    genuine oem DJI parts where to buy?

    if you purchase and compare motors, gps module, etc.. from different websites including Amazon, the same part have different build quality. is there more than one manufacturer for the same dji part? are some selling (or being sold) parts that didn't pass DJI's qc without their knowledge?

    Not so new DJI Go4 map showing airspace
