Dave,
Thanks for your take and insight. I do apologize if my comment was taken negatively. It was actually a positive post and I am still buying DJI products, I am a happy customer. I expect bugs, I have been flying RC an planes for a while and know that procedures aren't to be messed with.
That said I am also a business owner and know that you can' please everyone, and some people are childish and have unrealistic expectations. Every company had growing pains and it is what it is.
Take my maiden flight did it go 100% no, when i was done was letting the battery drain to below 5% as requested after the update, then i tried to put it back in travel mode it wouldn't... when i got home i tried and it did. I am sure someone would have posted a negative, but we (as you know more than i do) are dealing with state of the art very new tech, so yes sometimes glitches happen. Same with the P3P, every now and then it will do something weird, land it check it, make sure all is well and go on with your day.
As for turn around times yes that is a bummer, but I am sure this year is also exceeding all expectations, and you are all scrambling to create new procedures and trying to do you best. The fact that there are more moderators, the fact that you listened to feedback on the new FW, this is great, I applaud you for it as a company. It shows that all rumors about DJI are wrong and that even if you are not perfect you are trying to make people happy with the product.
To make this short, my "lucky" comment was probably more sarcastic than you think in the sense that yes I have updated every time and have had no issues. I love to fly and cringe when people say that the product is awful. It is a lot of user error and I said in a post a while back that I think the biggest mistake DJI made was marketing: everyone can fly easy... in a sense it is true but no one follows directions lol. Same goes to a parent that gives a 16 year old a Porsche he will crash it... As for my comfort level with the I1 i think i am just cautious, i have had it for a day, actually have a photo shoot on friday and will probably only take my P3P until I get more stick time with the I1... but that is just me.
