So, just like how pretty much every other drone manufacturers drones already work. Somehow people only give DJI shit over this and develop a curious blind spot about everybody else.
It is trivially easy for anyone with thumbs to kit-build a drone with no regulatory compliance whatsoever, in nearly any size, with absurd range and capabilities, for just a few hundred dollars. Despite that state of affairs having been the case for years, this has mysteriously failed to cause the Earth to fall out of its orbit into the sun.
IDK, most of the kits require soldering (because the industry is fundamentally braindead) and if you go look at the various online communities, you’ll quickly see that this is one hell of a filter.
so what if no other manufacturers do it? Maybe they should be forced to.
the hyperbole at the end of your comment is not necessary or helpful. We literally just saw a drone ground a firefighting plane in Los Angeles, so we know they can cause major problems at the worst possible times. Maybe it’s not a big deal on an everyday basis, but in disasters like the Los Angeles Fires of course more idiot content creators than usual are going to have their drone in the air collecting footage.
more and more people are getting drones so there are only going to be more and more problems as they grow in popularity.

i’m scared of the magic cancer smoke
Just get the lead free solder and no clean flux, it’s much less cancer
is it still magic tho
Oh 100% magic. And SMT hot air soldering is voodoo magic
Yeah lead free solder is perfectly fine.
Where I live, lead solder is even illegal to sell and buy unless you have a permit which is impossible to get for individuals

Lead free sucks ass and you can pry my leaded solder from my cold dead hands.
Seriously just wash your hands.
What about the fumes?
Fumes don’t contain lead, it’s not nearly hot enough. Those fumes are flux burning.
That’s good.
But I still don’t get why someone would willingly use lead when lead free works great.
I mean the RoHA for example exist for good reason.
Or just use an extractor.
Yeah that’s the real answer…
