No. You are wrong. Those are features that should be in the more expensive drones that are actually used for commercial purposes like an Inspire 2/3.
The phantom series is more for enthusiast and recreational use and should not have these more expensive features on it, allowing the price to be capped lower.
Well by your logic --- increased range and flight times are also unnecessary since a P4 is just a "recreational use" machine, right? If it's purely an enthusiast level UAV then we should be happy with any flight time over 10 min. and range over 500 yards.
Bottom line is --- if Lightbridge can be tweaked to provide 1080p for minimal cost then I say it's worth a small reduction in flight time because of increased battery drain. Better yet --- design it so that the GO app allows you to set the FPV bitrate on a sliding scale --- that way you can adjust it up or down depending on what type of flight you plan on having.
