    New iOS GO App 2.7.2 released (15 Apr 16)

    Having received a new iPad Pro (the smaller version), had no choice but to use the new iOS GO app. I posted the video results in the video section. There are a few subtle changes to the app, and I found it harder to keep track of battery voltage, but the software was stable, no disconnections or...

    New FW 1.8.1.00 Issued 7 Apr 16

    Just posted a video in that section after the FW update, and also the latest GO app for iOS. Comparing the flights with prior firmware I think the controls are more sensitive now, and I had a little more vertical movement during hovering than I was use too. Also I found the auto landing gear...

    After Latest Updates... Inspire I Results

    Here is a segment shot having applied the latest firmware (1.8.1.00 7 Apr) and using the just released DJI Go app (iOS GO App 2.7.2 15 Apr). Managed to get a reasonable result, I think. Was shot in log 4k, mastered to 1080p with LUTs and lens correction applied. Its a version 1 Inspire with X3...

    Australian Coast 4k Show Reel

    Short 4k sequence compiled from Inspire 1 flights in 2015, showing scenes from the Illawarra coast, south of Sydney. Filmed and mastered in 4k log, with LUTs applied.

    New FW 1.8.1.00 Issued 7 Apr 16

    Flew LOS to over 600m with no issues, I do not go further as I need to keep in visual range (old eyes :-)) but so far no disconnections or latency. I fly in a low population coastal area in Australia, so background interference is pretty low.

    New FW 1.8.1.00 Issued 7 Apr 16

    Updated both my Inspire 1 (X3's) aircraft, RC's and 7 batteries with this firmware. Flights today were good. No issues noted. I had an issue with one battery during the update. It initially failed, and aircraft was making a noise like a banshee. Found I had to use another battery to restart...

    Pilot App Crash Report (Latest versions)

    Hi, I had backed up my ipad apps, so was able to reinstall the version I wanted via iTunes. The file is of course associated with my Apple account, so is not transferable. Using the Air 2. Its getting more complex now, with the latest firmware releases, and the latest DJI Go app, but I am...

    Help pls - Editing 4k video in Premiere Pro. Decreasing quality to edit but exporting it back to 4k

    One other comment, which may help. Premier has to work a lot harder if you apply load of filters and corrections, so I do the editing first, then come back and apply effects if needed. Finally, check that the basic file plays - if you have issues before editing etc, then basic throughput is the...

    Sea Cliff Bridge - Messing With Time

    Been playing with time mapping in Premier Pro. Here is the result. What do you think?

    Help pls - Editing 4k video in Premiere Pro. Decreasing quality to edit but exporting it back to 4k

    I edit 4k files from the Inspire in native 4k, but I sometimes dial down the preview settings so I can review the sequence in real time. There is a drop-down dialogue below the preview screen, for me 1/2 works fine. Other thing to try is using an SSD drive which can deliver higher throughput. I...

    iOS Pilot App 1.2.0 Available on App Store

    After extensive testing of iOS 1.2 compared with my "safe bet" 1.1.1, I have to say there are issues with the latest release. After 6 flights in the past two days, there appears to be a regular pattern of disconnection from the IPad Air 2 and video lags. Thankfully no control disconnections, but...

    iOS Pilot App 1.2.0 Available on App Store

    Latest version of iOS seems stable, no resetting of the iPad so far (unlike the previous version). However, no significant improvements in function so far as I can see. Not sure the "Centre Point Reference for Camera View" adds much.

    Pilot App Crash Report (Latest versions)

    I had repeatable problems with the latest iOS app randomly causing the iPad Air 2 to reboot. So reverted to the previous version and have no problems at all. Latest version is definitely suspect - my hypothesis is the extra stuff added to support P3 is the cause.

    Maximum Operating Temperature?

    Another issue you may want to consider is the fact that the rubber dampers which isolate the camera mount get soft - I had mine detach in the air at 36 degrees centigrade in an Australian summer, so I would put a cable tie loosely round to keep it safe - I did a few experiments, and above 35...

    Dropping altitude = disaster

    Sorry to hear about your accident. I have two Inspires and they both have a tendency to drift lower when holding position, but seem fine when on the move. Actually I reckon they drift 1-2m down before settling. I also find the altitude reading displayed on the app goes off as the flight...
