    DJI’s Trade-up is a joke

So, on average, a product that retails for $2,000 should cost around $670 to manufacture. So considering handling and testing costs, it is...

    State Farm Insurance

    My Mavic Air developed a mind of it's own and flew off never to be see again. I had insured it through State Farm at the price I paid for the drone and the fly more package. They sent me a check for the full amount. And no, they did not cancel me. I used the check to purchase a new M2Z which...

    I screwed up - however
