I will state everyyhing based on truth so that you can understand what was going on in the past two month.
I brought the spark on Mar 12, and activate the Spark on Mar 16. I am interested in drone and I want to take some footage for my graduation trip with my family on May and June.
On Mar 17, I did the test fly outdoor and it was all good. Than I took it to salvation mountain to take some footage on Apr 8. It was all good at fisrt couple of times, and I did not crash it or damage it at all. Then the Spark start to drop automatically without ant command from my RC. I tried 3 times in a roll and it happened every time. Every time I turned the camera tomards me, the spark starts to drop without and comand from my RC. Even I Tried to lift it up through my RC, it just keeps dropping. I need to turn the camera to other direction then I can fly it higher. Just for the record, I did not buy DJI care so once I crash the spark, it all counts on me even through it was not my problem(I guess).
When i came back from salvation mountain, I contact the DJI and I said I think this is a design issue. I want the refund. They said they can not issue a refund but they can do the repair. I thought about that and I think that might be a one-time issue. Once the spark is all good I can continue to fly and take it with me for my graduation trip. I sent the spark back and as promised, they did the repair which they replace the main board. I got the spark tell me to activate it again so I feel like this is a brand new spark and it gonna be OK to fly.
On May 6, which is 3 days after I received my "repaired drone", the first outdoor fly, the same issue happened. It was the frist outdoor fly after it was "repaired". the Drone automatically fly to it's right without any command from my RC. It alsmost crashed. The left and right fly is totally out of control and I have to fly it forward then got it back to control. I am really angry about that and I insist for refund this time. I know it is hard for lower level customer servive assistant to issue it, so I asked them to forward this case to manager level. They did, and one of the manager reached me tell me that the refund it not possible since return-refund period which it 14 days after I received the package.
I HAVE TO SAY THAT I WANT REFUND BECAUSE THE PRODUCT HAS DESIGN ISSUE AND IT KEEP OCCURS MORE THAN ONE TIME, NOT BECAUSE I BROUGHT THE PRODUCT AND I DON'T WANT IT ANYMORE. I DON'T THINK "14 DAYS" POLICY APPLIED TO MY CASE.
I talk to the manager couple of times through the phone and emails. We came to the conclusion that I will sent the product back to DJI to run a test. The test is to see that the probems comes from the operator or the product itself. I thought it is fair because we have to figure out what was going on. If that was my fault, then DJI should not take it. However, if it was the product issue, I am not gonna accept any Spark again. I keep telling the manager that any repair or replacement is not acceptable because it happen twice, and it happened right after Dji said it is all clear. The manager said OK and he promised me to send me the diagnose and we talk about the solution. However, after they run the test, I did not get any diagnose report but a notice that a new Spark was shipped. I contacted the manager and he said the diagnose report shows that it was the product problem so they issueed a replacement.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I MADE MYSELF CLEAR AND YOU AGREED. THEN YOU JUST TAKE THE AGREEMENT AS A PIECE OF ****?
After I brought Spark I spent more than 70% of the time to suffer from the problem and sent it back and forth and this mamager said "for some compensation, we can offer a set of propellers for the inconvenience".
What would you feel if you were at my position? By the way, I don'y think "14 days" policy can be applied to my case since this is not my problem, it is your problem!
I have no idea about what gonna happen next. If anyone from DJI saw this post and would like to talk to me, I will be here. I still keep the "replacement" here unboxed. Otherwise I just take their "solution" since they are the boss. They already close my case. This post it just a reference for other customers. Think about it before you buy the product.
