this is just a guess on my part but following other manufacturers serial numbers. this was manufactured in april 2013 unit #886. just a guess. my guess is the numbers 13040886, 13 being the year, 04 being the month, 0886 being the specific unit.
The Inspire series was first introduced on Nov 13th, 2014 - (Wikipedia).
While not consistent across every DJI model, a group over on MavicPilots forum has decoded the general DJI serial numbering methodology (DJI Serial Decoder Thread).
Using the information in this thread, there was a very good web decoder and even an Android App.
The web decoder was recently shutdown but a simpler version was re-opened at DJI Serial Decoder.
The new decoder does not include all of the model designations that the original had, but most DJI serials follow this numbering scheme and do show the correct manufacture date...
It's been guessed that the Inspire 1 serials beginning W1 were built as v1 aircraft and may have been upgraded, while W2 serials were built as version 2.
