I would have to respectfully disagree with you. There are a lot of things DJI doesn't make that others do. I am sure if there is a reason it is because they are sticking to their core strengths...making drones.
Lots of companies make cases. Lots of companies make decals and skins. There are landing pads, lights, gimbal locks, filters and lots of other drones accessories made by third party manufacturers...I am sure they are in it for the money...must be money in it or why would they do it.
I would disagree also. DJI is a Chinese company, they are in it for the money, and make a small range of accessories that are in demand or can earn them extra sales, but they are smart enough not to get into making things that don't sell. Try putting up a poll on this site asking how many people have purchased a parachute system, actually fitted it to their aircraft and regularly use it. You will count the yes responses on the fingers of one finger.
DJI don't want you fitting other peoples devices to their product because in most cases the aircraft are not designed to cope with them. There have been several parachute systems in the past, none of the ones I remember are still around today. And they require you to modify the aircraft to fit them. They talk about stoppi9ng the props before deploying the parachute, how? It can only be done by hacking into the aircraft's electronics. No wonder DJI don't approve.
How does the device tell that a manouvre is indicative of a failed aircraft, and therefore decide to deploy? And if you need to manually deploy the chute, how do you do that - particularly in the split second you have to make that decision. Many owners cannot react rationally to situations they fly themselves into, much less do so in an emergency.
