DJI Inspire 1: DJI Inspire 1 Landing gear malfunction

Thu, 14 Jun 2018 03:45:22 -0700

I crashed my inspire 1 and the only problem I am having is that the landing gear will not operate in the full range. I brought it in to a local repair but they say now that it is confused as to when the gear is up or down. So they ordered a new center housing and the assembly is just stuck, a problem with the used parts. Anyone have any advise on this issue?

Many thanks,

Houston

DJI Inspire 1: How much current does the Inspire 1 draw when it's just hovering?

Sun, 16 Jul 2017 06:51:41 -0700

That's basically the question =) we're working on a project to tether the drone and need to pick a power supply that will provide basically the 'average' current that the Drone needs (and take care of spikes using the battery).

Perfect answer to my question would be:

- max amp draw

- amp draw when hovering

- how you know/measured this

Thanks!

DJI Inspire 1: Tree crash with motor destroyed

Mon, 10 Jul 2017 05:02:28 -0700

I took my eye off for a second (my mistake flying in a confined area) and flew into a tree, here are the issues:

one motor completely destroyed (I'll also need new blades)

one leg cambered (structurally fine and internal are fine, it goes up and down no issues)

gimbal attachment broke but the camera is fine

Can this be fixed?

DJI Inspire 1: DJI Inspire 1 Firmware Update Issues

Wed, 08 Feb 2017 21:04:45 -0700

I recently purchased a used DJI Inspire 1. After charging the batteries and remote, I activated the DJI GO app and noticed that there needed to be a FIRMWARE UPDATE. After looking up the firmware on DJI.com, I realized that there were 2 or 3 firmware updates that had not been performed. When I attempted to reformat an SD Card to install a .bin file, I was promoted with "SD CARD FORMAT FAILED". In other words, I believe I need the latest firmware to be able to reformat an SD Card. What should I do? Any suggestions?

Thanks,
