does DJI make any consumer drone that uses carbon fibre?
It seems highly unlikely that DJI would introduce a new manufacturing process (and material) just to suit one particular product?!
(it would add more complexity, and reduce profitability)
also... lets be honest here ... whilst I love my diatone roma f5... its quite pretty - even that looks like a diy, unfinished done ... with wires exposed etc..
that kind of open flat/cut carbon fibre, is not really DJIs market .
Im not 100% keen on the DJI FPV 'style' (bit aggresive for me) , but there is no denying it has been styled/shaped.
so a carbon fibre drone, would need that kind of level of style/design... that going to make manufacturing more complex (than say iflight/diatone)
I see its pretty unlikely thats going to change - unless the DJI FPV proves to be a huge success in sales, and DJI go 'all in' on it.
so, for me... different drones, different roles.
the diatone is fantastic fun for proximity flying where I might hit things...
but even with the air unit, crossfire, gps rescue , its tech is inferior to the dji drone for longer range stuff.
the dji fpv is more a cruiser, I can chuck in a backpack, with minimum effort, and feel really confident that I can fly anywhere and it'll make it back home.
... its all so much lower effort, from batteries to flying,
at the end of the day..
the DJI FPV is First Person View = Immersive Flying , enjoying flight.
traditional fpv drones are more a sport like hobby, racing, acrobatics , adrenline - thats why the community is still happy to use analog signals that look like tv from the 1970s, because the the 'view' is not the most important thing.
in this sense the DJI FPV is not in the diy fpv sector, its a new sector for a new hobby experience.
