I wonder where the tipping point will be...
Yes the pure photog. sees this quad as a tool. Tools should be reliable and predictable.
But model aircraft fail. Operators fail (Even the experienced ones).
MR operators require additional skill sets or areas of understanding beyond what a photog. may already have like: aerodynamics (VRS, ground effect), regulation (NOTAM, NFZ, commercial), electronics (soldering, measurement), wireless (antennas, dBm, dBi, propagation, multi-path), sat. nav.(GPS, K-index, ), magnetic hazards, calibration, Naza programming (parameter set, etc.), meteorology, and on, on.
Lot's of Stuff!!!
And vice-versa for the non-photg/video guys coming in from an r/c aircraft only background (me).
Raise your hand if owning a Phantom has increased your technical knowledge and exposed you to things you never thought about before.
Achieving a fault-less flying camera for the masses is DJI's goal but will still require knowledge or awareness of many technologies.
