DJI Drone Malfunction: Fell Into Water, Black Screen Issue, Then Flew Away Automatically
The demo unit, which was originally a brand-new model, has an interesting story. The unit that malfunctioned and ended up in the water? That one was actually a refurbished device. On the other hand, the unit that mysteriously took off with a black screen was indeed brand new, meeting all of the factory’s rigorous quality standards. Despite this, it feels so familiar in my hands—it’s truly impressive how DJI’s drone flight system manages to leave such a lasting impression.

That’s crazy! It’s wild to hear about drones having such random issues, especially when one flew away on its own. I wonder if there’s something more going on with the software or sensors that caused these malfunctions.
Wow, those are some wild stories from the demo units! It’s crazy to think about a drone just flying away like that, even if it was technically new. Refurbished or not, though, DJI really does have a way of making their drones both reliable and unpredictable at the same time.
Wow, that’s wild! So the refurbished one crashed but the brand-new one just took off on its own? Makes me wonder if DJI’s quality control is slipping or if this was just a freak accident. Either way, I’d be pretty nervous flying one near water after reading this!
Wow, that’s wild! I’ve heard about DJI drones being reliable, but a refurbished one failing and a brand-new one acting up is pretty unexpected. Makes me wonder if there’s some weird software glitch affecting both types. Still, it’s impressive how consistent their flight system feels despite the issues.
Wow, that’s wild! So the refurbished one crashed but the brand-new one had a mind of its own? Makes you wonder if DJI’s “rigorous standards” might need a second look. Still crazy how consistent their flight system feels though.
Wow, that’s wild! A refurbished drone failing makes sense, but a brand-new one taking off with a black screen is seriously concerning. Makes me wonder if DJI’s quality control isn’t as tight as they claim. Still, their flight system must be pretty advanced if it can fly “blind” like that!
