The DJI Inspire 1 was a big deal when it came out, offering lots of cool features and the ability to change camera lenses. It's still great, but now there's the Inspire 2.

The new Inspire 2 looks similar but has many upgrades. It's better at avoiding obstacles and comes with a new camera, the X5S. It also has two batteries for longer flights.

While other drone companies have improved, the Inspire 2 stands out as DJI's top professional drone, but it's pricier than their other models.

DJI Inspire 2: Design

If you've seen the DJI Inspire 1, the Inspire 2 will look familiar. It keeps the same design with four propellers and strong carbon fiber arms. But there are some changes: it's now made of magnesium aluminum composite instead of white plastic, and it has a new front-facing FPV camera and obstacle-avoidance system. Plus, it has two batteries for longer flight time. 

The Inspire 2 doesn't come with a camera, but you can choose one from DJI's Zenmuse cameras. You can swap out the camera to fit your needs, which is great for professional photographers and video makers who want full control over their shots.

DJI Inspire 2: Build and Handling

The Inspire 2 is tougher than its predecessor, with an aluminum shell and carbon fiber arms that protect it from damage. It has safety features like an FPV camera and obstacle-avoidance system to prevent crashes. It's also agile and responsive, even in wind.

DJI Inspire 2: Performance

Just like the Inspire 1, the Inspire 2 is controlled with a remote that connects to the drone using strong antennas. You need to connect your smartphone to the remote and download the DJI GO 4 app. In the app, you can calibrate the camera, turn on beginner mode, and use automated flight modes like Spotlight Pro, which tracks moving objects accurately.

Spotlight Pro is a unique feature that sticks to moving objects, capturing great footage without needing a second camera operator. You can also control the drone with one remote while another controls the camera.

The Inspire 2 has a dual-battery setup that gives you about 25 minutes of flying time, which can vary depending on how you use it. You can charge both batteries at once with the included charger, which has four slots for extra batteries.

DJI Inspire 2: Video and Photo Capture

DJI's Zenmuse cameras, like the X5S, are made to work perfectly with the Inspire 2 drone. The X5S has a larger sensor than earlier models, capturing more detail and vibrant colors. It's like having a top-notch camera in the sky, allowing you to take stunning photos.

For videos, pairing the Inspire 2 with the X5S creates a setup that pros would envy. While other drones offer 4K video, this one goes further with 5.2K recording at 30 frames per second. It also does 4K at 60 frames per second, and you can even scale down to 720p, though with such amazing quality, why would you?

DJI Inspire 2: Price 

In the UAE, the base model of the DJI Inspire 2 starts at approximately AED 12,000. But if you add the latest Zenmuse X5S camera, the price can go up, depending on where you buy it and what else is included. You can buy the Inspire 2 directly from DJI or from various retailers online or in stores.
