    DJI Neo (a new 149 gram drone)

    Based on the teardown posts for the NEO, they used surface mounting for the components. None of it would be easily replaceable. To replace the flash memory under warranty, DJI would just replace the motherboard. It would be cheaper for them on the labor. Unless the Neo was abused, the memory...

    USB-C mic to record audio with screen recording

    Take a look a the Movo X1-Mini (Amazon link). It has both 3.5mm and USB-C connectors. It also has microphone covers that will reduce wind noise when recording outdoors. You don't need to limit yourself to USB-C only microphones. There are plenty of cheap USB-C to audio adapters on Amazon
