    DJI repair sent me a refurb

    Well, it ends in RB. Not sure if that is significant.

    DJI repair sent me a refurb

    You're correct. This is what I found: DJI Refurbished Products - Up to 20% Savings, Certified Quality and Full Warranty | DJI.com Way down the page, the #6 FAQ confirms it. Not complaining, and I'm even happier that it's a new drone - but I wonder why they would do that. Thanks!

    DJI repair sent me a refurb

    The new S/N doesn't have a S or R in that place. It has an R in the second to the last character. When I got it, it came in a new box with the plastic wrapping in place. Also, the drone had all the usual stickers that need to be removed, just like a new drone. Plus, my FAA registration number I...

    DJI repair sent me a refurb

    I'll be flying under part 107. The original drone was registered under part 107.

    DJI repair sent me a refurb

    Crashed my MA2, sent it in to DJI for repair. They sent back a new/refurb drone with a different serial number. Caught me by surprise to see a new drone in the box. Assuming it's a refurb. Being a complete newb, I guess I should go on FAADroneZone and un-register my other S/N and then register...

    DJI crash

    I'm using DJI repair for the first time. Sent in my MA2 last week with two broken arms. Will DJI call or email first with a repair estimate? What can I expect? I was thinking 3-4 weeks before I get my drone back. I'll be ecstatic if I get it back in 2 weeks.

    Part 107

    My goal is to be a safe, knowledgeable, intelligent pilot. Here's what I'm doing. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Bought a Kindle book on Amazon. Quickly realized that it was the bare minimum to get me to pass the test if I memorized it. Scoured the Internet and collected a bunch of docs...

    I am looking for Mavic Pro flyers in The Village FL area.

    Ok, one more for Ocala. And I also just got a Mavic Air 2. SW Ocala to be more precise. About 3 miles from On Top of The World.

    Newbie in Ocala FL - a few thoughts

    Ocala is the self-proclaimed Horse Capital of the World! I'm sure other places will take issue with that. That's another discussion for another time. Recently retired and bought a Mavic Air 2. I'll be flying to capture aerial photography - for my own enjoyment not for profit. I'm planning to...
