DJI Mini 3 Care Plans
Hola friends! Like most people, you probably have/pay for insurance and never use it… but it’s good to have it during the unfortunate case of an accident. I have been on the other side of this predicament, having crashed my drone without insurance and having to pay out of pocket for repairs, not fun. Today I’ll be discussing the care plans that are available through DJI for the Mini 3 Drone. Thanks for the support, checkout the youtube page! Huntington Drones on Youtube
