They did and that sad. However now you know. Safety is one thing and we need all the competent and responsible drone Pilots we can get to strengthen the Drone community and maintain a positive image , on the other hand when we the customer pay our hard earned money and we follow the rules we shouldn't be limited at every turn as to where we can fly, I'm just saying.
Has anyone noticed that everytime DJI comes out with a firmware update that's supposed to fix issues The the new firmware update creates problems that we don't have, and in addition to that your bird worked perfectly prior to the update but after the update its performance is extremely affected REALLY!!! Now I ask is it me or is it DJI I have reached the conclusion and even though DJI is the world's leader and consumer drone technology they are limiting the performance of our aircraft at every turn by their new firmware updates so you have to be careful and I know this to be true because I had a phantom 3 standard I purchased a brand new Android tablet and it works flawless after a firmware update the new tablet was obsolete it kept crashing and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it so I was forced for to upgrade to an iPad
Mini 2 which I'm glad I did I'll never go back to Android but my point is this I paid my money and everything works no crashes at all took care of my Phantom 3 standard like it was my baby which it was and there is no reason I should have been limited by a firmware update that should have helped me or improved issues so I'm convinced that's when DJI manufactures these aircraft they are designed from the ground up to add new features by simply creating the firmware to do this and all the new latest bells and whistles that are supposedly add-ons or not really add-ons at all these machines are designed to be upgraded these add-ons to so called new features already exist DJ I like most companies such Apple it'll all about control plan and simple don't be deceived. There is no way you can tell me the the Phantom 4 which at its release was the most technological consumer drone to have ever hit the open market and less than a year they discontinued it, are kidding me and DJI sold the public a bogus bag of goods as though the same this new technological drone wasn't as good as we thought it was so we're going to improve on it and come out with the advance and
Phantom 4 Pro get the heck out of here!! I'm telling you guys we have to hold DJI and other companies completely accountable you will not get the benefit of our hard-earned money if you're not going to give us the best that you can for the money that we spend money is money and BS is BS.
I said all of this to say the Phantom 4 original is an awesome outstanding aircraft - the side obstacle avoidance and the infrared which are really not foolproof basically you have to use common sense but the aircraft itself is far from obsolete and I'm glad I purchased it I waited two years instead of paying $1,400 I got it for 699 I rest my case if you're willing to wait for the latest and greatest you can get it at a reasonable price point or at what you're willing to pay if you don't buy into the hype of all the bells and whistles which have not been proven but I basically just marketing height. Sorry for the long post but this needed to be put out there. I just want to know is it me or does someone else feel the way I do Fair winds and clear skies
