Wow. It’s amazing that a company as big as DJI can create something so confusing to so many of its customers (or just a poor design). It’s a little confusing to me as well and although I understand it better now, it just seems like a crappy design. Regardless, they should make an official explainer video, especially for things relating to in-flight assistance features. Not much assistance if you just leave it up to your customers to figure it out. If this was a product that didn’t have any real world concerns if problems were to arise ,then I wouldn’t think twice.. but for a small aircraft in a world already largely on edge about them.. not the smartest move on DJI’s part. If they are going to dominate the drone market, then they should have the care and desire to make every change or update complete with detailed instruction, no matter how small. Even if a large portion of users don’t need them, there will always be plenty that really need the factual data.. not consumer guesswork. As a drone pilot, we are expected to take every detail very seriously, it’s only fair that the manufacturer should be taking it 100 times more seriously. If they aren’t, then they are taking the current boom in drone enthusiasm (huge profits) for granted. I really wish 3DR had stayed in the game. They wouldn’t do crap like this.
