I also ordered one on Amazon in Oct then cancelled in late Nov because it seems no one had gotten the Fly More kit from Amazon. So I ordered from B&H Photography who has never let us down, but after one month they admitted that they had no date to offer us. So I went back and ordered again from Amazon and 3 days later was told by the guys on another forum that Amazon is a dead end so either order from DJI or Apple directly.
I have now cancelled my Amazon order again and now reordered with DJI. I sure hope this works, I have a 3 week window of permit work left before I am sent to scour for an aerial site for the other part of the video shoot done in another Caribbean island. Nerve racking to say the least, I thought I had plenty of time and now I am down from 10 Weeks to 2 Weeks. If this does not come through I will have to have them send a larger drone, and those always attract more attention which is bad when your just scouting.
I'm assuming you got yours? After some really confusing update emails from Amazon, I ended up getting the drone mid January sans the extra battery. That came a few days ago. All from Amazon.
Communications from the dealers and DJI seem to be really lacking. I don't think I would have minded the wait as much if they were more forthright about the likelihood of it actually shipping on the quoted dates instead of flustercluck that's been our experiences so far. I've seen hardware Kickstarters run smoother, heh. That being said, it's an impressive bit of kit and I'm glad I stuck it out and waited. DJI shouldn't rely on that kind of loyalty in the future, though. |
