[QUOTE="Locutus40, post: 75555, member: 13216"] well not really years ahead .. its not years ahead.. dji stole most of the ideas from 3dr and other drone users.. heres how... before 3dr had a arduino based gps drone that in fact does the same thing dji does rth waypoints though mission planner etc on a 8 bit micro controller... old school.. then they added what sonar.. optical flow.. there have been optical flow and sonar on 3dr robotics drones since way before dji... you can buy all these things now for 1/3 the cost you can build a 250 size drone with optical flow gps rth waypoints on mission planner software and 3 batteries for 250 dollars maybe 300.... so dji like apple stole the ideas and all they did was make the drone sexy looking ie like apple market a attractive looking drone.. you can even buy gimbals for the 250 size drones.. so what dji is doing it nothing new... infact i can build a 120 size drone with rth etc with a 50 dollar f4 controller board for like 200 bucks or less the size of your palm... so what dji does is play on peoples stupidity.. they marketed their stuff as inovative.. i see no inovation in anything they do... have they made something no one else has no.... oh boy they stuck cameras on the sides and back... and the software to tie them in ill give them that thats about it folks... like apple people will jump on drones and buy them if they hear it has a bigger screen... wheres the inovation? im telling its not there.. dji is a chinese company thats making millions off us... and we have the power to change them... the spark was made to just make a profit not satisfy a need.. because all their drones are 3 times the price of what you could build on your own..
