The mini includes a very nice hard case.

The Nanuk 909 Case for DJI Mavic Mini, in black, fits the Mavic Mini drone and its standard accessories in a custom foam insert. The hard case is made of impact-resistant, lightweight NK-7 resin and is IP67 waterproof. It features Nanuk's PowerClaw latching system and also supports padlocks. It's also stackable with additional units, allowing for easier storage and transport.

not sure what the photo and video light is for and the backpack seems worthless but now would be a good time to get your hands on a smart controller if you really want one. who knows, maybe it will work with the Mavic Air 2 pretty soon.

As someone who just bought a light 2 days ago, it was something that took me a while to understand why, as well. I would say the biggest use would be to be able to locate it if it is flown out far or for emergency use (flying in a building looking for someone, etc.), but the reason I bought it was purely artistic. Look up drone light painting. There is a video from another thread I'll look for that sold me on it, it's not light painting but it enabled you to light something that would be difficult otherwise from above.

my Chinese is pretty rustic but I understand what a light could be used for, just not sure why it would be placed in a drone bundle since 99% of flyers probably won't use. also I think most people believe it is not legal to fly at night in the usa (even though it is legal for recreational flyers).

True, guess that's just to make the bundle real purdy.

Just noticed that's actually the light I bought.

It is an excellent beginner drone. How do I know?

Because I just got one myself and it is my first drone too. The only downside is that it isn't FPV (first person view) and is overall pretty slow compared to a DIY drone. It's great for flying around, enjoying the scenery and taking scenic photos. It didn't feel slow to me, but I have seen the DIY drone guys fly FPV and they are racing around fast. DJI Mavic Mini is very easy to fly and image quality is great. I highly suggest you get the DJI Refresh for $40, because from what I hear you are very likely to crash your drone, and is accidental damage replacement against a fee. So far, I have not crashed mine though, but I'm pretty careful.

Also, I liked the Fly More package, because it came with extra propellers, propeller guard, a case and 2 extra batteries for a total of 3. The charging bay allows you to charge all 3 batteries sequentially, but at least you don't have to put a battery in the drone, charge it, remove it, insert the other one. Also, battery life is anywhere from 15-30mins, so 3 batteries are nice. However, this package has a nice case included.

The other thing I recommend is motor engine cover to protect it against debree, especially if you fly in a sandy area.
