@E90RAW haha! Yes, the “chopping block” indeed. Thank you. You assumed correctly, I do not have DJI Care Refresh. I did try buying it when I originally purchased my M2P but was quickly disappointed to find out that it’s not available in South Africa as yet and because we don’t have an official...

Thank you @Dakarenduro Dji has been very accommodating thus far. I’m starting to really understand that honoring a warranty for a device with so many variables is a tricky affair and there appears to be a lot more to learn from a pilot point of view as well. With regards to the flight path, it...

@peterc4 thanks a mil for the wishes and compliment! Let’s see what happens. I’m not sure how the forum works yet but I will try to keep the thread up to date with the progress of the case with Dji, just to possibly show resolve.

@timinator Thank you. I will definitely do that. I don’t mean to sound dramatic but besides my initial shock and distress from the crash which led to me losing my temper, Dji for the most part, have been very polite. With the pandemic going on and it effecting global shipping, they’re...

Thanks so much for the compliment @MAvic_South_Oz . I’ve learnt quite a bit in the last couple hours. I am a little hard-headed when it comes to learning and sometimes only doing so when in distress, as you’ve seen. It may sound strange but I do feel a lot better about the crash knowing a bunch...

@timinator thanks for the heads up. I know that expecting DJI to explain possible causes of the crash as in-depth as the experienced pilots on here might be asking too much but it would definitely help enforcing a little more caution within the industry. Anyways, thanks for the quote! I will...

Thanks @sar104 Understood. From the official DJI forum I’ve seen some pretty strange replacement/repair policies. Cases where DJI ruled obvious pilot error and then later over turned and replaced. Well, I’ve sent them as much information as I possibly could at this point which is basically what...

You’re very much correct. I suppose sometimes flying a little too confidently leads to some very stupid outcomes. I will definitely select locations more responsibly next time. I instantly felt the dread of someone possibly being injured after the fact, very scary feeling. This might possibly...

Definitely a big learning curve, to be honest, from this incident, I’ve learnt more than I believe I otherwise would of. So your honesty is much appreciated. Thank you.

This just might be my most important lesson from this whole incident. Thank you so much for your time and analysis. Solid knowledge for the future.

Although this proved not be the case later (through my own fault) I did not know that the M2P did this. Awesome!

Thanks a lot for the advice! More than an explanation, you’ve provided great strategy for the next flight. Much appreciated!

Thank you so much for your feedback and for taking the time to illustrate the flight path. I haven’t been flying for quite as long as most here, so I guess for some reason I thought I’d seen the worst and maybe pushed the craft a little too confidently. I’ve learnt a lot just from your response...

Hello fellow Mavic Pilots. This is my first post, I’m not 100% sure how the posting process works but I hope my research is correct. Apologies in advance for the long post. Sadly, my Mavic 2 Pro had an ‘unexplained’ incident recently and I am having some trouble communicating my concerns...
