And now EVERYBODY knows what a "head conversion" is.

Have you explored the flight curves of heavier batteries and diminishing returns? I have found that curve to be very steep with the Inspire 1 and pretty much all DJI offerings. The Inspire 1 was never designed as a heavy lifter and barely qualifies as a medium lifter. The Multistar 10A 10C battery weighs almost 1.8 lbs. That's almost double the weight of an X5 camera and .4 lbs. heavier than the stock battery. And if you've ever flown your Inspire 1 with an X5 vs an X3, you know that a mere 250g difference in weight makes a pretty profound difference in handling and flight performance.

The Inspire 1 Pro has a payload capacity of 1.4 lbs, which your new battery exceeds by .4 lbs. This doesn't count the weight of the cameras. It will be interesting to see how much more flight time you get. It will be even more interesting to see if the thing even gets off the ground with an X5 camera.

@Millsy, I would consider it a personal favor if you would post your results and try to reply in semi-complete sentences. Proof-reading is your friend.

Any bets on whether or not this things gets off the ground?
