Sounds like Apple Genius bar... Them: "I've never heard of that problem before..." Me: But there's a 900 page thread on the internet about it Them: Blank stare

I've bought off AliExpress before, they're fine but these days for me at least it's cheaper to buy locally. Only reason to use them is if DJI don't sell officially in your local market..

All the stimulus checks have dried up, DJI might have to sweeten the deal a little more...

Buy first, regret later. Don't tell the wife

One thing to note if you do fly 1000m or even 500m up is the drone uses an awful lot of power just to climb to that altitude so be conservative with your flight up there, also watch for the winds as they can be a bit much and overwhelm your little quadcopter..

I'm throwing out my Mavic 3 and buying the pro instead

Said to have a 3x and 7x, presumably to cover the gap between 4x and 7x on the original Mavic 3, does that mean it'll have total greater zoom than the original? (4x7x3=84x?)

Will probably top the M3s price too...

Yeah agree, I think the 28x utility is more in S&R or just exploring/scouting around than for actual recording.

Leave them a 1 star review on Yelp

Wouldn't be surprised if the Ukraine war has some part in the shortage. The M2 series seems to b quite popular indeed.

That's the nature of technology mate, prices go down over time. News stuff comes out and puts even further downward pressure on price. DJI is not exempt from this.

Just wait until black Friday and get the full Mavic 3 at discount

I think DJI should have just lowered the price of the M3 rather than releasing a whole new model less the telelense. It's already a year old and due for price reduction? Surely the tele lense isn't worth more than a couple of bucks at best? That's about the only feature that's sets the two apart...

Just take out the propellers if you wanna make it a bit lighter 😜
