    TB48 - disaster time

    I feel your pain - having acquired what looked like good used batteries and then needing to replace 2 of them. I can totally understand the post on "avoid used batteries" (unless you know their history really well). It might be nice if manufacturers offered battery components, but the battery...

    DEAD Brand New TB-47.

    This has appeared in a couple threads on the forum . . . seems to be a fairly common issue of late for the batteries delivered with the Inspire 1. People I spoke with said that the standalone batteries tend to be ok. A recent thread: New aircraft, dead battery?

    Inspire V1 VS Pro

    X3 has a wider field of view than the X5, so at a given distance from a subject (building, group of people, etc), the X5 will show more detail than the X3. The X5 also has more pixels on the sensor. (I believe the X3 gives you about 4000x3000 pixel images; the X5 can give you 4608x3456.) On...

    Firmware help please

    Make sure you are on the correct Inspire page on the DJI site. Easy to get on the wrong one (plain ol I1) and the Pro does nothing with those files. Link for Pro/Raw firmware: Inspire 1 Pro - Specifications, FAQ, video tutorials, manuals and DJI GO | DJI Take the Inspire 1 Pro firmware files...

    Mapping with I1Pro

    If the app is actually messing up the focus, consider setting focus to infinity and then slide the AF/MF switch on the lens to MF. (In other words, set MF in DJI Go, tap on infinity, then slide the switch on the lens.) Don't forget to slide it back whenever you go back to normal flying.

    Please help me understaning where i am wrong

    To me it looked like the focus was set for close-in subjects (when you landed, the grass was fairly sharp). Did you tap on distant objects to change the focus while you were in flight? (it is an easy thing to forget, having forgotten it completely on my first flight :-)) A common...

    Mapping with I1Pro

    Hi. Looks like you're using the DJI stock lens. Aperture at the time of exposure was recorded as f/2.2. If you can specify an aperture to the app, I'd suggest f/5.6 or f/8.0 I've found that wide open or really stopped down, the stock lens was soft. f/4 to f/8 seemed to be the sweet spot...

    Downgrade from 1.9 to 1.8

    I had a similar problem with my I1Pro. Turns out I was using the wrong link on the firmware - d'oh! Somehow I ended up on the plain ol Inspire-1 page, not the I1Pro-Raw page (which has separate links for the Pro vs Raw). I was just typing in the dji URL and then going straight to the...

    USA Remote Pilot in Command (Part 107) Log Books

    If it is required by feds or insurance, I will log it in a separate logbook (most likely electronic) since your UAV time won't count towards your total manned aircraft time or recency of experience. And I suspect I'd log it in minutes instead of tenths of hours. I don't recall a requirement...
