The Mini 5 Pro Fly More Combo stands out as a strong value when the RC2 controller is part of the package, especially versus buying the drone and controller separately or paying more on DJI's site. The RC2 is widely treated as the key upgrade, and the bundle price undercuts separate purchases by a meaningful margin. The main catch is weight, since the drone can land above the 250 gram U.S. registration threshold and DJI notes manufacturing variance that can push it to 254 grams before an SD card. Shipping and seller reliability also deserve caution, with reports of overseas fulfillment, order cancellations, and possible DJI sales restrictions ahead.
people who specifically want the RC2 controller because commenters say the deal is mainly worthwhile if you want RC2, since you can get the Mini 5 Pro without RC2 for under $1000 with immediate shipping.
buyers who are comfortable tying up about $1100 temporarily and can handle delivery/return timing because one commenter says it's a good deal for those willing to have ~$1100 tied up for a bit.
US shoppers who want extra purchase protection because commenters note Amazon customer service is strong and credit card purchases are protected up to $10,000.
buyers who want to avoid seller/order uncertainty because commenters report cancellations (including one saying "something fishy" and others saying their Air Foto orders were canceled for no reason).
US buyers who want to avoid registration because commenters warn this combo weighs over the 250g US limit and may require registration despite being a "Mini."
buyers who are strict about weight compliance because commenters say DJI notes individual Mini 5 Pro units may be up to 254g before adding an SD card, making compliance risky.
people who can't risk customs delays or extra charges because commenters say "Shipped by Amazon" may still come from overseas, and if customs are due there's no easy do-over.
buyers who need a smooth return window if delivery slips into late January because one commenter questions the risk if the drone arrives late January when the return policy is up to January 31.
Yes. The Mini 5 Pro can weigh over the 250g US threshold, and DJI says manufacturing variance can put an individual unit up to 254g before adding an SD card. That makes registration likely even though it is sold as a "Mini."
Yes if you want the controller included, because the RC2 alone is priced around $369-$400. This combo is mainly the better value when you specifically want the RC2, since the drone-only Mini 5 Pro can already be found for under $1000 with immediate shipping.
This combo comes out to about $1,195 out the door, while the $959 drone-only bundle plus a separately bought RC2 totaled $1,444.20. That makes this listing roughly $249 cheaper than splitting the purchase.
Yes. "Shipped by Amazon" does not guarantee a US warehouse, and some orders can arrive directly from overseas with customs or extra-cost risk. A realistic US shipping time is a better sign that it is actually shipping domestically.
It may be affected by a DJI sales ban, with a cited concern around Dec. 23. That makes timing important if you want to buy before any restriction changes.
The standard "within 30 days of delivery" return policy typically takes precedence over a calendar cutoff. That matters if the drone ships late and arrives near the end of January.
If you are trusting a foreign seller with hardly any ratings and a fake phone number with $1100 you have simply not delt with Amazon customer service lately. Even with FBA you are taking your chances. Your money is going to be tied up for a while.
Air foto seems to be a reliable vendor. I'm seeing some discussions on Reddit about them. You can also track the serial number on DJI's website apparently once you get the drone.
No, because it's being shipped from a US warehouse. Any customs would have already been dealt with by the seller

Got it. I saw the long shipping times and assume it's coming from china or Hong Kong.
You don't know that.
Just because it says "Shipped by Amazon" doesn't mean it is guaranteed to ship from a US location. Because Amazon is not always truthful about the shipping location or they change their mind along the way. I have received a few shipments marked "Shipped by Amazon" and not only did they NOT have it in an Amazon warehouse but also when it shipped, it came to me directly from overseas.
It's a risk. Just understand once the product arrives, if customs are due, there's no do over. Someone is going to have to pay it.
If you want to make sure it gets shipped from the US, pick an order that shows a realistic shipping time from a US warehouse. No place in the US takes 2-3 weeks to ship; NO PLACE. It can be argued that products are on the way from China to Amazon warehouse and then to you....but again: You don't know that.
Risk.

Probably the main reason one would consider it at this price/these sellers.
No people are not consider this from these prices and sellers, people are buying here (instead of eBay) because they think they are buying drones from Amazon and a US seller instead of a Chinese/Korean seller.
Makes no difference either way because all drones come from China but people love to shop at Amazon and are scared to shop on eBay; that's what we are dealing with when it comes to the prices.

Amazon has a pretty good customer service and credit card purchases are protected up to $10,000.
I canceled my order. There are new deals sprouting up and so many new sellers. I'm gonna wait for it to be prime shipping. Something fishy is going on.

It's very clear who the seller is and where they are located. It's also clearly stated that the item ships from Amazon.

It's a good deal for those who are willing to have $1100 tied up for a bit, but I don't wanna be in that position. Also, the return policy is for up to January 31. What if the drone arrives late January? Kind of risky.

The "within 30 days of delivery" return policy typically takes precedence.
