Inspire 3

Description

The Inspire 3 by DJI is a pro-rated drone intended for performance and cinematography types of flights. Powerful maneuverability delivers responsive, accurate control and an extended flight time of up to 28 minutes.

Integrated high-precision RTK positioning technology enables centimeter-level accuracy. Compared with traditional meter-level positioning supported by Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), RTK not only makes flying more stable, but also makes flight-route planning more accurate, significantly improving creative efficiency. Front and rear stacked ceramic antenna increases safety by enabling anti-magnetic interference capabilities.

AVOIDANCE SYSTEM
Equipped with nine sensors, Inspire 3 has a robust omnidirectional detection system capable of detecting obstacles in all directions and ensuring optimal protection in flight (The obstacle detection feature is disabled when the landing gear is extended or retracted. When the landing gear is lowered, you have a blind spot of approximately 20 at the front left and front right ends of the aircraft to avoid obstacles.)

For the first time, a fisheye camera has been added to each of the four landing arms. This all-new design prevents obstruction of the aerial platform when the landing gear is raised and detects horizontal obstacles when it is lowered.

OBSTACLE DETECTION IS CUSTOMIZABLE!
The Inspire 3 has a new customizable feature for increased flight safety and creative freedom. Horizontal, upward and downward obstacle detection can be independently turned on or off, and an obstacle alert range can be manually set to suit different scenarios (Custom braking range for obstacle avoidance: 2 to 10 m horizontally, 1 to 3 m upward and 1 m downward. Customized warning range for obstacle detection: 2.1 to 30 m horizontally, 1.1 to 10 m up and 1.1 to 10 m down).

If the active avoidance feature is disabled, the user can still view the distance to an obstacle in real time on the navigation screen and receive an audible alert when approaching an obstacle without the aircraft’s automatic avoidance assistance. This feature opens up new possibilities for professional flight crews who want to use a more complex camera language.

ULTRA-WIDE FPV CAMERA ON THE NOSE
Inspire 3 features a new 1/1.8-inch sensor FPV camera with a pixel size of 3 m, an ultra-wide DFOV of 161 and live streaming capability up to 1080p/60 fps. Also, compared to its predecessor, its DFOV is approximately doubled. This FPV camera offers the most impressive light detection capability, allowing pilots to observe their surroundings vividly and clearly, even at night, for better flight safety.

DUAL FLIGHT CONTROLS
Compared to its predecessor, the Inspire 3’s dual control experience has been significantly improved. Two radio controls can receive live feeds and control the drone independently, allowing the pilot and the pod operator to occupy different positions on the platform. This evolution breaks with the limits of the Inspire 2 model, characterized by the coupling of the primary and secondary control links.

If the pilot loses the aircraft’s signal, the pod operator is now able to take control of the aircraft to return safely to its starting point or to land directly.

REDUNDANT AND SELF-HEATING BATTERY SYSTEM
This aircraft uses the TB51 dual battery system. Unlike the TB50 batteries, the TB51 batteries are smaller, lighter, more aerodynamic and have a higher voltage. They offer a maximum flight time of 28 minutes and allow hot swapping thanks to a new battery opening system that allows continuous operation without effort. In temperatures below 18 C (64 F), the battery triggers an automatic heating function, ensuring adequate flight performance even in temperatures as low as -20 C (-4 F).

ZENMUSE X9 COMPATIBILITY
The drone kit includes the ‘DJI Zenmuse X9-8K Air’ full-frame camera pod. The Zenmuse X9-8K Air system uses interchangeable lenses, the equipment has the CineCore 3.0 processing system that records in CinemaDNG and Apple ProRes RAW in 8K at 25 and 75 fps respectively, and can also record in ProRes RAW at 8K and 120 fps in S&Q mode. With details such as dual native ISO, 14 stops of dynamic range, or the DJI Cinema Color System, the machine is perfect for both operators and video producers.Compatible lens are available for an additional cost.

FAQ

Can I use DJI Inspire 3 with the X9 gimbal camera, TB50 battery, and storage card of DJI Ronin 4D interchangeably?

The gimbal camera and TB50 battery are not interchangeable. The storage card is interchangeable.
To improve DJI Inspire 3s battery life, flight experience, and performance and stability at all attitudes and speeds, Inspire 3s X9-8K Air gimbal camera has been optimized specially for aerial photography. Compared with the X9-6K and X9-8K gimbal cameras of Ronin 4D, the X9-8K Airs weight is reduced by approximately 50% with a centralized center of gravity, ensuring an improved flight time and flight experience. Additionally, the gimbal axis arms and lens locking design adopt optimized vibration-proof designs for aerial photography so that the aircraft can stay stable even during dramatic or high-speed flight maneuvers.
The new TB51 battery features higher energy density with reduced weight, and size, which is beneficial for the total flight time and wind resistance when flying forward, and is more advantageous than TB50 in terms of discharge voltage and reliability.
The DJI PROSSD 1TB of DJI Ronin 4D is interchangeable with Inspire 3.

Both the X9-6K and X9-8K gimbal cameras of DJI Ronin 4D weigh approximately 1.04 kg, while the X9-8K Air of DJI Inspire 3 weighs approximately 516 g, for a weight reduction of approximately 50%.

Are the gimbal camera, remote controller, storage card, and battery of DJI Inspire 3 interchangeable with those of DJI Inspire 2?

No.
All modules of DJI Inspire 3 have been redesigned to deliver fully upgraded performance in terms of flight, imaging, video transmission, storage, and battery life.
Gimbal Camera: DJI Inspire 3 comes with the X9-8K Air gimbal camera with a newly designed gimbal camera quick-release port that meets the data transmission requirements of 8K CinemaDNG videos, and further ensures stable gimbal connection during flight.
Remote Controller: DJI Inspire 3 comes with the professional-level DJI RC Plus and professional accessories such as a strap and waist support. The DJI RC Plus supports O3 Pro, a cinema-grade video transmission system that has taken a generational leap in transmission distance, latency, and overall stability. The 7-inch high-bright screen delivers up to 1,200-nits of brightness to provide an extraordinary outdoor monitoring experience. It also features several buttons and dials on the front, back, and top, which enable fast and intuitive operation. Button functions can also be customized. The built-in battery of RC Plus provides an operating time of approximately 3.3 hours, and extends to 6 hours with an external WB37 battery. It also supports battery hot-swapping to improve creative efficiency. On top of the classic flight control interface, the new DJI Pilot 2 app for Inspire adds a cinema-grade monitoring interface, which allows simple and convenient checking of information like camera exposure, video specifications, focal length, and gimbal angle, easily meeting the monitoring requirements of gimbal operators and DPs.
Storage: The included DJI PROSSD 1TB supports a max read speed of 900MBps for recording high-frame-rate videos of 8K CinemaDNG, and the footage can be read on a computer directly through the provided USB-C to USB-C cable without the need for a card reader, convenient for DITs.
Battery: DJI Inspire 3 is equipped with six TB51 intelligent batteries and an all-new battery charging hub. TB51 batteries utilize the latest battery chemistry technology for optimized reliability and performance, and are smaller, lighter, more streamlined, and higher voltage compared to TB50. They provide a 28-minute max flight time and support hot swapping. The all-new foldable battery charging hub can accommodate eight batteries. In Fast mode, it can charge tw
