hi all i ewill quote my self from another thread "" the old phantom 3 pro still gives me lessons how much a marvel of its time it was and more !!!! yesterday a friend has one with one of the motors yelling when running as it crashed earlier he decided to replace the 4 motors with a set non dji he has around , the shock was the esc reported an error and did not run when he soldered the new ones!!!! he replaced the old dji ones it ran fine ..... how smart this machine is as the esc board identified nondji motors by smart check and refused to run!!!!!!!!!!""
i wonder if this applies to newer mavics?? say the mavic 2 family ...or 3 ...etc is it that any other motors cannot be ran by the esc driver board of the drone???????
 
DJI has become very adept at preventing any software and hardware modifications to their drones. However, when lives are at stake, and an entire country's resources reverse engineers them, Ukranians have still found a way to modify Mavic 3 units to weaponize them and defeat detection and jamming during surveillance. They still go through 10,000 Mavic 3 units a month!

DJI Drones are PID tuned to the motors that are provided!! If somehow it started and I dont think it would. It would not have flown far or at all, without crashing.
These are DJI's not Speedy bees!
 
you are both right .. but i never expected the old phantom 3 to be that smart!!!! its a brushless motor thats it so simple ... i come from rc hobby and some diy in quads never came across an esc that selects its motor thats why am surprised!!!
as for dji products in Ukraine -( i hope peace for that country and all others indeed)- some times i pass by videos from that war for surprise it seems they use consumer dji drones!!! that show how reliable those things are in snow mud... !!!! but what do u mean they go through 10000 mavics a month!!!!??? where the hell can this number be provided
 
How are they weaponized? Just curious…

Wow. It LOOKS like most of that is a single take, until the POI of the peak, although I’m not sure that’s possible.
And if it’s more than one clip, amazingly good planning/ editing to make it appear seamless.
Impressive as hell on all levels.
