Is it worth the money to buy the current Inspire or is it at that time where I should wait for the newer model? I'm about ready to purchase one, but I am unsure if I should just wait for the next one. I don't want to end up purchasing one and then have a newer model come out within the same year or so. Thoughts?
With the release cycle of the last one there will most likely be a new inspire soon and definitely within the next year. Personally id say buy a phantom 3 standard for 700 and play with that and hone your skills for a couple months then when the new inspire is announced sell the Phantom or keep it as a backup rig and have the inspire as your main rig.
I think on the Inspire Pro is an upgrade to the Phantom 3. The phantom 3 Pro is perfect...except camera could be better ....and the X3 is the same.
Now the X5...that is a different story and I am hesitating everyday :-)
I would like to get another one but not until they have a camera on it that is much better then the X3 that I have. To pay over 2k for a camera that sometimes looks better then my present X3 is crazy and is not going to happen. So its the waiting game or find a new game.
If it was me and it has been, I have both Inspire 1 and the Pro. For now will keep both but may sell the first generation in a few months, I am just a novice and trying to learn how to take good pictures (settings confound me)
