Yeah, right? Gooooood luck telling, idk, my uncle to do that. He’s approaching seventy but uses drones as a hobbyist photographer and to do the occasional surveying for work. He’s not going to be able to “lol just build your own”. And afaik there’s nothing remotely competitive by us manufacturers
Oh I’ve built a few over the last 10 years. There’s a lot to be said for what DJI has accomplished over that time. I doubt it would cost me less that 10K to make something that has all the features they offer in a $2K package. And it would take months for a prototype.
Build your own drone. Don’t bother paying the DJI markup when you can get a full frame mirrorless on a bunch of wood with brushless motors attached.
Okay but the DJI drones have just a few benefits over something like that lol
