I decided to buy a Mavic Pro drone - I'm brand new to drones. I was going to buy new from DJI or Best Buy, but I just found out a co-worker/friend has one and told me he would sell it for a good price. I am curious what questions I should be asking before buying a used drone? I originally didn't want a used one because I'm new to drones and don't know the questions to be asking and just felt more comfortable buying new... but since I know this guy, I feel confident he wouldn't hide anything from me. Nonetheless, I should still be asking SOME questions... such as - have you ever had any crashes? did you buy it brand new? etc... What are other questions I should ask?? I'm guessing I should get a ton of information incase I choose to sell it myself one day and need more info. He also told me he would give me some lessons since he is rather experienced, so that's a nice perk of buying a used drone from someone I know too.
Also, I'm not sure what the "good price" might be... new on DJI's site is $899, so maybe a used drone from a buddy would be $750-$800? We'll see...
