+PardonMeIFarted Haha, thanks!! I figured I'd get a video out on this bad boy as soon as it arrived :)

[@thrivingone]

[@marijnpelsma423]

I see that you bought it! I looks great, and it was a very good unboxing, Well done!

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Marijn Pelsma Thanks very much!!

[@Bobster986]

There use to be a great car company called Pontiac, their slogan was "We Build Excitement". Since they are no longer around, I think DJI should adopt it. ;-) LOL

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Bobster986 Maybe so! lol :)

[@DaveMerc]

Hello, saw you at the store yesterday. Great video! I am sure it will be popular with the Inspire users. Dave

[@AerialAutomotive]

+dmerc00 Hey!! It was nice meeting you. Looking forward to that indoor fly-in! :)

[@DaveMerc]

+DroneDude Sounds great, will be looking for you! Mike will be there too.

[@AerialAutomotive]

***** Awesome!

[@blackmennewstyle]

Again a fantastic unboxing :) Pretty cool camera! Too bad you can only apply it to the Inspire 1. DJI should release a version you can put on any kind of multirotors like they did with the old zenmuse gimbal series but i doubt they will do it actually. Thanks for sharing and happy midweek to you :)

[@AerialAutomotive]

+ABMNS PRODUCTION Agree! That would be really cool. Thanks so much!!

[@samsonnodelilah5459]

+DroneDude r we able to attach those x5 on the osmo?…tanx.

[@AerialAutomotive]

Lyanna zul You will, however a special mount will be required to mount it. DJI has not released any information on the mount yet.

[@charlesgrosset9426]

Great video, love the attention to detail. How did you create the intro and outro? what programs, ect?

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Charles Grosset Thank you!! The Intro was actually created by a friend who used an Adobe After Effects plug in. I edit all of my videos with Final Cut Pro though :)

[@gamerpete5267]

Awesome! Thanks for the vid

[@DutchRC]

A propper (looking) camera this time :) Do you know who makes the cam, and what sensor-size it uses (probably the biggest upgrade)

[@AerialAutomotive]

+DutchRC ADVENTURES Indeed :) It's a Micro 4/3 Sony sensor

[@DutchRC]

Cool :) And a f1.7 prime on it I think?

[@AerialAutomotive]

+DutchRC ADVENTURES yes sir :)

[@DutchRC]

+DroneDude I never really know how that f1.7 in micro 4/3 translates to full frame lenses.. But f1.7 seems better then just 'nice'.. Can you use lenses from other manufacturers?

[@AerialAutomotive]

Yes! I believe Olympus and Some other company make a few different lenses that work on the Inspire!

[@stevenelliott3444]

As usual I love your videos keep up the good work, do you have drone dude t-shirts?

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Steven Elliott Thank you very much!! And no! But that's actually not a bad idea. I'll let you know if I ever do :)

[@stevenelliott3444]

+DroneDude ok thanks

[@CarlosLopez-fc2qm]

[@AerialAutomotive]

+birds eye media Thanks!! I'm sure I will :)

[@SNYEFILMS]

I love it

[@AerialAutomotive]

+PyroDrone thanks! :D

[@tinab3001]

What are your thoughts on the dji osmo and are you thinking of getting it?

[@AerialAutomotive]

+PardonMeIFarted remember my last video on the FPV quadcopter. I said at the end of the video that I would be reviewing the DJI X5 and other DJI products very soon. ;) ;) ;)

[@tinab3001]

+DroneDude oh well I couldnt finish the video I will watch now

[@AerialAutomotive]

PardonMeIFarted haha, no worries mate!

[@CaptainRoar]

+DroneDude How did it go with the case, do the inspire fit in it with the leg extension?

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Captain R The Inspire with the leg extensions does not fit in the standard V1 case. Im not sure if they've made changes to the V2 or Pro cases

[@codrone3967]

good work bruh

[@AerialAutomotive]

+CODRONE Thanks much!!

[@Lenny0612]

After you install the Vibration Absorbing Board does it still fit in the factory case?

[@AerialAutomotive]

+LENNY GARCIA Yes

[@hughheli]

Thanks for info, so how many min can it fly now with x5 on inspire? I like to upgrade my but don't know how much fly times would you tell me more about it Thanks again

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Hugh Wong The Inspire with the X5 gets about 15min of flight time with the X5 in it with the TB48 battery.

[@hughheli]

Hi can u tell me about the x 5 u put on inspire1? How they flight Thanks

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Hugh Wong It performs well, the Inspire's battery life is reduced though.

[@hughheli]

Do u have any problems with z5 camera on inspire1 ? When u flight? Thanks

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Hugh Wong Nope, no problems at all.

[@WoodysDronography]

is there something like this for the phantom 3 advanced?

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Woody's Dronography Unfortunately no, the only camera add ons for the Phantom series are lends filters

[@WoodysDronography]

+DroneDude dang. yeah I ordered the filters for cinematic style recording, but I realized the limitations of the phantom gimbal and it would be nice to have a better control over field of view.

[@AerialAutomotive]

Woody's Dronography Yeah, that would be nice. The Inspire definitely offers more verticality when it comes to filming.

[@WoodysDronography]

+DroneDude definitely. you get what you pay for, but that price tag is hard to swallow. lol

[@AerialAutomotive]

Woody's Dronography very true

[@MiamiJato]

is that inspire 1 v2?......

[@AerialAutomotive]

+MiamiJato Nope! This is actually the Inspire 1 A model (the first type produced by DJI)

[@hughheli]

S

[@saleemkhutaba7267]

dude this cam not for hobby !

[@AerialAutomotive]

+Saleem Khutaba Haha! I know

[@skydronetechnologies2589]

A $2200 camera rig on a consumer grade quad? DJI is gonna make a killing from repairing crashed copters and cameras...

[@AerialAutomotive]

+SkyDrone Technologies I hope the people flying these cameras have a little more experience than the average consumer.

[@skydronetechnologies2589]

+DroneDude You're missing the point... It's a high dollar camera rig on a quad... if an ESC or motor goes out, it's gonna drop like a rock. DJI should have offered the X5 on a rig with some degree of redundancy... preferably an octocopter or at least a hex. They're marketing it as a pro grade camera, which it is, but mounting it on a hobby grade copter. Nice review otherwise...

[@AerialAutomotive]

SkyDrone Technologies I agree that it would have been nice to offer the X5 on drones such as the S900 or above. I think it will be compatible with the Matrice 100.

[@skydronetechnologies2589]

+DroneDude Matrice is a quad also... Don't mean to beat a dead horse, but anyone serious about "professional" aerial photography/videography, should fly a platform with some degree of redundancy, i.e. hex, octo or X8, or have a parachute system.

[@AerialAutomotive]

SkyDrone Technologies Just because it's a quad, doesn't mean that it's not up to the job, however again, I do agree that on the professional level something with more motors and batter redundancy is necessary.
