    "Get a mini 5 Pro, sell the mini 3 Pro?" Revisited with my own situation

    Seems simple if you look at the data. Finances are not the issue. Will newer technology serve you better than what your have? If yes, then get the latest and most appropriate for your needs. Want not to saddle wife with burden of your stuff? Then dump your excess stuff now; it has outlived...

    Get a mini 5 Pro, sell the mini 3 Pro?

    Using the word "may" doesn't offer any prediction as it only implies something that might, or might not, happen; it only indicates a possibility of something happening, or not happing. So, base a buy decision needs, or wants, rather than future market possibilities.

    Get a mini 5 Pro, sell the mini 3 Pro?

    The used re-sale value will continue to go down the longer you keep it. You could just donate it to someone who willing and able to learn about flying drones. It would be good educational experience.

    Tell me why I need a Mini 5 Pro

    You need the mini 5 Pro when your emotions tell you that you need the latest mini technology. It's not a difficult decision.

    Should I Buy A Back UP

    IF you can't be without a working drone for 2 weeks or less then having backup drone is really important. If you only have one drone then that one would be your backup drone, so purchase aa new, more advanced drone. Don't purchase a drone which is older or less capable then your current...

    Tell me why I need a Mini 5 Pro

    Of course you don't need a new drone. On the other hand, if you want a new drone just get it. It's YOUR decision only.

    DJI Mini 5 Pro in Amazon. Is this legit?

    If it's the buyer's first drone it's a beginner's drone. Unless a seller term is technically correct, it's OK; the opinions are just marketing fluff.

    Cropping - Process or Just Wing It?

    I suspect that you rook the photo with the intention of being an extreme wide angle panorama picture with distorted lines and no obvious focal point. So, why do you feel the need to crop it to be anything other than the panorama? If you really believe there should have been a focal point, then...

    Guarantee won´t cover it

    when exactly did the damager occur? Did you purchase it new? Who was the seller? Did you examine all of the flight logs to prove that you had no in-flight accidents? Do you have pictures of other angles to show damage? Exactly where and how have you stored it? Did you take it travelling...

    What to get? Mavic 4 Pro or Mavic 3 Pro

    Doesn't seem like a difficult decision. My rational is to always go forward; not backward. So, go for the newer technology, and not old used technology. If another drone really is important, then find a way to pay for it, or maybe another drone really isn't important.

    How to shave few grams off the Mini 5 Pro?

    Why does it really matter? Is your scale certified for accuracy? Will the government approve of your own weight meassurement?

    Canadian Registration?

    If DJI claims <250 g I would accept that; there is no need to weigh the drone. Do you ever check a consumer product to verify the weight or volume stated on the label is correct? If you see no need to verify a consumer product labeling quantity why would you think you have a responsibility to...
