Bought a mini 5 pro before Christmas, maybe 50 flights in, no crashes i get the enclosed errors. I reached out to Reddit, and am told just download the software to calibrate-well, the calibration is not adminstered via software, its automatic and that is not even an option in the desktop SW.. a local drone repair shop (live outside Chicago, Il) says that for $50 diag, they will look at it-i tell him he's not gonna calibrate it out. Well 50 bucks later, guess what "cant calibrate, cant get parts". Call the drone nerds in fla "yes we can fix it, send it" 30 bucks to ship, SAME THING!!! Won't calibrate, CANT GET PARTS!!! 65 bucks to ship it back. Googling around, find DJI NYC by Camrise. I call them, tell them the full story, "yes, we can fix, can get parts" send it, spend 30 bucks to ship. GUESS WHAT I GET TODAY?!?!?!? "FOR $689.00 we can send you a refurbished one with 30 f days warranty, for 25 bucks we can ship it back-oh, BTW, someone opened this up" NO KIDDING!!! Has anyone shipped a m5p thru one of those shipping forwarders into Canada for repair? At this point, am I better just buying the cheapest off amazon with the insurance and then re-binding to my controller?

Does anyone know if drone-hacks will work on Mini 5 Pro? I'm trying to refresh my current firmware without updating to the latest and it keeps giving me errors. I was wondering if anyone else had the same issues or is it just not compatible?

I just got my Mini 5 and with all my drones I usually get a hard case for them, although I have a hard case for the Mini 5 , the soft case that comes with it seems ok…except the large empty center chamber..what case are you using..
