I reviewed which memory cards DJI recommends and this is shown on the DJI site as the largest card they list.

SanDisk Extreme PLUS A2 128GB microSDXC UHS-I Memory Card with Adapter 4k UHD

The price of this card on the SanDisk site is: $79.99 and expensive on the net.

I checked on ebay and found it for $37.00 with free shipping. The seller has 100% feedback. I placed my order and within 24 hours he shipped it.

The only difference between this card and the one DJI shows is the "A2" instead of "A1" classification. I googled "A1" vs: "A2" it and the A2 has better perfomance than the "A1 from what I can tell.

It appress that the seller has more as his post is still showing them available.

Here is the eBay link for anyone interested: SanDisk Extreme PLUS A2 128GB microSDXC UHS-I Memory Card with Adapter 4k UHD 619659169497 | eBay

I realize some may say that this card is overkill but the way I see it is at $37.00 it not much more than a 64 gb card and a great price.

Get two of these 64GB for $28. Samsung 64GB
 
I use the 128 GB Samsung Evo Select card in all my drones and have never had an issue with them. $24.99 on Amazon with free shipping for Prime members.

Samsung 128 GB Micro SD

Yes but the one I am mentioning i the post is for a 128 GB NOT the 64 GB....
You're probably better off with two 64 cards than one 128. FAT tends to corrupt easy, particularly with bigger storage.
But besides that, if you swap cards each flight and something happens, you'll only lose recordings from the one flight.
 
Thank you for the link. The DJI site says 128 gb as the max. I am curious how the 256 card works for you, do you have a Mavic Air?
I thought I read that the max was 256GB for the Mavic Air so that's why I bought it. It works fine have not had any problems.

Looking at that, it seems like the specs don't actually list a 128gb limit, just that the microSD needs to be class 10 or UHS-1. The mention of 128gb is only part of their list of recommended cards.

I also have been using a Samsung 256gb card in my Mavic Air for over 6 months with no issues.
