    Pre-Order & Shipping Thread

    Forgive me if this might sound like a stupid question, but you are doing the short press followed by long press to turn on the battery right?

    I used my credit card via PayPal (my CC wouldn't work directly on the DJI payment page). There was no additional charge, and I didn't think about it but I suppose there's the built-in buffer there if you are worried about sharing your CC info with DJI directly.

    As did mine (FMC)... Ordered Oct 17, shipped Nov 3, arrived Nov 6 to Vancouver, Canada.

    Pre-Order & Shipping Thread

    I think all orders to Canada are shipped via DHL, USA are shipped via FedEx... Is your FMC being sent from China or a North American warehouse? Edit: It's been updated, expected delivery is this Monday, Nov 6!

    Pre-Order & Shipping Thread

    Just got tracking notification now - shipping via DHL from Shenzhen, China (to Canada). Doesn't say the expected arrival date, but the chat rep mentioned that it should take about 3 days.

    I ordered the FMC on 10/17... Payment status has changed this morning from authorized to confirmed. Still not shipped but assuming that will come very soon now.

    Ya, but it appears that a couple people who ordered the FMC on Oct 17 have started receiving shipping notifications... So hopefully things start moving now.

    Why hasn't yours shipped yet? It sounds like USA orders from Oct 17 are shipping now? I ordered Oct 17 from Canada, hopefully mine ships soon.

    Same here... I am in Canada, paid using PayPal and mine still says "authorized" and DJI chat said Nov 7 (but they basically just added 15 business days to the order date, so I don't think they actually have any actual supply knowledge).

    I hope so, but given the prior evidence with the original MP release, and the fact that pre-orders of the MPP FMC still haven't shipped, have me a bit concerned!

    Anyone order/receive the platinum batteries? I'm still waiting for FMC, but if I can order the MPP + 2 batteries separately and get it within 1-2 weeks I'd rather do that, esp since I have a vacation to Bali coming December 1 that I want to use it for!

    New "soon to be" Mavic Platinum (previous P4 owner) pilot here... I ordered the "Fly more combo" on 10/17 as well at about 1pm EST (the afternoon the sales were re-opened). My status is still in "Payment Success"/Authorized. So it appears that only people who ordered the bird itself last week...

    DJI Mavic Pro Platinum - is it worth it?

    New poster here! This is my story... TLDR skip to next paragraph. I bought a Phantom 4 last year on release day, only to find out 6 months later the P4 Pro comes out with some major upgrades, in addition to the Mavic. I sold it earlier this year in anticipation of getting the "new" Mavic Pro...
