Last night John Liddard brought his new DJI Inspire to the indoor and what an amazing bird this thing is. There is an incredible amount of technology crammed into this new quadcopter that has just come on the market.
1. John flies the quad checking its view through the ipad clamped to the front of the transmitter.
2. John shows me the google earth view he sees on the ipad screen in real time when outdoors (he didn't see this update in the gym as there was no gps signal) Note the square he has drawn on the screen with his finger. The quad will be constrained within this area.
3. the quad in the air with the gear retracted upwards so it gets out of the camera's field of view.
4. the guys last night taking a look.
Look for a more extensive report on John's visit in the march MAAC newsletter.
