No, I crashed my drone into a telephone wire in the mountains, leading it to fall 15 ft down a rocky slope and causing the plastic of an arm to come off, (not the wires) so now I have to buy the 50-70 dollar shell.

DJI Literally tell you not to fly in wet conditions eg.rain/mist. Last time I checked…waterfalls are wet…It gets into the air intake and damages the battery/electrical systems. It also voids the warranty.

Here's why you *do* buy the DJI FPV drone. Get the motion controller for it and literally *anyone* can fly it. So far my dad, my sister, a couple of my cousin's kids and a neighbor kid have all put more total air time on my DJI FPV drone than myself (I fly regular race quad and fixed wing). None of them have ever flown anything before. 2-3 minutes of ground school, and learning how to turn in a hover, I tell em to cross over the powerlines above the poles (it can't see wires) and just set em loose. None have ever crashed it. Even got my dad chasing my plane around after his 3rd flight, in sport mode. THAT is what this drone is for. Not diving waterfalls.. ;)

@@kuzadupa185 I think he means more the O3 and Air Unit, for home-builts. But I agree with him for a couple reasons: One, you don't wanna put that kind of investment in sketch situations, I mean top $$$! And also, DJI VTx's are way harder to attempt "water-proofing", considering the work that would go into disassembling the VTx to even attempt it. If I were to go for a dangerous shot like that, *you know* it's gonna be GoPro on Analog. I'd try to keep the S's out of it (that is, to run a 4S vs 6S, prevent arcing), at 200mw. If I ran 1W, a drop of water would cause a hot VTx to frickazee like James Brown on my couch.

Most commenters clearly don't understand FPV drones. The first crash was his mistake, but it's definitely ok to not recommend a drone that has a bad power-to-weight ratio. In the second case, the return to home malfunctioned during the signal loss and the drone just fell of the sky which is fully DJIs fault.
