It was never an issue to begin with, so I am sure DJI has done nothing. Other than a handful of flights on early P2v+ V3 quads, there have been few problems. If this was truly an "undersized wire" problem or soldering problem, the number of these that would have crashed would have been so great that no one would buy one, and the media would be all over it.
Do yourself a favor, don't be panicked every time a post comes up on these forums about a perceived problem or fix for your quad. Most of the time it is guesswork and speculation on the part of the person giving the diagnosis.
Nothing personal to those who are genuinely trying to help, but DJI pays engineers millions of dollars to design and test these things. They don't get everything perfect all the time, but to think that there are problems and fixes like this forum talks about is really more opinion than science.
You obviously are new here..... Did you bother to look back through the last 10 pages to see DJI's attempt at fixing this? Probably not, no absolutely not, and spouting that every thing is fine does not add to this thread and I wish I could delete your post.
You dont repair these quads nearly daily and see the damage the broken wires cause. Gimbal gone, body smashed, legs broken, 1-4 esc's damaged, 1-4 motors damaged, Gps antenna cracked, main board plugs broken off, battery case cracked, cells damaged.
Will all solid wires in the flexing vibrating arm break? I dont know, but probably, eventually they all will unless the owner loses it to a fly away or user error results in a crash.
How many flight before they fail? One long term flyer reported 50 flights before they broke off, some have reported half a dozen.
We dont see crashes with the multistranded wires separating at the esc unless the motor or arm separate. We see crashed birds with solid esc wires often having broken motor leads.
There is no reason for the solid motor wires to break in a crash unless it was fatigue. There is extra length on them to allow some twisting. They are most often the cause of the flip of death in the Vision line.
