--- I noted this on another thread recently, but I think such information is very important ... ---
My MA2 recently reported an ESC error and did not want to start anymore ... That happened one morning after everything was going well the day before.
"This is actually a guarantee case" - according to the DJI service, which I could reach by phone.
During the repair, however, it was found that my MA2 has already got "wet" ... There is a test strip inside the MA2 that turns red when the MA2 has gotten wet !!!
A repair was therefore not carried out! For safety reasons, DJI will not repair a drone if the said test strip is colored red !!!
Possibly the moisture on earlier flights came from a (short) rain shower, fog or something similar. However, no problem was ever reported by MA2.
But the ESC error now resulted in DJI refusing to repair the MA2 ...!
I should pay EUR 489.68 for the exchange of the MA2.
Fortunately, I had also completed Care Refresh, so I ended up paying "only" 79 EUR ...
I fear that DJI can quickly refuse a warranty repair in this way, because the pilot cannot check what is "displayed" inside the drone, especially if there has never been a crash - and certainly not into the water.
Moisture, perhaps from a grass landing, cannot of course be ruled out, that is actually the case. But not repairing another error is a "difficult decision" ...
