    Spark is going to be a litigation nightmare, or an attorney's dream

    Depending on your perspective...This drone is going to be chopping new drone owners up left and right, and DJI marketing it to new inexperienced owners and features that involve direct contact with drone in operation...this is gong to be interesting to say the least. Calling it now, either the...

    I believe DJI sold me a refurbed Mavic as "new"

    I just realized the RC also had a hair under the plastic sticker lol

    I believe DJI sold me a refurbed Mavic as "new"

    Here's some other things that caught my eye, the stickers on side appear reapplied, they weren't on straight, and they had like a slight layer of dust under them.

    Here's the condition my box arrived in, it's what remind me to record my unboxing in first place, and made me question the bird. Then I remember that DJI's website said all Refurbs end with an R in their serial

    NJ Town takes steps to regulate drones

    Any rhyme or reason to Best Buy's in store pick up inventory patterns?

    for some reason, the mavic pro will go from "available in 1 hour" for almost all stores around me in 75 mile direction to "available to pick up on xx" for every store in 75 mile radius, all in one day. I've called two Best Buy's and they told me they have one in stock. I've seen this happen...

    Terrible day. Drifting and crash

    I'm sure others have chimed in, but it's definitely due to you only having 6-8 satellites and atti mode.

    It's actually their Communications Director, he said: " I'm very sorry to hear about what happened. This sounds like it was a horrendous warehouse mistake -- I've never heard of anything like this happening before. Can you send me your order number so we can hunt this down?"
