DJI Mavic 2 (Like New)

The DJI Mavic 2 came in two versions. The Mavic 2 Zoom has a 24-48mm optical zoom camera, while the Mavic 2 Pro has a Hasselblad camera with a 1-inch sensor. Both fold up small and have obstacle sensors all round, and they're still popular for photography on a budget.

This listing sells like-new, pre-owned Mavic 2 drones in either version. Each comes as a Standard package with one battery, a two-battery package, or a Fly More Combo with three batteries. The listing says each drone is tested and fully working. The Standard package includes the drone, a remote controller that uses your phone as a screen, one battery, a charger and cables. The Fly More Combo adds two batteries, a car charger, a charging hub, a power bank adapter and a shoulder bag.

Who it suits

• Photographers who want a 1-inch sensor without paying for a new drone.

• Videographers who like optical zoom for framing.

• Pilots replacing a crashed or lost drone.

• Anyone whose old drone has failed batteries or weak motors and isn't worth repairing.

Things to check

Check the local rules for flying a drone of this weight before buying. Update the firmware and calibrate the compass before the first flight.

Inspect the batteries when they arrive, and don't use any that are swollen. Fly a short test in an open area to check the camera, gimbal and obstacle sensors.
