I’m not sure what drones are flown at your club, but if they are having problems, then phantom 4 , 4 Pro inspire , and the 3 matrice versions have the option to use dji Pilot app, and I know many using matrice use it.
Litchi is also an option , but even all those who subscribe to , they still prefer to use dji go 4. It seems strange that they would go back to the dji app if it’s so problematic , also the vast majority of Mavic Pro flying fine, I think it would work out a lot better if we all used the same device, we see in the new Autel that they only support 5 devices, so they must see many devices as problamatic, if we had separate apps we still have the issue that no one wants to discuss, which is how problematic are the devices we use becoming. And why so few adopted by Autel .
Many have used Litchi and stopped using the Go4 app for the same reasons. Litchi works better for their uses. Commercial and hobby. Go4 issues have been coming and going for both iOS and Android over the last year or more. Some get fixed, some get put on a long back burner, and others get solved or users revert to previous versions that worked for their product type.
Many there just think the Go4 app is too weighted for it's own good. Some are programmers as well. Many times Go4 has been updated for one product add, and messed with other products. Nobody likes that at all. We have IIRC 3 guys with Inspire2, none with a Matrice (though many would like to buy one), most with P3, P4, P4A, MP, MA, Spark and other brand drones, and custom built drones for racing. Most use the P4's to record the races.
I get that it's hard for DJI or any company to test every type of device, but like these guys say there is no excuse not to verify and validate the most common mobile devices in the market.
If DJI would rather go full iOS support, then they need to do just that. I doubt they would want to lose the other 50+ % of the Android market though. That's a lot of customers. |
