I: Preamble

DJI community is an innovative platform created by DJI for product information exchange and sharing among the users.
These DJI communities will always follow the philosophy  of "respect the dream, the pursuit of pure". Our main purpose for this  forum is to hear firsthand from our customers of their joys, creations,  projects, and insights. Please keep in mind this is not a place to  simply air your grievances. We encourage helpful discussion above all  else.
We thank all of you for being a part of this growing  community. In order to keep the forums running well and to prevent  problems and conflict, please follow these simple principles.

  • SERVICE forum: Threads not encouraging to discussion and created primarily to get support from DJI staff go here. If you are looking for community support for an issue, please post in the related product forum. All threads in the wrong location (up to moderator discretion) ware subject ot be moved to the appropriate forum.


IIIb: Posts
  • Multiple or duplicate posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed.
  • When replying to another user, ensure to include the other user's post as a quote to reference it.

  • Please use the report function if a user is breaking forum rules. This helps us mods do our job better.
  • Do not abuse the report function. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they are breaking the rules

  • Do not attempt to act as a moderator. If someone is breaking any forum rules you need only report them. All reports are looked at and cases studied. Any attempts to impose on another users activity will be seen as harassment and is not allowed.
