So Simon you are saying your Naza-M V1 was brand new, never flown before you installed it? Curious, wonder if you got one from old stock or had been dropped somewhere along the way. I am convinced the correlation between shock trauma to the Naza and un explained fight characteristics has to do damaged internals.
Nope, not what I said at all.
First of all, I have no idea what tortures my unit may have endured prior to reaching my doorstep. As it arrived via UPS (certainly not MY choice of shipping methods), for all I know it may very well have been used to pound nails. But then...just about everyone else is in the same situation when it comes right down to it.
What I DID say is that the notion that this problem is the sole function of unit age is spurious at best. I have very good reason to believe that my unit is of quite recent manufacture, as well as a great many other newer units which all reportedly are suffering from the same problems as are older units. One or two examples are statistical variants, many examples are a trend.
As I've said elsewhere, I highly suspect the problem isn't a hardware failure at all...but rather a firmware issue. No idea who the code-monkey writing this stuff is, but he might want to take up plumbing instead. My guess is a
real chimpanzee would out do him easily.
So ST, you think DJI is covering a fix of the various issues being reported here, by putting out up-date 3.14,
No....I DON'T think DJI is covering this issue in 3.14. I don't really think they care enough to bother trying to fix it. DJI's past track record of rushing both hardware AND software to market in hopes of getting free beta-testing at the (often times hugely financial) expense of their customer base seems to indicate a general lack of concern for customers and their problems, and therefore no real wish to quickly (or ever) correct such issues. Any problems that ARE uncovered typically are not addressed for at least three or four (often times more) revision cycles.
All of the above said...I have now had opportunity to test 3.14 (you're welcome DJI) at least a small amount. While there may be some very small improvement in warm-up times, it is less than significant and does not even come close to a real and total fix of the issue. Perhaps, a 10 to 15% reduction at most...but I am being very generous with those figures. Therefore, my guess is that any change to be found is accidental as opposed to a deliberate fix.
