Deal Details
Impossible to find for MSRP so thought slickdeal.

Two sellers:
Hibikin-US
MUQQ

I've purchased from these sellers before. Will probably go quick; if different price/different seller then it's sold out.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F6XJ7W9M

Mini 5 pro is legal:
https://uasdoc.faa.gov/listDocs/RID000002581

Good Video RE Probable "Ban":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jx7Lp3SeAWs
TLDR: if you purchase before December, you can still fly your drone; just can't buy new ones (probably)

Lastly, you can add 3rd party warranty through Asurion if you want. Just check the box for 2 years or 3 years of accidental damage coverage.

I'm confused. It's literally available on DJI's website right now for $739. I was able to add to cart.

Edit: Nevermind, I didn't realize when I searched through Google, it took me to the Singapore DJI site.

This drone isn't available in the US thru DJI. That's why its a decent deal for those of us in the US.

Unfortunately it looks like no one is buying this particular drone package. I can only guess why. Because they would prefer one of the other packages at a similar closer-to-MSRP price but it's obvious the base package is being promoted while the more valuable packages are way overpriced. Also this one only comes with one battery and it's nearly impossible to find extra batteries (even though the Mavic 3 and 4 batteries might work). and then there is the screen remote; nobody wants to use their phone with the remote in this package. This deal has been available for a few days and the fact that it didn't sell out in hours speaks volumes. Not that it isn't good but people are waiting for a better deal on a bigger package. Both the base and the base combo don't seem to be working well.

the 1" sensor is a big deal here, but the exact drone you get may require modifications to reliably be under 250g.

There are a lot of good videos on the drone ban but this isn't one of them. Instead, check out 51drones.

And, just to clarify, the likely upcoming ban is not likely the step which will stop you from flying....regardless when you buy the drone. Meaning if find a way to buy one in January, you can still fly. There's no plan to pass a rule that says "No flying drones purchased after December." So far, this ban only affects the importation and sale which usually means private sales are still allowed and obviously overseas sellers aren't going to obey. I guess customs will have to get to work. Will it be illegal for a US resident to buy one....probably not.

Oh, and these drones have no US warranty so like you said, if you want insurance, Asurion is an option.

I personally don't find 51 drones a good source. By the time it gets to 51 drones, it's just stuff that's been regurgitated a million times already. I read the doc and interpreted the language for myself. The video I shared was just the closest to my position and actually shares the source and language which most of the talking heads (like 51 drones) do not.

If FCC authorization is retroactively revoked, then stores cannot legally sell equipment without a valid FCC ID. You can get around it, sure, but then it would be black market, not grey market (currently).

There are nuances and timeframes but I just wanted to get information out there the best I can that is easily digestible and generally accurate.

based the MSRP off the USD price in the Canada DJI Store

Thanks for confirming what I said. Dec 23rd is putting DJI on the covered list and there is no impact on FCC ID for drones like the Mini 5 Pro (in this thread) which will continue to be sold and flown well after Dec 23rd.

That's something in 51drones that most may have missed.

Your listing is 2 days late, this sale started few days ago and....it's still there right now (Amazon plays games with the links sometimes). Nobody wants this. I bought it earlier as a backup drone and canceled. I have the Plus package. Not that it isn't a good drone but it's not a hot deal.

No I'm right, you just don't know how to use the website.

Amazon doesn't sell DJI drones.

There are 3rd party sellers that you can buy DJI drones from but Amazon controls what you see on their own website.

For example, if you look at the link now, you might think the price is now $1051 (the red arrow in my screenshot) but the item is still available from that same seller Hibikin-US for $759 shown with the blue arrow and the blue box.

Amazon sucks you in with the low price offering, gets you to post the link, and then they switch sellers so the same link takes you to the higher priced item and the low priced one gets buried.

Smart people like me know the difference; the gullible get taken advantage of.

It's going in and out of stock. As of right now, it's sold out again. You'll know it's a restock because the delivery date will be pushed back another 1-2 weeks from kensteele's screenshot. There have already been 3 restocks from my initial post.
So if anyone is interested just keep checking.

It's not going in and out of stock. Amazon is playing stupid games with the pricing and the quantities. It's a scam. Nothing new about this.
