R&L, thank you for your feedback. Yes, I did see a few posts on that as well. I am really wanting the X5 but I feel the weight will significantly reduce my air time and the image quality vs weight/air time trade off may not be worth it.
If you or anyone else in here has any experience on the X3 to X5 upgrade I would like to hear it. I do this professionally so I am looking to up my game but not if it is not significant difference. hate to think I have to go to the inspire 2 to see a big difference but then again, there are a few more advantages to that upgrade.
I had the original inspire v1, I bought the x5 upgrade kit with the x5 mount and the landing gear risers. The kit is very easy to install, I also owned the inspire 1 Pro with the x5 camera and used the x5 camera on both inspire versions with great results. The inspire v1 did a great job carrying the heavier x5. With the x3 camera on both versions I would get around 18 minutes flight time, with the x5 camera on both version I would get around 13 minutes flight time.my recommendation to you is to buy the x5 upgrade kit and the x5 camera for your inspire v1 ... you can look on eBay for a used x5, I’ve seen them go for around the same price as the z3..... |
