Mavic 4 Pro Fly More Combo In Stock at B&H?

How about FCC?
I presume it is. I will check next time I fly it but I just looked again at an image of the bottom of the box and it says that the product complies with all FCC rules for both the drone and the controller, with two FCC numbers. It also says that "This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules"
Also the bottom has two different warnings in 12 different languages, to me it seems like all these drones are a global version, and the country codes are for the right cord , some sales thing with DJI or a warranty coverage thing. Not a feature or performance change. If there was some different drone inside I think it would have to say something more than just a country code.
 
when I get mine hopefully soon, I'm going to activate it right away and check both the FCC and RID then report my results... (I will do the firmware updates first to both the controller and the M4P)
Appreciate it. How will we know if a sw update delivered these updates unless we compare both the before and after to see if there are any changes? I don't see anything in the release notes but they don't always tell the full story.

I think we've determined that all boxes are the same regardless of the two different drones that are inside. Since the box is a marketing tool, it doesn't have to be 100% accurate. In this case, if you are a Korean buyer and you live in Korea and you buy the KR sku and the box your drones come in has FCC and RID all over it, not going to matter to you. If I were DJI, there's no way I would print up separate boxes just to remove that language for KR buyers. I would simply print the relevant information on the sticker and leave it at that. I suspect it is but for us to have solid proof, we need to focus on the drone only for results.

It was not a software update. I tried it at the original 100 FW and it was transmitting RID and transmission levels were the same at 110db. Several threads and hundreds of posts on this concern that just doesn't exist. At this time there is no of evidence that the KR's are any different other than the KR on the box and no US cord. It's all been speculation with no facts. All M4P's are created equal.

Ok sorry I didn't see a single post where the user pointed out the sw version and then tested it for RID (or FCC) + date and said it was detected. I've seen a lot of other stuff but I haven't see that. But I don't see everything so if you happen to know where you saw it, please let me know.

Again, I've seen "I took it out of the box and it had RID" and I've seen "I never performed a sw update and it had RID" and I've seen "I was forced to update the sw but I have RID" and similar but I've never seen the sw version + RID/FCC + date statement except in this post so thanks for pointing that out.

What we are doing at this point is trying to establish a reason why someone would make these claims. It would be nice to know why. It's not an absurd claim such as if someone said the third camera doesn't work on drones from Japan, we wouldn't bother with that one. Again, if you sold your drone and the buyer came back and said it doesn't do FCC, what would you do/say?

There is no sticker saying that the drone inside is different than any other, just the KR designation which could mean anything else more to do with marketing or more likely warranty coverage, no US warranty but one for Korea.
I do not see how they could print all that on the box and then not put an advisory sticker explaining the change from what is printed.

I did sell one of my KR's. If he claimed this I would ask the same that I am asking anyone here. Prove it, show me evidence it is not in FCC. So far nothing, all speculation and hearsay. I am fortunate to have one from Japan and can compare the two. The 3rd camera works!😄

The sticker clearly indicates the contents in the box have something different than every other M4P. Despite the boxes all being identical, the sticker is a good way to indicate the difference from an inventory or logistical perspective, certainly not having to do with the warranty (we know that for sure but there are only 2 types of stickers but there are dozens of different warranties). It's not an advisory sticker, it meant for shipping and sales related stuff.

So again, the sticker is not used to explain away the changes, only to indicate there is a change. For example, if you are a dealer in KR and you get a M4P and you scan the barcode to take it into your store inventory, it's going to beep if that upc doesn't match. The KR dealer doesn't care for what reason but only that there is a mismatch and he needs to return/exchange that lot. He doesn't need to know why. The sticker means nothing to the ordinary customer but us folks on the forum have a way of decoding it, it wasn't me that pointed this out so I leave it to someone else to explain it fully.

The sticker does not clearly say anything to the consumer. If one notices the sticker, there is the KR after the description. From what I can find on line, it seems that South Korean drones have to comply with some specific South Korean frequency regulations and laws, one of those is the automatic switching between FCC and CE. There also may be some software adding specific no fly zones for sensitive areas in South Korea. The
I still think the newer drones switch on activation by GPS to where you are. The notice from that vendor may have been for older drones sold in the past, where switching was more involved.I just checked the transmission page on mine and it is for sure FCC, it is also transmitting RID. So I see no issue with mine made on 7/25.
