So am I crazy to thinking that maybe DJI can add some stub wings to give additional lift in forward flight to increase speed/range? Wonder if anyone has try a DIY?

obviously the stub wings would likely need to be mounted more toward the bottom. and of course the aerodynamic assistance would only come with faster flight (sport mode) and maybe at slower flight the drag might actually decreases endurance a bit....

Already discussed. See Putting Wings or Winglets on a Mavic?
