The shipping weight is only 0.3125lb, it won't be the Fly More package...

Cool, good for you. Hopefully, there will be a whole slew of these reports soon!

Congrats! What time was your order placed?

CivEngPE · Oct 19, 2016

The tracking info shows it was shipped from Kent, WA ....

I don't want to burst your bubble, Fplvert, but the package they are sending you is under 1/3 of a pound according to DHL. DHL eCommerce Tracking

ATXdrone · Oct 19, 2016

But I hope the DHL is wrong and you are getting your Mavic Pro... I'd rather see the good things happen!

Sorry man, you are getting a consolation prize.

eBay sellers have to ship something within a certain amount of time.

Apparently some people enjoy being deceived.

Nope...not me. I'm just glad I found out about the Mavic Pro before pre-ordering the Karma.

Yeah, I noticed that.

Then again, maybe it should be 3.125 lbs.

Typo, yes?

DefaultIT · Oct 19, 2016

I've seen reports elsewhere of people receiving pictures of the item from eBay sellers to satisfy their shipping window requirements...and one other of a single battery showing up in a very large box. Be prepared for something other than a Mavic

that's bad

I hate waiting so I will pay more now than to pay less later. Of course, there are limits to that.

But...I used to be a HUGE MINI hobbyist several years ago. Over that time, I had 4 MINIs, spent hours a day on MINI forums, I attended several MINI runs and get-togethers across the country, and I even went to the 50th birthday party for Mini/MINI in England.

I ordered a MINI after configuring it on their site's configurator. I went crazy waiting for the 4 months it took, and I spent a lot of time on MINI forums. I also did what I could to track the ship carrying it from the port in Southampton, through the Panama Canal and to the port near Port Hueneme in California. I even watched the Panama Canal cameras to capture the ship going through the locks.

FINALLY, after the 4 month wait from configuring/ordering to pickup day, all of the stress and ill feelings of the wait disappeared when I finally took possession.

So, just as with my MINI, your ordered Mavics will eventually arrive, and your stress over the wait will be forgotten as you are gesturing to your Mavic to take selfies(dronies) with your friends or family members.
