@Zaheed, I do not mean to disagree with you. There is different reason in buying each aircraft model of DJI. For me, the Spark, I want a quad that small that I can fly in the neighbor hood safely to everybody without going away to the nature to fly. I have bought many DJI aircraft enough to not to hurrily go into new firmware trouble. It has been always trouble in the new firmware and Dji knows this. They, previously, allowed us to goback to known best version. But now they don't. Look at Inspire 2 forum. The most expensive 5,000$ range. Those owners are left hucking unusable aircraft with July update firmware and not a word from Dji. This Spark, force update or grounded just to prevent hacking? Probably. Or they are truly want to solve the shutdown mid-air. For me, I find the way to escape from being grounded. I fly Spark every single day with .0500 firmware without problem. I have no intention to do the update until it is false proven. I do allow myself to update another Spark to new firmware and there, minor issue comes, not a serious one, while many other have their Spark encounter IMU Exception followed by no responsive to rc. Probably I am lucky, for now.
Prevent hacking is almost impossible nowadays. But prevent users from hacking is easier. Dji need to look into the reason of the hacking and for Spark and Mavic they just want to fly longer. It is the mistake of DJI to make the quad that can fly that far. All consumer quad should be able to fly within line of sight, let's say 200 m.. Thus the hardware should limit this capability. Similar to the height, no quad should fly above 100 m. Doing this the no fly zone is almost not necessary and the software hack is meaningless. For those quad that have superior capability, they should be sold to only people with professional licence only. |
