I believe it was clear and people are getting caught in a panic. I understand that people's livelihoods are involved and people are very defensive, but a thorough reading of all announcements should have clarified all these concerns. Regardless, I am happy to help clarify things to the best of my ability.
With regards to the P4 issues you mentioned, let's keep this thread on topic as much as possible. PM if there is something specific you'd like me to take a look at.
Thank you Joe for your answers,
I have taken a step back and only have a few questions remaining.
1. I understand and appreciate that when the drone is moved out of the country so it downloads the data for that location.
2. This maybe a dumb question, but many people have been asking is you require an internet connection when booting up the Mavic?
2.1. Follow up, if so do you need it when first starting the mavic in a new country? As sometimes it not possible to get a connection eg. islands, layovers, the cost of a data connection.
3. Broadcasting serial numbers, do you know if this will be mandatory in the next update or be able to turn off if the user chooses so?
4. Week signal, sometimes you just can't get a GPS fix. Back in the thread, it was said that the mavic would be forced into an NFZ state until it located a GPS signal. I believe this is the main concern for everyone, personally, I don't take off until I have a GPS fix. But like I said sometimes your on an Island and have no signal at all for anything. Will the mavic still function like it uses to, or will it be locked in an NFZ?
5. The battery, this is not so much for me as I have the Fly more comb. But it was stated that the *Reserve* for the battery was turned up so that it has more time to RTH. However, that means less fight time like I said to me it's not that big of a deal but to some it is. Can you confirm if this is true?
Last thing, if the serial number is being broadcasted, who can see it? Will I see it flying around on a flight scanner app, also who I live in Australia so my drone is not "FAA registered, I don't know who the "Drone Poilce" are in Australia. The only people I have given my serial number to is DJI, is there a chance that DJI will pass that on to the "Drone Police"?
I don't think you will, as it would not be appreciated by your customers. But like I said, I don't think you will your just building a database of your customers.
I should state that if you read the thread I was very concerned but now thanks to Joe, it's a lot clearer.
Thank you very much Joe,
- Brock
PS. Do you know what happened to Mavic pilots? It was a great place to learn what upgrades everyone was doing to their Mavic's.
