You make some good points in terms of trying to enjoy etc and I will take that on board. I also thank you for your slant on data security. If it means that, then thats much more acceptable, but that wouldn't need a f/w update as it's collected and sent by the phone isnt it? I've not done this...

That feels like there are plenty of us with flakey hardware then and the firmware iterations could be a weak and failing attempt to work around them. If proven, there should be an intrinsic right to return kit for a replacement, but I fear current law would leave people stuffed with the burden...

At this point I wouldn't buy the 1st. I am new and though I've had the drone a week, I've not flown it. Why?? I took all the good advice about watching youtube videos. Upgrading of firmware was pretty horrible. Then, it wanted me to calibrate the compass. I'd had it suggested the IMU was...
