Hi!

Very happy with my new Phantom4 Pro - Curious...

what is the longevity of one of these? as in how many flights before it's "worn out" so to speak?

like a car wears out after xxx miles, how many flights are these rated for?
does anyone know!?

thanks!

I too just bought the P4P and find it exceeds my expectations.  I also currently have over 75 hours on my P4 which shows absolutely no indication of fatigue or wear issues, this includes the batteries (3) that have cycled over 40 times each.  I am expecting no less for the P4P.

It is most likely good for as long as you don't crash it. Batteries deteriorate over time, but the aircraft does not really need any preventative maintenance other than periodically replacing the blades. If you look after it, it will last a very long time.
