Should I upgrade? 1.03.0700

[markyodo]

I am at FW release 1.03.0700 and it's been stable and without annoying messages.
I haven't really felt the need to upgrade but it's been awhile so I thought I would ask if I should?
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Do you want to take advantage of the latest features and fixes? Then, you should upgrade. If not, don't upgrade.

I guess I should see if there is a consolidated list of "features". I haven't noticed any bugs yet with my operations.

You can download the firmware release notes from the Mavic downloads page.

Except, it doesn't work that way. Unlike other companies, DJI seems to have zero issues with releasing buggy firmware and screwing consumers over that are out of warranty when a firmware release results in damage/a bricked device. "Oh, just send it in. We'll charge you XYZ for it, because you're out of warranty and you have zero say." Then you're stuck fighting them and hoping you get the drone back.

Do you really believe DJI is trying to release buggy firmware? That seems counter-productive. I don't know that most people are bricking devices with firmware updates. It seems you are referring to a very small minority. And out of those people, I don't know that we can be sure all of those problems were caused solely by installing a firmware update.
