Not so good press for DJI

[aviscomi]

People are complaining that their new DJI drones are falling out of the sky

I wonder where they are getting the 14 number from? The other article I read said 12.

Both of those numbers are well below the 30+ list I had going on DJI forum before they took down my post. My "Unofficial Mid Air Shut Off" list is now over 50 cases.

I hope they figure it out and fix it. It would be especially nice if they would let us know when they do.

I was in the DJI forums and had read a firmware is due out soon per one of the administrators.

Hopefully it can be resolved with firmware. Like limiting the power when accelerating and such. But from many of the cases I read the Spark completely lost power not accelerating and such just hovering/sitting there. Hopefully it is not a battery seating/contact issue as GoPro found out you can't fix that kind of a problem via firmware. Time will tell...
