They "Had" our money when we bought the P3 a few months ago........ BUT a Successful Business Needs to ensure They HAVE Our money In The Future as well. - i.e future customers and sales to sustain a Growing business..!
Do you think they will survive even another 2 years if they Don’t take out a New Phantom/Inspire version that people will want to buy within the next 6 months/1 year?
The question is will customers flock-in to buy the new platform, or Do we as consumers have a choice....... If DJI Stuff-Up then they are going to see a decline in sales, which will hopefully make them look at things differently.
Highly Successful Businesses can go down Overnight if they get things wrong! in a compatitive world - Look at what happened to one time world leaders like Blackberry and Nokia, Ericsson! - All these companies once had a great product. They thought they knew what the customer wanted, BUT didnt listen and Failed to implement what the customer Actually wanted. - Customers stopped buying, result = Boom! Business went down.... Simple!
To be Honest - I have a Vested Interest in ensuring that DJI DONT Stuff-up! .... all because I have invested a lot of money in their current platform, and More Importantly because i think they have a GREAT product that works really well right now....., but with how Geofence is being implemented, they are going about it the wrong way...,
.....And Currently DJI Dont seem to be Listening to the Concerns of their customers, and what the customers Actually want!..... Now do you see History repeating itself?
I am NOT Against GeoFencing... I think it makes the hobby we love so much safer, and may help to alleviate the perceived "Bad Image" that Drones suffer from. It will also appease the authorities (CAA, FAA etc..) and release the pressure that DJI may be under from them.
HOWEVER - There can be a BAD implementation or GOOD implementation of a GREAT thing... And currently I think GeoFence is being BADLY implemented by DJI, on a Great Idea and Fantastic Product Line-up!
