Community Reviews

The Mini 5 Pro stands out as a compact upgrade for aerial shooters, with the 1 inch sensor and strong image quality drawing the most excitement. It is also seen as a meaningful step up from the Mini 3 Pro, while the Mini 4 Pro already covers much of the same ground for less. The main concerns are US warranty and service uncertainty, plus customs and availability issues for units shipped from China. Remote ID and sub 250 gram registration rules also look murky depending on battery setup and region, making this a better fit for buyers who can navigate the gray areas.

  • people who already own the Mini 4 Pro controller and batteries and mainly want to upgrade the drone because commenters said this can be a good deal when you're not rebuying the whole setup.

  • recreational flyers who are trying to stay under 250g and only fly for fun because one commenter said you won't have to register if you plan to fly recreational only and the drone is under 250g (with conditions).

  • buyers who want to rely on extra protection through Amazon payment because a commenter said you're covered for at least a year when you use an Amazon credit card.

  • buyers in the US/UK who are counting on DJI service and warranty support because commenters said DJI service is not applicable/available in the US anymore and that China-origin units can be held up at customs with limited ability to get replacement parts or drones.

  • people who want to add DJI Refresh Care after purchase because commenters said Refresh Care can't be added post-sale (including cases where a new DJI Mini 4K account wouldn't allow it).

  • buyers who need easy care-refresh logistics in their home country because one commenter warned that care refresh may require shipping the drone back to Japan (and they had to rely on Allstate coverage).

  • buyers who are worried about parts availability for repairs because a commenter said their RSR Pro repair was pending for a long time due to unavailable parts, and they wouldn't trust repairs or reissues anymore.

  • people who want a guaranteed sub-250g "no-permit-required" situation in the US/UK because commenters said some countries are not certifying the Mini 5 as sub-250g unless using certain battery setups, and that if it's not certified you may need a license/permit and could be in a grey area with warranty/service limitations.

I will answer on his behalf due to the fact i have purchased several all over within the last 6 months.. ordered from DJI before they listed everything as sold out and it was hung up in customs for 3 months before sending it back to DJI (China).. I have ordered from Japan and South Korea with zero problems.. The ebay store / guy I got if from in South Korea had it delivered to my door step in 3 business days .. Not sure how he / they pulled that off.. I think that Customs is only holding the birds from China.. I spoke with customs several times throughout that 3 months my bird was being detained, and they were surprisingly very rude and very apprehensive to discuss the issues.. Awefull dealing with them.
Thanks 👍

Super tempted if for no other reason than the 1 inch sensor. If I could sell my Mini Pro 3 with the RC (corrected) controller for a decent enough amount, I'd be even more tempted.

It's been well discussed, but for those who are unaware, reports show that the M5Ps are broadcasting RID even with the standard battery (non-plus) battery, at least in certain regions including the US.

This is correct but you still won't have to register if you plan to fly recreational only *and* if your drone weights less than 250g.

Mini 3 Pro isn't compatible with the RC2 controller is it?

I might have messed up my DJI nomenclature. What's the controller with the screen?

Ah, I got it. RC (as opposed to the non-screened RC-N1), not RC2.

US, UK and maybe some other countries are NOT certifying this drone as sub-250gram no-permit-required drone because it only fits that description using certain battery setup, and when it's not certified at all, you need license or permit to fly it and it's in a grey area where it's not officially registered type. And if it's not sold by DJI, there's no warranty, may not get serviced, and you can't send it back to china for service (you can, but can't have it shipped back after that). DJI chose to make it that way because they think they can get away with it.

These have no USA warranty correct? Probably worth the risk for some, DJI drones very reliable.
You are covered for at least a year of you use the Amazon credit card.

I wouldn't be too sure of that. The Amazon CC provides an extension of the official warranty and if there is none, well, there's no extension.
