would make sense, however DJI gives out its SDK for other app makers to create apps that work with their machines. They encourage 3rd party apps to be made, because those apps also help drive sales. I understand the notion of selling someone a bird, they use some 3rd party app and it crash then they come to me to fix it... however, SDK only allows so much manipulation..infact its a controlled manipulation for a reason. Im not saying they should pay for a crash with a 3rd party app at all... im only saying why encourage it if the first thing they are going to say when you were using a 3rd party app is sorry cant fix it.
So what you said makes sense, One might not think its worth the risk to use any 3rd party apps if you want some type of warranty to be applied when something happens.
If i was a 3rd party app maker, especially somoene like Litchi or Autopilot whose made pretty good money selling their app, I would pay close attention to this particular case and others like it. If it starts getting popular, then people may not purchase their app because they are afraid if something happens DJI will write them off when they try a warranty claim. Also, DJI can stand to be a little more helpful because certainly these apps help sell the quads. maybe some type of approval process the app makers can get from DJI so that DJI can attest to the quality of the app or something... who knows..
