correction: $439.99
with costco membership.

Also, some one probably pondering this same thing: Should I get mini 3 instead?

min 3 Pro (with RC-N1 controller, the one without screen) + SD card - bag = $789

that's $449.01 difference, enough to buy one more mini 2

Lose: better sensor, better avoidance, can use larger battery (47 vs 34), etc

I am going to buy this one and use the remote for future upgrade to mini 3.
Depends on your use case. All the minis before the mini 3 pro are basically high-end toys. Essentially flying cell phone cameras. You'll get fine images but nothing special.

Of course, if you never intend to get your commercial drone license (which you'll need for ANY flying that would or could be done for compensation, even if you're not being compensated - yes, this includes filming for your YouTube channel) then there's no reason to splurge on a drone with a better camera. You'll have plenty of fun with one of these, but I'd just get a mini se for $300.

Btw the 47 min flight time is not the standard flight time with the Mini 3 pro, that's with the more expensive extended batteries that push the weight of the drone into registration-required weight.

And, of course, you can't actually buy the mini 3 pro and have it right now.. they aren't shipping until closer to July which is half the summer in some parts of the country!
Conversely, save $450 and learn to fly the right way instead of relying on obstacle avoidance.

You have to maintain line-of-sight with your drone while flying, no reason you should hit things unless you're not paying attention. Beginners should be learning in a large, open field, with nothing to hit for hundreds of yards.

I never use obstacle avoidance and I fly a 4 lb drone.

You were in too much of a rush to post this from the other deal thread. The price is $439 before $100 shop card. Slightly off.

Shop card promo is online only. So if you don't have a Costco CC now you probably can't get one in time to use it.

Those who (pre)ordered in the first few days can expect it to ship out in another 10 days or so. It won't be readily available for purchase for a while though, given the demand.

or just go into a costco find a friend, give them $30 and have them buy a $25 card for you, then use it online for purchase. You can use any credit card for the remainder. Then use or sell the $100 card

Does Costco price match promos like this? I just bought one about 37 days ago

Nevermind I didn't fully read the promo

If you bought one at Costco within the past 90 days, you can return it and then buy with this deal and save $100. I never could understand why they don't just give a refund for the difference or in this case a $100 gift card beyond 30 days but they don't care if you return it, Crazy policy. In addition you get a new warranty started.

For beginners, the sensors are worth the extra $449.

If not buy DJI refresh.
