OK, Time to put this topic to rest and give the final details. DJI repair center contacted me and tried to talk me into paying for the $640 core board replacement. They asked me several times and they got the same response every single time..... No, ship the drone back along with all the new...

The thing that I find the weirdest about the entire thing is the whole run around I got from the DJI repair center. It's the Gimbal and camera that's bad. That didn't fix it and now we can't figure it out. Going to send it to DJI driectly. They get it back from DJI, and it's not fixed. The...

OK, I'm done with the DJI repair center. Just as I was afraid, they just wanted to keep throwing parts at the darn thing. First it was the gimbal/ camera (paid for $438), Sent it off to DJI for proper repair and then got it back. Now it is the GKAS and they say its also the core board (says...

I have no problem with that at all. As long as it works as it should, I'll be happy. Now as long as I get my case back. hmmmm

This is hilarious! This morning, the progress now says "Repairing your drone". Wierd. haha

Just an update and now it has me curious to say the least! haha I decided to check on the website to see what the status was and.......Drum roll....... I'm still confused and even a little more now. Before, the status was always "working on your drone". This morning, I looked up my work order...

OK, I got curious and now it has me scratching my head in wonderment of trust. The last word I received was from the repair center in NJ saying they were sending it off to higher ups to get it repaired. So, I am getting curious as to what is going on so I write to the NJ center and as if they...

Sadly, that is almost exactluy like it seems like. I shipped the drone dirsctly to the service center in New Jersey from Utah. The shipping was was paid for by them, so no complaints there. Once they had received it, I received the phone call saying it needed a gimbal and camera to the tune of...

Makes me wonder..... If they changed out the Gimbal and Camera with a new one and it's still having the same issue.... The original one could possibly have nothing wrong with it. I wonder if they will ship the original back with the drone after it's al fixed?

As it stands right now, I was told I have paid for all the repairs I need to. Going to headquarters and getting done there is at no cost to me. We shall see but so far , they have been straight forward with me on the whole process. I did send a message to the seller and let him know what's...

OK, Makes me happy I decided to leave it to the professionals!!!! Just received a call from the DJI Service Center in NJ. They did replace the gimbal and camera but they have been working on th edrone for the last 3 days. They uploaded the latest and greatest firmware and are getting (as he...

When I first got it, I tested the drone batteries with just hovering. All 3 lasted close to 30 minutes. Might have to let this $500 wound heal a little before I get a few spare batteries. It is getting to be the off season so it will just be familiarizing and pleasure flying for now. Maybe more...

Verdict is in for those who have been folowing. According to the techs, it was gimbal and camera that were causing my issues with this new purchase. They said it could have happened from a crash or impropertly stored. Sure would have been nice to get the true story from the seller. I could have...

Just looked at the repair status and they are diagnosing the problem BUT.... They already have a new gimbal on the repair request. Just has me asking myself, if it is the gimbal, why would the camera not stay stationary when the drone is turned but rather stay almost like fixated on one spot...

But, if it was the motor, it wouldn't perform the self check when you first start it up or when I restrored the factory settngs. The motor wouldn't be bad only when you try to use the remote to control it. Again, I do hope it is operator error and the send me a message saying, "You idiot! The...
