INSPIRE 1 Remote Controller
The Inspire 1 is a professional aerial filmmaking and photography platform that is ready to fly right out of the box. Featuring
an onboard camera equipped with a 20mm lens and 3-axis stabilized gimbal, it shoots sharp 12mp stills and stable video at
up to 4K. Its retractable landing gear pulls up out of view, giving the camera an unobstructed 360 degree view of the world
below.
An advanced flight controller makes the Inspire 1 stable, safe and easy to fly indoors or out. The brand new Vision
Positioning System gives it the power to hover in position at low altitudes even without GPS. Like all DJI flight controllers,
it is also able to return home if remote controller signal is lost or if the low battery warning is triggered.
The Inspire 1 boasts a maximum flight speed 22m/s* and a maximum flight time of 18 minutes* using one fully charged
4500mAh Intelligent Flight Battery.

real time HD. The app also allows you to change camera settings and activate Master/Slave mode so that one person can
fly while other controls the gimbal independently. The master and slave controllers communicate using a 5.8Ghz wireless
signal, and have a communication range with each other of up to 50 meters.The controller’s LiPo battery has a maximum
run time of approximately four hours and can be charged by plugging directly into the controller.
