+sanshinron I'm not here to argue with you....or anyone else for that matter. We filmed this episode at the end of our week long road trip.... and I was admittedly trying anything at that point just to get it to turn on because it gave me and everyone else on the crew trouble the entire week. When we were in California with the guys from DJI, they confirmed that ours was broken…they literally tried it standing right in front of us. What more do you want me to say?

Great video guys! Lot's of comments here about it not being worth $3,000. Having built and owned a handful of large, SLR carrying rigs. With all of the gimbals, chargers, flight controllers, frames, motors, Spektrum, Futaba, Taranis, systems I've owned, and mostly still own.. plus the cameras (Panasonic GH series stuff and GoPros). I know the real costs of any given rig I've had with all associated parts. $3k, and I don't have to do anything but fly and film? I'm sold. This is a time saver for me.

MaydayRC MaydayRC is correct also. In addition to that. DJI just bricked all DJI drones in Washington DC through a firmware update. While it makes some sense since drones are outlawed in DC, I wouldn't want mine bricked if states started all outlawing drones. Or if a paticular person had a drone and the government asked DJI to brick a specific persons drone, that is not a far fetched possibility. The threat of having your drone disabled really lessens the value even if the disabling does make sense for some reason.

Very interesting episode. It's amazing how many comments talk about the price of this unit most of the comments are negative! Eric mentioned he had more expensive multi rotors, Around the $10,000 mark, these would obviously be for caring the red camera or similar types of professional filming devices. The fact that this unit includes a 4K camera even though it doesn't have anything more than 60 frames per secondall the sensor technology and everything that goes into this, it is in my opinion worth every single penny. I hope flitetest follows through with the idea of building the same unit for cheaper I think then people will realize the value of this product as I doubt it can be done, I doubt it very much! But I would love to see it happen:-) Oh, and if I may ask you to spend more money and get the second transmitter so you can show us how well it works with one guy on camera and one guy I'm flying. As for the aerial photography suggestion I for one would love to see more information on that.

You could just use trainer mode on a transmitter with a lot of channels to allow a second system control a few of them. But yes, all the other stuff, especially the live HD view and sensors like the flow camera are not really standard in DIY builds. They probably will become that, but until then the Inspire has its price segment.
@stewjw
@stewjw 9 жыл бұрын
I hated it because as mentioned you can build your own to get similar footage at a much lower price without too much difficulty. But you have to give DJI credit its a very nice, original design and they've incorporated all the latest sensor technology. It just lacks a lidar. But that lockdown software issue would turn me off right from the start. The design is also very closed by that I mean its very difficult to modify or upgrade so you are tied into the configuration for the life of the aircraft. Also if I crashed it at this price point I'd be suicidal its way above what I could sensibly afford so flying it would be a very nerve wracking experience.

I think this is one of the best "real world" reviews that I have seen. It shows what one would go through if they were to buy this and fly out of the box. It gives a good view of what an amateur film maker would go through and shows the value of the quad since we are not all out there to make the next big movie.

The start up sequence is press then press and hold for 3 seconds for both controller and battery. And as to the part were you got hit, I had a bird attack and take out half of an entire prop and it still flew fine, a little jerky wobble but the fact it flew with half a prop until i landed made me amazed. I am loving this platform for aerial footage and been applying it more and more at work.

Agreed, most people will buy this as an investment of some sort and a small demographic will buy it as a "toy". It makes more sense for prosumers but it's on out of the question for a hobbiest. Especially considering the cost of other expensive "toys" (golf, motorcycles, ATVs, racing, cycling etc)

I didt see it from that angle....thats a good point, come to think of it...that seems to be the idea, building and marketing one that an in between model....I do have to agree with Josh on his projected opinion about not likeing that "firmware lockout" it has...I dont like that either...and looking foreward to the idea of developing a scratch model from this design...thats what we love to do when we design our own...we share the ideas. I do have to add, I have respect for them to actually purchase one, to see hands on....the pilot that flew this has some doors open that I only dream to have....I cant even get my aerial business off the ground here...so in the mean time, I shoot my videos and keep the never ending fun of adding new tech to these and upgrading and experimenting....mine are all solid, and well....as we know cheaper than this one and does the same thing....to put the price in another aspect, we all know begginers just want to get up there in the air..thats cool. If you do your research and thread observations you dont have to pay this much to get up in the air....things that ive seen and we all know...when ya buy something thtats allready built for you "turn key"...its gonna cost significantly more that the self design and build

Would be awesome to get a video on the initial setup and config of the camera to help those people just starting out. I like the emphasis flite test put on needing to learn how to fly and not solely relying on the autonomous features, which I feel has caused a lot of crashes due to inexperience behind the sticks.

Yes, it could be Parrot was on the right track technologically but the corners they cut on price doomed the product to its ultimate performance. I suspect an 8-bit processor doesn't have the power to poll and analyze the data from that many sensors fast enough to make timely flight responses. Maybe a naze32 could do it though.

@aroundtheworld9215
@aroundtheworld9215 8 жыл бұрын
Dash Melrose It really depends on what you are looking for. TL;DR at the bottom. If we take a look at the website, it tells us what some of the most obvious differences are: "The Mavic is smaller, lighter, and easier to carry with you thanks to its foldable design. Its new OcuSync transmission system has a longer transmission range and 1080p resolution. Due to its larger size, the Phantom 4 has a higher maximum speed and can withstand stronger winds." With that stated, let's take a look at the main things with more detail: *Pros of Mavic:* Obviously smaller, both the controller and the drone itself. Camera can be nicely manually focused on objects as close as 0.5 meters. Higher range. The FlightAutonomy feature was slightly improved (FlightAutonomy = avoiding hitting an object by either stopping or going around it; most users use it along with the "Follow me" feature.) Cheaper than the Phantom 4. The lower FOV might make the shots look more professional at times. (but the lower Fov might also be considered a con) Can fit through smaller spaces and can overall be maneuvered more easily for obvious reasons. *Cons of Mavic:* A 5-10% [percentage invented; could be more, could be less] worse camera all around. (Not a huge deal but is considerable if you want to squeeze out as much quality as you can) *Disclaimer for camera*: After seeing some footage from both drones, and being able to download raw files from people that have gotten the drone early, I've come to the conclusion that you can add very, *very* simple filters on the camera and get extremely similar results on the Mavic. (Although I still prefer the phantom 4 camera a bit more, just feels a bit more solid as an overall package; contrast, colors, low-light conditions and sharpness.) A bit slower due to smaller design. Camera is more exposed to hits if you have some sort of frontal crash. Less accessories, due to the obvious release date differences between the two. Controller's holder does not support bigger screens such as tablets or bigger ipads but can still be connected... just... not being held by the controller itself. Minor detail but worth mentioning. TL;DR: The mavic is smaller, camera is almost the same (some shots look better on the mavic and some look better on the phantom), it's cheaper, more range, and Obstacle Avoidance is better. If you don't care about the size, and you don't travel much, the Phantom might be better for you. I'm personally getting the Mavic, hands down, because everything is pretty much the same or better [camera and speeds are debatable] and I don't have to go through the hassle of transporting something the same size as my iPad and laptop. Conclusion: I recommend the Mavic.

I'd probably go P4 - it all just depends on when and where you want to fly it. You can get a backpack for the P4 (like I have with my P3) and you can take it anywhere, really. But if you want to lose a bit of quality for ultra-portability, choose the Mavic. P.S. aren't you like 11 years old? lol

This is why I love Flite Test, the rep from the company wanted to 'demo' the machine (aka, biased review) but these guys said no, bought their own Inspire model, and tested it for us, the consumers. I doubt I'll ever drop $3000 on one machine, but the inspire is one step towards a new generation of UAV's and multirotor camera bases.

Was that some Steeler love I saw? Well, I have not been very much for this inspire release, but if the man with the black and gold cap with skills like that says it's okay- I have to respect that. I sure as hell respect Josh's little interjections there about the shut down- what a fine job of advocating a sticky point that we all find in poor taste. Very well expressed.

Eric Monroe I am stoked to have a glimmer of hope that Flitetest and you may be offering some AP tips- I am really interested in learning how to frame shots and develop good composition skills- the piloting skills come with tons of practice, which I do, but if that practice is not focused, then I am not practicing but just flying around waiting for something to happen. Crossing my fingers for lots more AP tutorials and tips!

To the guys at Flite Test...we love the work you do. We focus on providing multirotor service support and education so our customers understand how we repaired their systems, we even send out picture disks and custom pdf manuals specific to each customers repair. Our favorite part of this episode was both your guys mention of not suggesting to new pilots to go out and buy this unit as marketing and the false "comfort" zone provided by GPS and other Autonomous flight modes. We agree a hundred percent that development of pilot skill should first and foremost. Thanks for that and thanks for inspiring us. we love all you do, and hope you don't hate on us for our name when we like your photo's and posts of FB. There's carporn, and gunporn, As a company that supports custom builds and builders and promotes the building of multirotor over buying, some of the machines the talented people out there such as yourselves can create by by hand are such works of art to us..we could only think of one thing to call it. Thanks so much for what you do and hope to see you guys someday soon.

A really natural review A+ people spend all there time trying to bag the reviews but for 3k its great value for inspire one and since i integrated the phantom into my video's my business doubled and now i am waiting on the inspire to be delivered and bet it will do nothing but help my business, i didn't buy a 10k drone that can be replaced by a cheaper model.haters normally are either jealous they can't afford it or get caught up in tech jargon even thou they have never flown one.

I was really surprised the first time I flew the DJI inspire I was surprised how stable it was. If you ever get lost just take your hands off the controls it will just stay in the same place. I do wish is was a little bit smaller. It is hard to keep the drone conceal before flight. This drone draws a big crowd for sure.

Thank you for the video guys. Have a couple quick comments, Curious if his connectivity had any problems during flight with the RC, his antennas were folded over on many shots i saw. Also the struggling with turning on both RC and inspire, to turn most DJI products on, it's tap once, wait a split moment then hold down the button for 2 seconds as they mention in the manual. Thats what I believe turns them all on never fail. the double tapping he did won't work unless he would have held down a little longer on that second tap. Appreciate the video though, really cool to see what people are doing with it. Cheers and friendly skies

A few comments from my personal experience with Inspire 1 so far: - firmware upgrade was a mess as compared to Phantom 2 Vision + as it took a long time, was not able to have it done with the application connected so no progress information and it did not give any sound when finished as the tutorial and manuals are saying; I had to try the procedure at least 3 times because the first tries I left the upgrade running for over 45 minutes (manual says aprox 25 minutes procedure) and when checking the txt file for the result was saying that procedure was canceled; not sure what caused this (it could be that the Android app was not the latest version initially) but I would prefer to have the possibility to upgrade the software by connection to a PC. - I have done the remote, IMU and compass calibrations several times just to make sure I get the best precision during flight; the software tells me that everything is Normal but looking at the real time sensor readings I think that my compass reading are too high (X: ~220 Y: ~1100 Z: ~850) and also the Accelerometer's Z value is averaging -0.99 which I don't know if is correct; during the 4-5 flights I had so far, I felt no problem except when flying top speed above a body of water, when I am pretty sure the aircraft was slowly loosing altitude (it may be due to the influence of the vision+sonar sensor over the other sensors readings). - besides the dial use when camera tilt / pan is needed, there is another way to change camera angle in any direction and I find it extremely useful; simply touch the camera screen in the Android application and the camera will start panning in that direction; the closer you place your finger to the center of the screen, the slower the pan will be, while the further you move your finger from the center will pan faster in that direction; it is very smooth and extremely useful method of panning your camera; another good thing to know is that the buttons on the back side of the remote are programmable and you can choose one of them to toggle between Gimbal Yaw / Pitch, thus using the camera dial to either tilt or pan the camera. - turning on / off the remote or flight battery is trivial and I disagree with the comments in this video; the "trick" is to press the button shortly and as soon as the lights come on, press again and keep the button pressed until you see the lights go increasingly like when they are charging. Hope my remarks help other owners out there. Best regards and safe flying, Bogdan

Love the diy project, looking forward to it. One thing I'm really interested in knowing is if the whole moving the arms + motors vs retractable gear is really the way to go, or if it's just a "look cool" gimmick that is just extra weight if you are just looking for performance and not looks.
