Hi Stijn, I do only have experience with the LITE version of the Unifi AC series, and can therefore only talk for this device. There's no web GUI - the only way to flash is via ssh or in bootloader. As we don't have a way to sign our images (RSA signature?), there's no way to guarantee that Ubuquiti devices will be easily flashable in the future.
There's a thread in the forum [1], stating the bootloader checks the signature and also newer firmwares's userspace executables for upgrading also perform checks. Worst case, if the devices are completely locked down in future: directly flash a somewhat "open" bootloader to the SPI flash. For me, a factory image only makes sense, if there's a way to flash it via given ways in stock firmware.
