Drone Comparison - I Need to Buy a Backup Drone. Should I Buy the Inspire 2, or Settle for the More Affordable Phantom 4 Pro?

In today's show, we have a fascinating drone comparison. We compare the Inspire 2 to the Phantom 4 Pro and reveal the best option for you.

Our caller, Kyle from Idaho, recently attended our in-person mapping class in San Diego. This proved to be a game-changing experience for Kyle as he was able to add new clients and scale up his drone business significantly. Now, Kyle is planning on buying a spare drone so that his work is not affected in case of any equipment failure. Should Kyle buy another Phantom 4 Pro? Or, is it worth spending more to buy the DJI Inspire 2?

The Inspire 2 is a larger bird with greater wind resistance. The ability to carry larger payloads means that this drone can fly the cameras like the X4S with ease. Because of these reasons, there are many additional drone jobs that a pilot can take up with the Inspire 2. In this show, we specifically discuss flying over water and filming action sports. But, can Kyle use the Inspire 2 instead of the Phantom 4 Pro for drone mapping? Is Kyle better off buying the Phantom 4 Pro or Phantom 4 Advanced? Tune to this drone comparison to learn some nuanced information. Thanks for the great question, Kyle. Fly Safe!
