Same price from DJI via eBay [ebay.com], all though both are refurbished by DJI so it really doesn't matter as far as where you buy it from. Just thought I'd share the eBay link for those with eBay $

Not very slick. This thing is pretty big and takes awhile longer (compared to most other drones) to set up and is $1000 for a refurbished drone that is almost 5 years old. Unless you need dual operator mode, I'd easily go with a Mavic 2 for portability and a quicker setup not to mention newer accessories like the goggles and controller aren't compatible with the Inspire 1 v2.

Yes, with lots of battery swapping

I own one of these but would recommend against purchasing because the batteries are getting hard to find. The last time I checked, DJI and all of its authorized sellers were sold out or back ordered. The only place to get batteries was through third party Amazon sellers or eBay at a significant markup. DJI does not have a current drone in production that uses this battery. Standard battery flight time is about 15 minutes, and the batteries are prone to failure, so you will definitely need more than one.

That and 10 eBay bucks today. Must activate prior to purchase though.

Yea, I have the Phantom 3 and rarely use that in favor of my smaller Mavic Air.

For those that are on the fence (I have a Mavic 2 Zoom still don't have 107c though) https://www.reddit.com/r/dji/comm...vic_2_pro/
I've also flown the mavic 2 pro. I felt compared to Phantom 4 Pro there were too many compromises on picture quality and the zoom is really a cool new feature. The Inspire offers that same features (with upgraded camera)
TLDR; Inspire 1 v2 shows its age with flight time and those hard to find batteries are going to be needed and probably an additional 1500 investment for x5 to get the good camera.

WARNING - WARNING - WARNING

Be careful of what you wish for... These birds are highly trained and if they see enough battery onboard, like every other loyal pigeon, they all fly back home (China!). You don't believe me, go find that long-lasting battery!!!
