You dont get it, The Inspire has 360 degree 2nd camera operator for the professional Pilot and Camera Operator working together. Also the Inspire has HDMI output on both remotes which is needed again for the profession web streamers broadcasting live events from the copter. Also the Inspire flys much faster forward flight as well as much better blade clearance with its landing gear.I think that yesterday DJI killed the I1 appeal... a consumer product like P3 now has the SAME camera, SAME controller, SAME app, SAME light bridge.... for less than half the price. DJI marketing director should make a long zen meditation before deciding to kill a product line appeal only 3 months after market launch

The Phantom 3 and the Inspire are 2 totally different copters, one is for the professional and the other is for the more advanced professional with more needs.
I do think it will continue but in short order will no longer ship with the camera that comes with P3 and instead a more advanced camera. I also think the price will come down significantly but this won't happen until they have supply demand parity. The economies of scale from producing all those components for P3 will bring costs down. In the end it's good, now get us that MFT camera!
I would be happy if they at least give us more ND filter options...I do think it will continue but in short order will no longer ship with the camera that comes with P3 and instead a more advanced camera.

Yes for almost 3 times the price.... it's a totally wrong price range. And now? Will they drop the I1 price.... so all the people like me who invested in a I1 machine will feel like a fool only 2/3 months after their investment? DJI does not keep in mind that people invest their money and their investment should keep the value at least for 6/9 months....
I agree with Tahoejmfc saying the two quads are two different platforms for different jobs. the Phantom always was some kind of "toy" and never a professional tool like the I1 and I think with the "H" form which is the best construction form. the I1 will stay on top notch. 4k or not on the P3 it will not be as stable or versatile as the I1. it is better looking and looking at the functionality is also better as in stability and speed which makes it essential for many jobs like chase or adverts.
I think DJI is a company not a charity support organisation and their aim is to make money. they should have a look at us sure I agree in that but I do not think they would be so ruthless to have us spend 3+K and then come out with something that seems the same.. it is NOT. you do not have 360° round view, you do not have the bad *** stability (I think) and you definitely you do not have the speed with a Phantom... and the modular design from the I1 is not a coincident... it purpose... and there will be more and better accessories to the I1 with better camera and upgrades that a P3 will NEVER have only when doing something on it in your garage but not being able like will be into our shop and buy the FPV kit to just plug and play on the I1...
that is my personal opinion and I did not mean to offend anyone. in case I did I do apologize.

p.s.: sorry I had to say something.

I'm happy with my Inspire, no matter what I paid for it 3 months ago. That was then, this is now. If you are not happy, then sell yours and buy the Phantom. There's no need to give yourself ulcers over it. I watched the live event yesterday and personally, I wasn't all that impressed. I'm not saying it's not a technological marvel, its just that I'm happy with what I have.

... but the question is: should you buy an I1 today for 3 times the price of a P3?
That would depend on one's needs. The two aircraft really aren't comparable. The Inspire 1 is head and shoulders above the Phantom 3 in its capabilities and flexibilities.

Are you kidding? What features or capabilities have been removed from the I1? Nonsense. The Phantom (probably) will still tip over on landing. Investment/Value tomorrow? It still does exactly the same thing it did when you bought it. I am looking for more things for it to do in the future.
If I was going to worry about anything, it would be possible newly imposed use restrictions on the technology that would restrict capabilities we already have been using. Rapidly improving, less expensive products are EXPECTED. I can't wait!
