Not a bad price. I got the fly more combo for $50 off. If you're looking for just the drone it's not bad since you're basically getting the accessories for free. The landing pad is about $12+, the range extender is $7, and the memory card is about $10-$15. The rest I wouldn't use.

Unfortunately/fortunately mine comes in tomorrow from Best Buy. A little easier to return if I have issues with it.

Is this bundle a better deal compared to the best buy 499 fly more combo. Got it for 450+tax after a 10 % coupon on my account. It does have a 15% restocking fee though if returning opened.

Just a heads up: if you are any kind of government employee the Apple store is giving 10% off. Might work for veteran's and retired govt also. That puts the fly more kit at $450. You really want the fly more with the extra batteries. https://slickdeals.net/f/13707749-ymmv-dji-mavic-mini-fly-more-combo-450-us-federal-state-and-local-govt-employees-only?v=1&src=SiteSearch

That said, I reserved one at the Apple store but ended up cancelling in favor of the Parrot Anafi. BB had the Anafi kit with three batteries on sale for $599 ($699 now) the whole month before Christmas. You get lossless zoom, follow me, real 4k with 100Mbps, manual camera settings, 21MP cam with RAW, camera that looks up, no props ever in the video, and USB C charging but you give up ~1.5 minutes of real life flight time and at the time $100 (now $200.)

How does the mini compare to the spark? Is it a new name?

Looks like same accessories included with the Fly More combo for $100 more.

Definitely worth the extra money for the batteries and case alone

Totally different drone. Lots of YouTube vids comparing the mini and spark

No they don't. It's a different model. The Mavic Mini fly more combo includes 2 extra batteries (3 total) and each are supposed to get 25+ minutes of flight time
