You save $82 by getting the fly more instead of buying the DJI accesories on their own.

However I would get other accessories than the DJI provided options.

- Instead of the DJI hub that only charges one at a time, get the the 5 in 1 chargeravailable on amazon that charges 3 at once. $50. ($10 extra)
- Instead of the car charger get a 300W inverter. Lets you power the better 5 in 1 charger or any other 120V piece of equipment in you car. ($25 less)
- Skip on the stupid battery to power bank adapter (Save $19)
- Skip on the shoulder bag and get this case that lets you hold more (Save $55)

You save $89 (basicly the same as what you would have saved with the fly more) by going with these options instead. And they are much more capable.

Yes worth it as it would cast £170 for the two batteries alone

I would say its worth it if you are going to use the bag, I use a bigger bag because I like to hold other items with it. If not just purchase the accessories you need separately.

Worth it for the 2 extra batteries and charging Hub, I sold the Carry case as not much protection and used the Money towards a small MC-CASES Hard Case, never used the Car charger or Battery to USB Adapter!

Not worth it. The charger they provide for the batteries is misleading. it charges one fully then moves on to the next and so forth instead of all at the same time. I have heard that the rapid charger listed above does damage to the batteries though.

Yes, it come with 2 more batteries...but again it really depend what you really need. For me, i would just buy extra batteries  and a 4 or 5-in-one battery charger from Aliexpress. As for drone bag, i would go online to find one that suit my liking.

or this

I wouldnt say its worth it if you are not using everything, you pretty much pay full price for all the additional items and get the bag for free.

It is a valid point that the combination of other accessories can save some $$. I think the bag is mediocre but the 4 way charger is pretty good. If you plan on charging more than your 3 batteries you take to fly, you will find it only charges one at a time anyway. Investing in a 300W inverter also has some expense. When doing the costing though, consider the shipping costs and/or taxes.  Either way, if you buy the flymore package, you can be flying the same day. You will likely want to upgrade the bag.

Bag is a $79 charge so if you dont use it you are only saving $3 . As for me I wouldnt use the USB adapter either witch is another $19. SO i rather spend the money on 2 batteries and the accessories that i plan on using.

I didn't buy the flymore.
I just bought extra batteries as required and then purchased the Mavic bag from eBay for £42.00 delivered.  
I really love the bag as you really don't have to put all the chargers in there to pop out and fly the drone.  It's a great bag for £42.00 as its made to fit.

Everything listed has free (or almost free shipping) and no tax in most states.

I have the FlyMore Combo and I use everything it came with. If you're not going to then some of the suggestions posted are good alternatives.

I respectfully disagree.
The provided charger module charges the battery that needs the least charging first instead of waiting for all the batteries to charge at the same time. Gets you back in the air faster.
The 12v charger works perfectly with the provided hub.
The power bank adapter charges your cell phone from a battery. You will need this.
The case doesn't have much room but it does hold the entire Fly More package and room for more. If you need packing instructions, let me know. And it's so small and portable.

Get the package. If it doesn't fulfill all your needs, you can expand on it.

Its a no brainer to buy the fly more. The bag is perfect and holds everything in the package plus a couple of extra propellers if you pack it the right way. It took a while to figure out how to pack it. The only thing I don't use is the power bank adapter. But even that might be good to have the day you find yourself with a phone with a low charge. You can use whats left in your used batteries to charge that. Extra batteries is a must and everything feels solid and contains what you need to enjoy your mavic investment best way possible. Have fun.
I have the Inspire Pro and the Phantom 4 as well. But I have found myself to use the Mavic more and more because of its portability and ease to use. Dont overdo it and buy a larger bag. You will loose some of the ease of use and portability. I bring it everywhere. The car, my boat, on trips overseas. The ease of use and portability is the key.
