Would someone in the know confirm latest I1 pro on sale has the same beefed up motors as I1 v2? Or DJI is still selling superceded motors on their I1 pro/raw.

DTK, current I1 pro has the same motors as  I1 v2.0. I am willing to help if you still have doubt about this question.

But the original I1 pro has the same motor as v1. How people identify I1 Pro with v1 or v2 motor?

Hi DTK,

I don't understand your concern. DJI had no stock of Inspire 1 Pro since DJI's releasing of Inspire 2.

AFAIK, DJI announced on 2 Nov 2015 the Inspire 1 Product Change Notice introducing the new 3510H motors (420kv) which replaced the 3510 motors (350kv) of the Inspire 1. Inspire 1 with the 3510H motors were later known to be Inspire 1 V2. This was the itinerary of the motors with Inspire 1.

BUT, the itinerary of the motors with Inspire 1 Pro was different. DJI announced the Zenmuse X5 (http://www.dji.com/newsroom/news/dji-releases-four-new-groundbreaking-products) on 11 Sep 2015 and released the Inspire 1 Pro in Oct 2015. New 3510H motors were in fact adopted in all Inspire 1 Pro since the 1st batch of the Inspire 1 Pro. My Inspire 1 Pro was purchased in Oct 2015 and had already been equipped with the 3510H (420kv) motors.

I still remember a lot of Inspire 1 owners back then complained about DJI's equipping the Inspire 1 Pro with more powerful new motors, which appeared to those loyal Inspire 1 owners as a signal from DJI that their Inspire 1 with 3510 (350kv) motors might not be powerful enough to take the heavier X5. This feeling was against their expectation when they bought their Inspire 1 in early 2015 when DJI marketed the Inspire 1 with interchangeable gimbals that would fit a system of different aerial gimbals / cameras being developed by DJI back then. They never expected the need of airframe upgrading to cope with different gimbals / cameras of the same system.

If you were referring "latest Inspire 1 Pro on sale" in your post to a third party's sale of Inspire 1 Pro, then you will have to make sure whether that particular Inspire 1 Pro is in fact not an Inspire 1 version 1 equipped with a separately purchased Zenmuse X5. You need to ascertain it by comparing the photos of the two versions of motors I pointed out above before you decided to purchase.

Hope this help.

I believe the V2 motors have "3510H" clearly written on the top whereas the V1 do not.

Thanks Henry. There is a lot of I1 Pro on sale as brand new and used. And I would prefer pro that has the same power as the V2 since V1 is pretty underpower on a heavier X5 gig. Even brand new one, I mean from reseller, you can't really tell which motors you are getting.

As Mark said, the description "3510H" on top of the motors is what you should look for to ascertain the more powerful 3510H (420kv) motors.

"3510H" on top, no other description on vertical side of motor

I believe the V2 has beefier ESC's too. Basicly, the I1 Pro IS a V2 but if you're purchasing second hand it's possible you could find an I1 V1 with an X5 and 3510hH motors that would look like a V2 but only has V1 ESC's.
Does any of that make sense?

Hi Donnie,

Why you are not keeping yours? It is an excellent camera for still photography, and it is a decent video camera if you don't mind the limited bitrate.

I know you have an X5R, but it is a completely different class of camera than the X5. If I were you, I would keep both.

I just do not use it enough to justify keeping it .  I thought if I can make a sale on it I would .

Hope you are well my friend
