DJI Mini Drone w/ Accessories - $300 (Billings (West End))
QR Code Link to This Post
I am selling my very lightly used DJI Mini drone (first gen). Less than an hour of total flight time on it. The drone is in amazing condition. With one caveat. The blades are slightly scuffed due to a very gentle tap on the ceiling of my living room during my first start up. No physical damage in terms of how they perform or work, just some light scuffs. Outside of that, the drone works and performs like it just came out of the box. It has never been dropped or wrecked either, just to ease anyone's concerns there. Very well taken care of and maintained. Currently selling it because I haven't used it much. Had plans to take it on vacations and that hasn't worked out. I figure someone else will use it as intended.
Included with the drone and controller, is a host of accessories. I originally purchased the Fly More Combo for $550. That included two extra batteries (three in total), the multi battery charger, blade guards (probably should have used those on that first flight lol) and a nice case to carry everything in. I also purchased some blade holders for when it is in the case, a landing pad (orange and blue side) and 64gb Mini SD card for some storage (which I am including). You will also notice it has a blue pattern skin applied. I purchased that to make the drone a bit more visible next to grey skies. It also protects the drone. However, it is easily removed if you don't like it. I have the original box with all the packaging inside.
Some particulars.
First off, you do not need to register this drone. Any drone under 250grams that is being used recreationally is good to go without all of registering red tape. However, normal rules, regulations and laws in your area still apply. I have flown around the Billings area with no issues. That said, if you are using it for business use, you may need to register. Not completely sure.
Secondly, depending on your phone and the size of it (thickness) you may need to snag a third party bracket for it to fit. Currently I have a S25 Ultra and it barely (kinda) works without a case. But I wouldn't recommend settling for "kinda" if your phone is too big. The phone I had during purchase worked fine, but if I was keeping this, I would just buy a brakcet. There is a great little bracket (or clips) that can be found on Amazon for about $10, with more complex ones going up from there. Just something to keep in mind.
Third, the blades. As mentioned above, they are lightly scuffed. Again, no performance issues or concerns there. When the drone is calibrated, it is stable. But, if you are concerned about that in any way, shape or form, new blades are very inexpensive. They can be found for $15 or less, but there are more expensive ones depending on what kind you want. Not needed though.
As for what I am asking, I am selling it for $300 (cash only). With all the accessories included and overall condition of everything, I think that is a fair price. And it will be great for anyone looking to get into the drone world.
Lastly, please be mindful of all laws and regulations where you are flying. Especially restricted areas, like around the airport. Unfortunately, I must be blunt here because I am not, and won't be, responsible for someone purchasing this drone and not understanding the basics laws of flying it where they live. Sorry if that sounds harsh (I promise I am not trying to be rude), I just want whomever decides to buy this to have the best experience possible without any setbacks they didn't research about first.
Shoot any questions you may have my way. Thank you for your time!
