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.
Has anyone actually had experience with either seller (guessing no) regarding the legitimacy of these or is this all opinion based?

Or... you could look at seller reviews on Amazon, or experiences on Reddit as mentioned earlier.
The reviews are probably not very good to horrible but those 2 vendors are legit in the drone space on Amazon (i.e. it's not a total scam) if that's what you are asking.

Bc no company has ever faked reviews.....for example one has great rating on amazon until you dig through them on amazon and see there are buried 1,2, and 3 star reviews. Im just sick of the its from china its a scam obviously post despite them never working with international sellers. Occasionally someone on a site like this took the time/risk to order and may have a genuine feedback and opinion of the seller. Sorry for asking a legit question that made your likely racist butt hurt so much.
You can already get this mini 5 without the rc2 for less than 1000$ with immediate shipping if you just keep refreshing and checking. This deal is only really good if you want the rc2
Given the potential issue with US registration requirements (and other countries), why couldn't they have just created a battery that weighs about 5 grams less? A web search says that the battery weighs just less than 72 grams for a 36 minute flight time. A 67 gram battery would have about 33.5 minutes of flight time which still seems reasonable.

Yeah it looks like no matter what this drone broadcasts RID. I just cancelled my order for a used like new m5p with regular controller for 920$. It might pop up again for anyone interested. (The last option)

FYI RC2 controller is worth it if u dont have one. Price on a rc2 controller $369-$400.

DJI doesn't care about FCC registration using a sub-250g drone, why would they?
