    Question about Tariffs on Drone from South Korea

    Since the loss of the $800 exemption I do not think it matters what country you order from, if the vendor says they will pay the tariff, it seems like they do. If they say you are responsible, you will, just like I had to. The only difference in the tariff amount is the country of origin that is...

    Question about Tariffs on Drone from South Korea

    Yes it just means it cleared customs, if there is a duty you have to pay would depend on the vendor you bought it from. Some say they will pay the tariff fee, the final price you pay is it, others do not say that and say the buyer is responsible for all duties and tariffs. All the items I...

    Batteries/drone ban/tariffs conundrum

    repair if possibles seems like a good idea, but for me I have never been a fan of non oem batteries

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

    I gave away my Mini 3 to my son-in-law when I upgraded to the Mini 4, was going to keep the Mini 4 as a backup to the Mini 5 when I got it. Changed my mind and sold the Mini 4 and got another Mini 5 as my backup, because of the uncertainty next few years will bring. I also sold my Air 3 and...

    When is enough batteries

    For my flying needs three of each is probably fine. I am just trying to future protect them, buying enough now, in case they become more difficult to either buy new drones or batteries for these as they get older. Same reason I have two of each drone.

    When is enough batteries

    I was thinking more in the line if less cycles per battery for a longer life

    When is enough batteries

    I now have two Mini 5 Pros, one as the backup and 2 Mavic 4 Pros with again one as the backup. I have 5 plus batteries and 3 standard batteries for the Mini 5s and 7 Batteries for the Mavic 4s, I think that should be good even if they get harder to find, or do I still need more.

    Can you register your Mini 5 Pro with FAA?

    I now have 5 plus batteries and 3 standards for my main Mini 5 and the backup. When I ordered the backup Mini 5 I went with the most basic kit thinking that I already had an extra RC 2 controller and I would just use the plus batteries. At first I did not think I wanted any standard batteries...

    DJI Mini 5 Pro from South Korea

    I have bought from them and I think you are reading the EBAY notice that is on all vendors pages, it looks they are out of stock on the version you want but the others still say this lowering in the add

    Can you register your Mini 5 Pro with FAA?

    I was a able to register both my Mini 5 Pro Fly More Plus and the just plain Mini 5 Pro with the standard battery, both came from Korea. It might be a misprint meaning the opposite that the Plus has to registered. I would ask them what they mean before one buys from them.

    If You Really Wanted the Mavic 4 Pro:

    I do not believe any of the US sellers are not buying their drones from DJI direct but in fact are doing the same thing that those on this forum have done by buying their inventory from other countries. Someone on another post mentioned their new Mavic from B&H was from Ukraine.

    If You Really Wanted the Mavic 4 Pro:

    Some of those Korean Ebay sellers will in their add say they will cover the tariff fee for US buyers. I have bought batteries fro US Drone supply with no issues but not a drone

    Cautionary tale for DJI replacement service.

    You could say they are lying or they are afraid of never working out the issues with US Customs by putting the blame on them. This administration takes no responsibility for any of these actions, so all of thes companies are very careful on what the say is the reason for these issues. I find it...
