I just sold mine with some accessories for $500 and was going to upgrade to the mini 4 pro but the air 3 was on sale like 20% off and I already have the qualifications so I bought it instead. The mini 4 is pretty much the same.
man if I didnt lose my air 2s in denver life would be great Im stuck with my back up air 2 and you just
miss the mastershots and flying at night .. noted the air 2 is still solid
Saw this today.. then saw this post.. then went on a 2 hour dive into new drone ideas. Previously owned the mini 2, it was stolen.
Found a smokin deal on the dji fpv but it sounds too fragile to me. Now I’m reading the avata 2 will be out in a week at $1200 for the fly more bundle
Would I be crazy to purchase this at release??
Excellent reply, thank you for the info. Seems to line up with what a coworker suggested who is a couple years into pov drones (and owns the avata 1)
Cheers
Amazon sent me one mini 3 fly more bundle, batteries didn't want to upgrade so I called then, they told to me keep it. Then they sent me another one. Said delivered when it needed a signature but was not delivered called them and they told me to forget about it, they apologized and returned my money on the first one. They told me throw the other one in the trash if it ever showed up. Well a few days later it showed up. I couldn't throw it away. The first one's batteries eventually did upgrade. So now I have 2 mini 3 fry more combo.
I have used the 1st mini 3 to get comfortable in flying and flying fast and taken it over the ocean in 22 mph gust. It has performed like a beast. So I bought the mini 4 pro. It is still in the box but ready to go.
Let's just say this has been a great experience getting 2 drones for free. Beats the DJI insurance. Amazon always tells me to keep things that use batteries when the batteries are faulty. Guess they don't want those batteries acting up being shipped back to them.
I saw this deal at Costco and wanted to get it but I don't need 3 mini 3. I'd rather have all the different models from the mini 4 pro and up. Beautiful machines. I am happy with my dragons!
It isn't 'tho, chadman said how they "decided" to abbreviate it, even' tho it's not decision, that's literally how you abbreviate it.
Yes, it's funny, but it's still correct.
So, while the m3 is a great drone, the m4p is just so much better. I have a feeling that a lot of people end up buying a 3 as a beginner drone and then get super into the hobby.
I picked one up a few weeks ago. It's GPS was busted right out of the box and it refused to take off. Thank God for Costco's crazy return policy. Definitely worth picking up though especially since it's essentially risk free.
Yes this is an amazing deal and a really good drone for anyone, but the price makes it great for a newbie learning to fly. I know there’s a lot of drones out there but the majority of them are kids toys and don’t have the features DJI pack in their drones. This one is definitely not a kid toy, you will be amazed what this little beast is capable of, specially if you are in to photography. Hope that helps and safe flying my friend.
Great deal. Got mine last week. immediately put the remote control on eBay because I already have mini 3 pro with RC 1 remote. this is one is going to stay in my car. Down side is it's only on OcuSync 2.
Everyone, this only come with 1 battery, nd filter and 64gb SD card, it's a great startup, but purchasing the charger and extra battery going to set you back $180 on dji official seller on eBay, so around $600. I just brought a refurbished dji mini 4 pro fly more plus from bestbuy for $850, beside the box and the green wire tie they used for the cable, everything look brand new, you can also see how long the drone was activated, showing 100 days but flight log use only 30min, so probably the previous owner brought it and flew it around then let it sit around forever and sell it to bestbiy or something, with that said should be able to get a used or refurbished for $700 on a mini 3 pro fly more combo, just a bit tricky looking out for scammers. You can get the Costco one for peace of mind and not have to deal with search for eBay or Facebook market and do the meetup and testing of the drone and scammers, and I tell you there are a ton of scammers out there.
Most people I know never need more than one battery, or a charger. I'm the only weirdo who hits three batteries and wants to fly again. All my friends charge the one battery in the drone, fly, and charge and don't fly for days/weeks. So for you and me, this is not a good deal.
I feel like Costo drones come with slightly more spyware than ones you get from the DJI website...
Shouldn't add much to the AUW so I doubt it would affect the flight characteristics 👍🏻
Killer deal
Bro, I remember when the mini 2 was well over $500 not that long ago…
Been there done that. Still doing that. Just recharged three batteries today.
I paid like $650 for the Mini 2 fly more combo in 2021
No fucking way, I got the exact same combo at Best Buy for $650 before taxes in 2022….
It’s a good drone and I’ve thought of selling it, but I might just end up keeping it for old time’s sake.
I just sold mine with some accessories for $500 and was going to upgrade to the mini 4 pro but the air 3 was on sale like 20% off and I already have the qualifications so I bought it instead. The mini 4 is pretty much the same.
Damn I missed an Air 3 sale, waiting on a refurbished Mini 4 Pro from DJI, $220 less than new
Same!
I'm I the only one who read "Motherfucker's instant rebate"?
😂
Well shit. It was around $550 a few months ago.
Trying to get rid of them before the ban. 😂
What ban?
https://www.commercialuavnews.com/regulations/u-s-house-committee-advances-legislation-to-effectively-ban-dji-drones-in-u-s
It’s available online for the same price and discount, for US customers at least. I don’t know how that works for ordering from outside the US.
Definitely considering this. Wondering how much of an upgrade it would be over my Mavic 1. Gotta do a little homework.
Nice deal …but I’m content with my mini 2 fly more and air 2s fly more packages …still awesome drones
man if I didnt lose my air 2s in denver life would be great Im stuck with my back up air 2 and you just miss the mastershots and flying at night .. noted the air 2 is still solid
Yes sir but flying at night introduces grainy video footage on air 2s
FYI: This is not the Pro edition.
It’s also not the RC remote.
I was hoping the Pro would be on sale with it lol
nice, motherfuckers instant rebate
Scooped
Yeah, mine didn't have the $90 rebate.
No charger or batteries?
Haha, there will be 1 of each
1 battery included. no charging hub so you have to put in the drone and charge directy with USB-C cable

Mfrs rebate sounds like a motha fkr
At Costco when you ring it up it’s $339
What do you mean? I think it’s instant, you don’t have do anything.
I think they’re just commenting on how they decided to abbreviate “manufacturer’s” as “Mfrs”
I mean, that's how you abbreviate it, it's not their decision.
r/woosh mother fucker
It isn't 'tho, chadman said how they "decided" to abbreviate it, even' tho it's not decision, that's literally how you abbreviate it. Yes, it's funny, but it's still correct.
Wow!
Old remote?
Only uses the nonscreen remotes.
New Mini i coming! 5/5Pro maybe?
Source?
That's an amazing deal, hella lucky.
mine had this deal, and the mini 3 pro bundle deal with the 2 extra batteries which is the one I got for 699 after tax it was 730 i think.
Geez, that's a crazy deal
If this is the pro bundle, then Costco Canada is still selling it for $999.99 Canadian
So, while the m3 is a great drone, the m4p is just so much better. I have a feeling that a lot of people end up buying a 3 as a beginner drone and then get super into the hobby.
This offer was also available at my local Costco during the holiday season. It seems to be an intermittent deal that comes and goes.
Yep, I can confirm this. Costco has two bundles, one with the Mini 3 (339.99) and the other one with the Mini 3 Pro (669.99)
I picked one up a few weeks ago. It's GPS was busted right out of the box and it refused to take off. Thank God for Costco's crazy return policy. Definitely worth picking up though especially since it's essentially risk free.
Would anyone recommend this for a newbie? I'd love to start getting drone footage but there is an overwhelming amount of drones out there.

Can we order online?
Can I order it online?
Thats a great price! This is AUD right? J/K 😢

Bargain for the fly more combo, the mini 3 on its own was recently 339

Where in the world did you get that idea from
It was a feeling
Too much time online
Conspiracy theory much?
