New Osmo (Handheld) Now Availible

[Shnooks Nivens]

Hi folks!

Any word on the power plant in this? ( replaceable? )

 

[Shnooks Nivens]

Yes. The battery is a 980 mAh LiPo and has to be removed from the OSMO to plug into the charger.

I will keep on the look out for the availability and cost of the batteries! Thanks for the info Joola.

Whenever I read OSMO, in my head it sounds like:

from what i understand the new camera is not compatible with the inspire 1 but you can use your inspire camera on the osmo. i don't know why the decided to do it this way. also the 120fps in 1080 is referring to slow mo capability I'm trying to find more info on why they haven't offered the osmo without the camera yet but I'm sure thats to come soon

Hey 909, Where did you get the info about the cam on the handheld not being able to be used as a backup on the Inspire 1? I placed an oder today and the main reason for not waiting on the standalone stick part was so I could have the cam as a backup.

There's a hands-on review of the DJI Osmo on the RC Geeks Blog.

i watched a bunch of you tube videos and the video "tested" they said it isn't compatible with the inspire but you can put the inspire camera on the osmo i also called dronefly and they confirmed what the youtube video was saying

I'm trying to find the video that says its not compatible I've watched so many videos yesterday lol

Ok, I have just been informed by my source that the OSMO camera WILL NOT be compatible with the i1. 20 hours ago it was but at the last minute they have decided to firmware lock it.

The i1X3 is still compatible with the OSMO after the new firmware upgrade.

 

[inspire909]

I think they did that because the lens in the osmo is made for close proximity and the i1 lens is a wide angle lens

 

[00Tj]

No, they did it because they are greedy. Seriously. And that's not entirely true. The focal point of the X3 is set to infinity whereas the OSMO is set to 1 meter plus. It just means things really close are sharper but long distance is still the same.

 

[00Tj]

If anything the OSMO X3 would be much better on the i1.

bitches. why not make it compatible???

By the time this thread reaches five pages the OSMO will have a solar power source and be capable of levitation with follow-me mode....

 

[00Tj]

As I said, greed. My source says the pre production sample WAS compatible. But literally 20 hours ago they updated the firmware on them so they aren't.

 

[inspire909]

you would think dji would throw us a bone for buying one of the most expensive quads on the market but nooooooo lets firmware lock it so they can't use it on there $3,000 product

Also, I'm not sure if I am allowed to say this..

If you don't know then you probably aren't... and what you say suddenly sounds a lot like BS.

Ok, you don't have to believe a word I say?
