I ordered a standard battery - Pardon Our Interruption.... It arrived a few days ago and is original DJI. It is easy to tell the difference in weight if you have a standard battery in one hand and the extended in the other. Weight is 249.5g on my postal scale with standard battery, no skin and...

It was just tarrif, US residents claim exemption for taxes. I got Fly More Plus. It was the least expensive way to get the extended batteries. I'll pick up standard batteries for when I need them. It's 320 grams with the bigger batteries.

Tariffs cost me a little over $400, but everything (including the drome cost) was discounted by a 37% exchange rate - there was no tax (I pay 8% in NY), so overall, I paid less than what eBay retailers are asking.

The real question is what you are using it for and what are your travel requirements. I have moved from drones that carried my DSLR to the Mini 5 Pro and couldn't be happier. Sure, there are things the Mavic 4 Pro can do that the Mini cant - the question is do you need it at the additional cost...

I flew it completely stock except for changing obstacle avoidance to bypass and validating RTH settings. It was a calm day, and I flew it in an area I have flown dozens and dozens of times with 7 previous drones. I don't have data to quantify my impressions, but it just seemed zippier.

Interesting, I didn't know it was changeable?! Could be... I'll have to check.

I imported my Mini 5 Pro legally from Canada yesterday and charged everything overnight. I registered the drone, updated the firmware on controller and drone, updated the fly safe database and calibrated the compass and IMU without any issue an hour ago. I was surprised the firmware updates were...

Thank you, will do. I get my drone insurance through State Farm, so country of origin will not be an issue :)

Keeping it on track here... Will there be any issue with a Mini 5 Pro purchased from a DJI authorized Canadian retailer for use primarily in the US regarding: 1) US registration 2) US flying? 3) US warranty? 4) any other considerations I should be thinking of? Thanks all!

I live close enough to Canada to drive up and pick up a Mini 5 Pro. Are there any issues I should be considering having a "Canadian" drone in the US? (Registration, flying, warranty, etc.?)

Sorry, an eBay AI Bot claimed I was trying to sell it outside of eBay (I had to delete a link to a DJI site) and I had to rep[ost it. It is here: DJI MINI 3 PRO / RC CONTROLLER, FLY MORE KIT + MUCH MORE - PERFECT CONDITION! 190021054622 | eBay

Done! Thanks!
