Holy sh*t that is amazing. I can't justify spending 1300EUR on it, unfortunately... :(

I really like DJI and how innovative they have been in making awesome consumer products that just work and are super easy to use. I have owned a few.

Don't worry I think there'll be a big second hand market for these after people get cocky and switch flight modes and stack it into the ground. :)
Interesting, so none of this bothers you

DJI had been supplying drone technology to Chinese security forces in Xinjiang https://www.pcmag.com/news/us-blacklists-drone-maker-dji-ove...

That's horrible but not unique to DJI. Western companies have (knowingly, or not) taken advantage of the slavery as well [https://www.bbc.com/news/business-53481253].

But the same could be said of big western tech (Amazon, Microsoft, etc) companies providing tech to western armies.
