Nothing wrong with the wait and see approach(if you can muster the patience ;) ).
It can be said that there may be a price to pay for being an early adopter on a new product. We'll probably never know if things like Groundstation, waypoints, follow me, were originally intended as part of the launch product, and were sacrificed in order to get the product ready to ship by the end of the Q4. It's always a struggle to hit a date and when engineering/design matters crop up, it's either ship what you have, or bite the bullet and delay to fix it. DJI chose the latter. It could be, at this point, that all their efforts and resources are on getting the model ready for production and polishing the app. Therefore, making any public commitment to future functionality is just something they will not do. At least not until the dust settles from launching the product and dealing with whatever issues may arise once they are out in the wild. I'm sure when they feel they can turn their focus to the Inspire's future, whether it be more app functionality, camera modules etc., they will make it known when they are ready.
This is just my impression and speculation of the situation, due to experience in other non-related product releases in the past. There are always things going on behind the scenes that you have to hold close to your chest, no matter how much you may want to be forthcoming and inform your client base. Trust me, it sucks to be on that end just as much as it is to be other.
Again, I have no inside knowledge of DJI at all, and my thoughts could be way off base. |
