    Best drone insurance for flyaway and damage? Is there a consensus on which insurance to buy?

    So, as noted in this thread, State Farm doesn't operate in Massachusetts, Allstate is apparently not a good option, what are some of the other drone insurance options I have. Ideally, once again, I'd like to use an insurance company that will reliably process a claim with a refund for both...

    Best drone insurance for flyaway and damage? Is there a consensus on which insurance to buy?

    Yes, the number I called was a central State Farm number to get you to an agent, so this was before I had the opportunity to speak with an agent. Also, someone previous in the thread also found that State Farm doesn't operate in Massachusetts.

    As I mentioned above, I wish that were true, I called them, and they told me they aren't taking new customers, though this may be state specific.

    Well, it turns out that State Farm is not taking any new customers in my state. What's the next best insurance? Allstate?

    Best drone insurance for flyaway and damage? Is there a consensus on which insurance to buy?

    I want the insurance as a backup due to the investment level of $$$s in the drone. I have only had one occurrence where I needed repair work done. That was due to interference that prevented me from making a corrective maneuver while flying close to the tops of trees. I had the drone visually...

    Best drone insurance for flyaway and damage? Is there a consensus on which insurance to buy?

    Hi, I recently ordered a Mavic 4 Pro from an Amazon seller. Given that they give the full 30 day return policy from Amazon itself, which is restated by the vendor; they also said the unit is new and still in the factory sealed box so I finally decided to take the plunge. However, as of yet...

    Mavic 4 not available to US !

    And remember, before all of this happening, there already was a 20% tariff, so the delta is really 10%.

    Most countries already had punitive tariffs on the US. Current negotiations should put us in a BETTER position regarding tariffs on US goods.

    Right now it's only 90 days or until a deal is met, but it could be extended. Note that there was already a 20% tariff on DJI/Chinese drones before the current negotiations.

    Mavic 4 not available to US !

    Is DJI doing a live event for the Mavic 4 Pro? I was unable to find anything, as I did want to watch and see if they have anything to say about when it will be available here.

    I have the long GPS initialization times with the Mavic 3 and Airsense seems to be working fine for me.

    Precision Landing and GPS Drift Issues with the Mavic 3

    I have been following all these guidelines but no luck with precision landing, but I've not flown since I posted my original post in this thread (weather hasn't been good).

    Precision Landing and GPS Drift Issues with the Mavic 3

    I am using a 30" landing pad with a nice H pattern on it, but no joy. I will try a few delayed ascent maneuvers, but I'm also already doing that, but I may not be waiting long enough.

    What's up with Mavic3 and trees ?

    In my case, it clipped small branches while descending due to APAS, I wasn't even touching the controls. This was on the first day I had the drone, so I can't trust it in this scenario, direct experience. Drone's fine otherwise, no damage or even a scratch, but APAS still needs work.
