DJI Inspire 2 is a ready‑to‑fly, pro‑grade aerial cinema platform built around a magnesium‑aluminum airframe and DJI’s CineCore image‑processing architecture. It supports interchangeable Zenmuse cameras (X4S, X5S, and later X7) and professional codecs/bit‑rates via DJI CINESSD, enabling Apple ProRes and CinemaDNG RAW workflows when license keys are applied. A dual self‑heating battery system, upgraded flight control and obstacle sensing (forward/downward stereo vision plus upward IR), a dedicated 2‑axis FPV pilot camera, and dual‑operator control are designed for dependable on‑set collaboration and broadcast‑ready production.

Drawbacks

  • Highest‑quality recording (ProRes/CinemaDNG) requires DJI CINESSD media and paid license keys, adding system cost.
  • Camera/gimbal typically sold separately; total build cost varies by Zenmuse model and licenses.
  • Larger, heavier airframe than consumer drones, increasing logistics and operational constraints.
  • Typical flight time in the low‑ to mid‑20‑minute range with heavier cameras may require multiple battery sets for productions.
