We have now added the DJI Inspire 2 to our fleet that allows for 5.2K video in CinemaDNG RAW or Adobe Prores and RAW Photos (21 MP). The drone can accelerate from 0 to 90 Km/h (90 mph) in just 5 seconds and hits a maximum speed of 58mph (94kph). A dual battery system prolongs the flight time to a maximum of 25 minutes, while self-heating technology allows it to fly even in low temperatures( -20 C). Flight Autonomy has been revised and developed specifically for the Inspire 2, providing two directions of obstacle avoidance and sensor redundancy.
