watch for discounts and sales next 12 months on...

The newest technology is the FLIR boson it's cheaper, smaller, lighter and higher performing. We should start seeing it show up big time in drones it's perfect for this application. It should also lower the cost for guys looking to build thermal drone setups. I haven't put Thermal in the air ...
