Did they offer any specs?
Whats wrong with the camera we have now?
Several companies are already selling IR Inspire cameras. http://www.uavdirect.com/Harvest-IR-mapping-System-p/hi1.htm and http://aerialmediapros.com/store/agriculture-ndvi-ndvi-camerasA large sensor for stills (16MB) and optical zoom for detailed inspection work would not go amiss. Near IR and thermal camera alternative would be a great bonus.
Thank you for the information. I have already emailed both companies.Several companies are already selling IR Inspire cameras. http://www.uavdirect.com/Harvest-IR-mapping-System-p/hi1.htm and http://aerialmediapros.com/store/agriculture-ndvi-ndvi-cameras
i'll take the side of whats wrong with the camera it comes with? there are more features on the camera that 90% of all I1 owners will never use, 5% will tinker with and another 5% that actually know what their doing. maybe compared to a 5000 dollar DSLR camera slung underneath a octo-copter most people watching your youtube channel wont notice a difference.
maybe if it's a cheaper substitute then the 600 dollar DJI gimbal or has a zoom capability then you might have something there but other then that whats the need?
the first link looks like a company that just has some mapping software that uses the original camera.Several companies are already selling IR Inspire cameras. http://www.uavdirect.com/Harvest-IR-mapping-System-p/hi1.htm and http://aerialmediapros.com/store/agriculture-ndvi-ndvi-cameras

the second.. 1200 dollar gimbal camera and they don't really describe what you get for that extra 600 dollars. does it spin 1080 horizontally and 720 vertically and have a 50x zoom on it?
in my eyes i see it like crashing 2 inspires at the same time. 1200 aircraft 1200 dollar camera yeehawww, NOT.
As far as I know they are both modified Inspire cameras to do NDVI. UAV Direct I know will modify your own camera as well.the first link looks like a company that just has some mapping software that uses the original camera.

Asking an awful lot of a little ball cam on a 2900 drone. If I need higher quality I will stap on a Red Epic On my Octo. Then everybody happy!
I find it surprising that so many people here are opposed to a new camera offering for the inspire. Frankly I don't think the camera it currently has is all that great. A significantly improved camera option on a bird as advanced at the inspire would really push it into a whole new realm for professional aerial photographers and videographers who don't want to fly a 20k red camera. Having a high end camera option available will only increase the value of the inspire 1 and couldn't hurt it in any way. If you don't want it then don't buy it. Why discourage options and innovation?
