Either from RCgroups or here at PP, DJI has implemented user's DIY fixes for the majority of their issues. DJI's forum spokesmen, Tahoe, Blade and Dr.T, just add further insult to injury when they re-affirm DJI abilities as an engineering deep company. Sorry I don't buy their corporate mantra.
I agree they are in whole number percentage of failures, whereas it should be in hundredths of a percent. But again, as fragmented as the user base is, we'll have those that say otherwise stating no real data to support failure percentage.
If it were a domestic (N-American or Euro) company, do you really believe people would accept/defend the failures like we have witnessed? For some reason we accept failure when the price suits our interest. We expect domestic manufactures to compete at the same price point, but with higher standards. I'm willing to pay for higher quality, but you have to show proof for same.
Sighting the GPS foil mod as the example. DJI never admitted to the issue, yet they implemented changes (V3) that were DIY generated. Further they never offered a factory part upgrade of same. Why?
