What about this one but only 1 battery ? :pensive:

!?

Yeah, and I havenā€™t got time for sellers like that either.

Unrealā€¦

That 1 battery is only a TB47 too, rather than the higher capacity TB48. This might be the problem Mark mateā€¦ batteriesā€¦ New batteries are getting quite rare in the UK by the looks of things. And theyā€™re not cheap (when new).

Only one controller in that package too.

But then again, youā€™re getting the X5 in this deal, which is worth more than an Inspire airframe alone these days :slight_smile:

Pins on the gimbal mount are decent too (Iā€™ve seen some right fucked up ones):

Seller has solid feedback too, on some very expensive items that heā€™s sold (there are many, many, Ā£1000+ items sold in his history). This seems to be the only drone sold though. Anyway, Iā€™d have no qualms over the seller, I guess the question here is, how much more will you need to spend to buy a few more batteries?

Thanks @PingSpike yes Checked batteries out and with about 15 mins flight time with X5 going to need a few is it really worth the spend hmmmm thinking, but many thanks for the info :+1:

This one might be worth keeping an eye on @Mungmeister

Title isnā€™t correct though, itā€™s not a Pro if heā€™s only got the X3 camera for it.

Ok thanks @PingSpike will check it out have a great Xmas and New Year

@PingSpike. Iā€™m currently bidding on the one you sent me as 2 controllers and sounds really good but whatā€™s your thoughts on this and maybe purchase another controller + batteries, your feedback is much appreciated

I guess the question is, how often will you fly where you have the need for someone else to control the camera while you control the drone?

Sure, itā€™s a great feature, but in reality? Unless youā€™re doing commercial shoots / inspections there is probably very little reason to have two controllers as a hobbyist.

Ā£650 is a good price - youā€™re getting helluva lot of kit for the money. Heā€™s open to offers, Iā€™d offer him Ā£600 quid cash and say you can collect it tomorrow, nice Christmas bonus for him :slight_smile:

(or Ā£700 if he throws in the TB48 he is also selling)

No Zenmuse X5 camera though, is this a deal breaker?

Hi @PingSpike would not know how difficult it is to operate camera and drone to be honest, but I will be doing some commercial shoots next year hopefully, but problem is I only have Mavic Zoom in operations manual, itā€™s getting a good camera op too , there is a lot to think about, was thinking of Phantom 4 Pro, what is your take on them

On your own, much like the Mavic, just set the camera to point forwards and simply point the drone in the direction you want to film. And/or drag your finger across the screen in the app to move the camera on its own.

Canā€™t advise re P4 Iā€™ve never seen one in the flesh mate :slight_smile:

Thanks again @PingSpike always helpful just going to sit tight and hope :+1:

I would go for the Phantom 4 Pro over the Inspire 1 unless you go for the X5, Longer flight time, easier to transport, parts are easier to obtain etc.
The inspire still looks awesome and is a different machine to fly but the batteries are getting harder to find as well as parts and also youā€™ll get half the flight time on one battery.

But saying that I could probably sell you an Inspire also :rofl:

Just missed it Ā£820 ffs :pensive:

Donā€™t worry too much about that one Mark because despite the seller listing it as a PROā€¦

:blush:

Yeh remember you saying cheers

Hey Mungmeister - I know this post is old, but I have an Inspire 1 fitting your specifications - only catch is, itā€™s my only drone and Iā€™m trying to break into the hobby and even commercial side of UAS ops! Sorry about that. However, the X5 is a bit beyond my price point as a beginner, and I could maybe do with a downgrade.

Would you be interested in an X5? PM me for more info, as I think my account is too junior to be selling on the ā€˜for saleā€™ subforum.

Could also sweeten the deal with a controller, a plethora of ND filters, and maybe a TB47 if itā€™s of any interest still.

Hi @ImperiumAssertor no requirement for it now sorry
