The moment your new drone lifts up into the air, the probability that it will crash goes up significantly no matter how good you are. <\/p>\n
Even with obstacle sensors on every side, there\u2019s still a decent chance your drone could lose control or smash into a tree or building. <\/p>\n
That\u2019s where DJI Care and DJI Care Refresh come in. <\/p>\n
If you are buying one a DJI drone<\/a>, getting one of them is a no-brainer. <\/p>\n They cost a bit of money to purchase and you may also be required to pay for drone replacements. <\/p>\n But when you compare what they cost you to what you\u2019ll pay repairing or replacing a damaged drone yourself, they are totally worth it. <\/p>\n So what exactly do these policies involve and which one between the two should you get? <\/p>\n I explain everything in detail below. <\/p>\n If you are in hurry, here\u2019s the bottom line: the main difference between Care and Care Refresh is that with the latter, you get a maximum of 2 DJI drone replacements at a small additional fee<\/strong> DJI Care does not cover drone replacement. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n DJI Care was the original protection plan for DJI Camera drones. <\/p>\n It\u2019s currently available<\/a> for a number of older drones including Phantom 4, Phantom 3 Professional, Phantom 3 Advanced, Inspire 1 Pro and Inspire 1 RAW. <\/p>\n The price depends on the type of drone. <\/p>\n For instance, a DJI Care plan for the Phantom 3 4K goes for $149 while a plan for the Inspire 1 Pro costs $549. <\/p>\n The plan, which is valid for 1 year by the way, covers the following scenarios: <\/p>\n During the coverage period, DJI covers all costs of repairs as long as you don\u2019t exceed the limit specified in the warranty. <\/p>\n You can send your drone in for repair as many times as you need as long as you stay under the coverage amount. <\/p>\n The only exception is if the drone is completely damaged beyond repair. In that case, the DJI Care warranty will not help you. <\/p>\n Note that DJI does not charge any deductibles. <\/p>\n You can buy DJI Care at DJI\u2019s website or from a dealer. The activation code will only work for drones that have been active for less than 48 hours. <\/p>\n That\u2019s why I recommend buying the warranty when you purchase your drone. <\/p>\n Visit DJI\u2019s website<\/a> to learn more about the warranty and see applicable terms and conditions. <\/p>\nDJI Care<\/h2>\n
