Anyone else waiting on batteries? UGH

[Elton Hammonds]

I got an email from DHL saying my extra battery, which I ordered just after the launch event, was released from Chinese customs hold yesterday.

Like many here, I didn't order the "fly more combo" because I knew I'd just throw the bag away, so I ordered extra batteries. When I added everything to the cart (the drone last week Thursday along with the batteries) it advised that I should separate the orders to get the drone faster, so I did that.

Well, I got my drone Monday night, and with checking my battery order it went out Monday and had an estimated delivery of today (Friday). A check today of my tracking # shows they shipped my extra batteries via DHL and they are still in China!! WTF!! They have been sitting in customs with no progress.

It's been extremely frustrating only having one battery! I know I should have just ate the price of the bag and went with the combo, but I don't see why they wouldn't have spare batteries ready to go after the long wait for the product launch and with them knowing that everyone is going to need them.

Today I flew for 25 minutes, went to the car to charge, and by the time the battery was charged (an hour or so) it was raining. I don't know how anyone could own one of these with just one battery!!

Isn't the bag essentially free?

I didn't order the "fly more combo"

I didn't order any of the accessories as a package. From experience with my MPP I knew the entire package had (for me) things I would not use.I ordered an extra two batteries, the charging hub and two sets of props.
I ordered them on the M2P announcement date after I ordered the M2P. I didn't want to take a chance the order would be delayed so I ordered the as two separate orders. The M2P arrived on Monday the 27th. I checked the status of the accessories at noon today, it was listed as being in Las Vegas with DHL. I went out in the afternoon and when I stopped to pick up the mail there was a notice the USPS had tried to deliver but no one was home to sign. Grrrrrrrr.
Now it will be Tuesday, did I say Grrrrrrrrrrr

I just received my batteries, and charging dock from DHL here in the USA (Chicago).I ordered them during the event at the same time I ordered the drone.

Ordered a Flymore and an extra batt from B&H during the release video broadcast. I was the 1st or 2nd order. Received the M2P on Friday, but no batts yet.

I'm in the UK - Ordered Battery & Props on the event day (separate order to the MP2 & Fly More- both of which I've received).

DJI order shows payment cleared but no movement since then. I think all non-US orders are out of stock,

I've found props in stock at Drones Direct DJI Mavic 2 Low-Noise Propellers CP.MA.00000059.01 | Drones Direct with so I've ordered some next day delivery.

I don't think anybody has batteries for another month :-(

I just got my separate battery, which was ordered with the drone and fly more kit an hour after the launch event, yesterday by DHL.

I cancelled my battery order as I thought someone would have them in stock. I think the Fly More is a waste of money for me as I am going from a Mavic Air to this. Actual flight time feels about the same with two batteries as three with the Air. So one extra battery is enough and Btw it’s cheaoer to buy another charger so both charge at the same time. Now to find a battery or just wait for my $13 credit to go through then order.
