Very much annoyed by DJI's requirements for me to purchase 'DJI Care Refresh' for my 4-day-old Mavic 2 Pro.
Purchased a new Mavic 2 Pro (my second), which I received and activated four days ago. I haven't flown it yet, having put it aside after powering it to get familiar with the Smart Controller.
Tonight, I went to purchase DJI Care Refresh on it, and it complains that the Mavic 2 was activated over 48 hours ago. The web page provided a link with instructions on how to register even though it was activated 2 days too late. OK.
The requirements: I am to record a video with 14 images or actions of the drone, including serial numbers, calibrating the compass, formatting the SD card, demonstrating he gimbal moving, flying up, flying down, flying forward, flying backward, rotating, etc. etc. etc. The video is supposed to be uploaded to YouTube and the link sent to them for review!
Good grief! I haven't flown it, I certainly have not crashed it, and DJI has the capability to remotely confirm that without me becoming a moviemaker and posting my serial numbers in a public forum! Although I purchased Care Refresh on each of the four DJI drones I've purchased before, I expect that I'll just keep my $149 this time.
