Rich, how is your baby performing after latest FW update? Is she stable in hover? I'm considering purchase of I2, but I need rock-solid bird, wind or not. I'm really not in the mood for another fight.
Matthew.
Hi Matthew,
Okay, I have seen your other post and was afraid to comment. I see so many others complaining about the latest FW. Pretty scary stuff when you are making a living with your gear. There is so many things that can go wrong with our super Hi-tech gear!
After talking with Cougar, which had already updated his I2 and his buddy. They told me it was working great (Solid). Trusting Cougars assessment, I decided to update my I2 too (he knows I like to wait).
I had some trouble at first, but I had not updated my DJI Go 4 App for some time (reasons not discussed here). Of course, I calibrated the IMU and compass plus checked the V sensors. I did not experience any flight issues, some minor camera EV settings and some changes that I missed.
The hover is steady as my Mavic Pro!
My I2 today parked in a low hover, crosswind 6-10mph and didn't budge. I set the remote down and walked over the my aircraft and took some photos while it was in flight). safety first
I flew 2 sets of batteries and everything was working great, even the phantom landing gear messages were gone. Also, no CPU fully loaded messages either. Played around with many of my Cendence camera button settings and Everything is finally working perfectly. Now all I have to do is remember where I put stuff
So as you know, your perception of how a drone is flying seems very subjective depending on your experience. Based on all my drone flying, I am finally very satisfied with my Inspire 2. For the record, I have always liked the way the Inspire fly's, but now you are smiling the whole time.
If you buy the Inspire 2, I certainly hope you get one that works correctly... it's worth it.
PS, had lots of trouble with the DJI props fitting tightly. reported to death! I was hoping the DJI would have come out with a folding design and improved mounting hub. possibly they will on V2 or 3
