I picked up an M210 a couple of weeks ago with a little apprehension because I've been seeing a lot of chatter about bugs with the platform.
After two weeks of flying it, I haven't had any issues. So far it's been bulletproof and the majority of the anxiety I've been feeling about potential problems has subsided.
Notably;
I'm hoping that DJI unlocks the autonomous flight option for doing Orthomosic images until then I have to switch to my tablet to run autonomous flight missions.

Notably;
- The Crystal Sky 7.85" display works really well. The "High Brightness" works really well. I thought that I would need the "Ultra High Brightness" since I live in the desert and the sun is insane.
- The quality of the carrying case was a good attempt, but it's going to need a hard case.
- I did some light wind testing and it's solid. I was primarily interested in the M210 for the payload options but the ability to handle wind is a major factor in the high desert.
- If I had to describe it I would say it's like a Phantom 4 Pro on some serious steroids.
- The Cendence remote is really nice, no cords, solid mount, swappable batteries. I haven't even started to dial all the options it has for user controls.
- Swapping between the single to dual gimbal mount is pretty reasonable.
