DJI - FIRMWARE - Where we stand!



I would also like to know what my update holds, what items I should keep eye for and all, but It's too much to ask from DJI. Just like last cold battery firmware update, I am sure all of the guys who lost drones due to that update would like to know about it.

DJI, LOL
 


He's got a point..There having a lot of problems and opinions over there. I must say reading these forums can be pretty stressful worrying about when the catastrophe is coming..
 
I have a friend who has Inspire 1, reading all this forums and only has 1 hour of flight time on the inspire in about a year, LOL
I figured if it's going to happen, nothing you can do if it's a freak accident. I do my best to stay safe, but no one is guaranteed.
Stay safe and enjoy.
 
Can you elaborate a bit on the reasons you like the X3 better on your OSMO?... Are you referring to the quality of video, how it handles movement, etc.?
Thanks!
Yes the gimbal is smoother its better quality. But downside it wont lock. The IQ is the same i'm pretty sure but i preffer the i1 X3 and the other factor is the i1 X3 infinite focus. Everything is in focus so imo its better yes.
 
I have a question that no one has been able to answer for me. I have the original Inspire 1 but have updated my camera to the X5, which firmware do I use? The Inspire 1 which is the 1.6.0.40 or do I use the 1.3.0.60 which is for the Pro. I have been told by DJI person to use the Pro firmware because of the camera, but yet the Pro model has newer heavier duty motors which I assume take different frmware updates than the older motors. which may be why some people are being bricked by these updates. DJI is very confusing when it comes to all these things, never really explaining to users what is going on. Any help would be appreciated.
 
If you used the Inspire 1 firmware, it wouldn't work, so you will need to use the Inspire Pro firmware as that is what you have updated to with the x5 gimbal
 
Generally all updates I have done have gone without a hitch. The most recent one however did strange things to my custom camera settings, which I didn't check as they had never been reset prior to this update. I was also in a great spot with amazing evening light, and in a hurry to catch the moment. All looked good on my iPad screen, flew the shot a few times... Checked the file when I got back to camp on my laptop and it looked crap. Turned the I1 on and checked settings on the GO app.... Sharpness +3, contrast +3, saturation +3.

Guess I'll be checking a bit more thoroughly after the next update.....
 
it ask me( made me) to go from 1.5 to 1.6 will test tomorrow hope no glitch on it trusting editor
 

I've updated mine with the Inspire 1 FW. So far no problem.
 
Hello,
New here. I updated the FW to WM610_FC550_FW_V01.03.00.60.bin. Worked out OK but when I start up the I1 with my new X5, the camera stops 30° to the left, not straight forward as normal. What shall I do to uninstal the FW? Just downgrade to WM610_FC550_FW_V01.03.00.60.bin? And than install the latest again?
Thanks in advance.

Chris,
From your text above, we can't identify if you have a Inspire 1 or an Inspire 1 Pro?
The many issues of people complaining are mostly user/operator created issues, not reading everything. The simple is your should always have the latest updates in the following sequence: DJI GO App, then the RC Controller, then the Aircraft and finally all your batteries. This should basically keep you out of trouble.
