Yup. I am chocking it up to being "unlucky" for the board to fail so soon. One month after warranty is a little suspicious but then again it is a manufactured product that hopefully has gone through the testing that would make such early failures of a critical component "rare". Hopefully I will have many more hours of successful flights
2 things that stick out to me here: 1) You say it did flip on takeoff, twice. and 2) You've had some local technician repair or mess your drone. Both of those are huge red flags to me, personally. Especially if the technician repairing your drone is not a DJI employee. If you've flipped it on takeoff a couple times then it's hard for me to place the blame on the product (IMO) - You never really know how much damage that can do to it - No matter how much you've inspected it. A small crash like that can do damage to the internal components. Sometimes a call to DJI can solve the problem. I had an issue with my P3P not being able to see anything on the camera on my screen and it turned out I just had to reset everything and reconnect the AC to RC. I had a crash once, sent it in to DJI for repair and it came back great... Haven't had an issue since. Also, if you're having a hard time with updating your firmware check out YouTube. Sometimes it makes things easier when you can walk thru it on video with someone else. Hope everything works out for you. |
