Like most DJI drones, the new Mavic Air 2 was also announced in two variants, “Standard” and “Fly More Combo”. Let’s find out what you get for the extra 189 bucks!
Both Mavic Air 2 box options come ready-to-fly with an included remote controller. As you can guess, the “Fly more combo” is dedicated to those who need extended flight time. Combo comes with 3 flight batteries and one charging hub which allows to charger 3 batteries in a sequence. This configuration will allow you to fly close to 100 minutes in a row. Combo also includes 3 extra pairs of spare propellers, a pack of ND filters, and a shoulder bag. Furthermore, it also includes a power bank adapter, which turns your Mavic Air 2 battery into a veritable power bank. In contrast, the “Standard” option comes with the bare necessities to get flying – it doesn’t even include a memory card for recording.

Is The DJI Mavic Air 2 Fly More Combo Worth It?
To figure out if you should grab the more expensive fly more combo version, you have to think about how you are going to use the DJI Mavic Air 2 and what all the accessories cost individually.
Mavic Air 2 Combo extra accessories | Quantity | Price (total USD) |
Intelligent Flight Battery (3s/3500 mAh) | 2 | $230 |
Low-Noise Propellers (Pair) | 3 | $33 |
Battery Charging Hub (3 batteries in sequence) | 1 | $59 |
Battery to Power Bank Adapter | 1 | $19 |
ND Filters Set (ND16/64/256) | 1 | $65 |
Shoulder Bag | 1 | $49 |
Total worth of $455 |
Bottom line
The math shows that going with a combo pack you will make a good deal. Paying just $189 more you will get accessories in value of $455, this is a saving of $266! Of course, combo fits especially for those who will use their Air 2 more than once in a week.
On the other hand, if you are only an occasional drone user, I think the standard pack will be just fine for you. There is no sense to invest in extra batteries or a multi-battery charging hub. Based on my experience, the only thing you will need is the shoulder bag which allows you to conveniently store and transport your Air 2 Mavic drone.

Got a Mavic Air 2 Combo for Christmas. Still not used or activated. BestBuy wants about $300 for 2 years of accidental insurance. Is the cheaper DJI Care Refresh a better route to go? Thanks
If you didn’t get the Fly More Combo, you know you can buy the Hub-Charger for Mavic Air 2?
you can order from DJI store.
I got an MA2 fly more combo for Christmas but cannot activate it in the mobile app (iOS). The error code 1112 comes up saying it is prohibited. Very frustrating!
During DJI’ winter sale there is also option for ‘Mavic Air 2 Gift Combo’ with included DJI Care Refresh!

What’s the going rate for a used Mavic Air 2 fly more combo? I have literally no time to fly mine and want to list it for a fair price. Flown 10 times and it still has 6 months of warranty.
Just bought a Mavic Air 2 Combo and I have a question. Does this 4 way charger only charge 1 battery at a time?
Yes, batteries are charged one by one in a row, not simultaneously!
I need some advice from you guys.

What is the best price for Mavic Air 2 Fly More Combo and where? Thinking to get It now or should I wait until Black Friday and Cyber Monday to get better deals? It will be a Christmas gift
Thanks
Best, fastest, and safest to order from DJI.
I have a fly more combo. Can I charge the batteries at the same time with the controller?
Is $699.99 a good price for a Mavic Air 2 with Fly More Package and DJI Care Refresh?
Yes, it is a good deal for Air 2 Combo + Rrefresh
What’s a fair price to purchase the Mavic Air 2 with the fly more combo and Dji refresh second hand?
Unfortunately, will be hard to find such a deal. The Mavic Air2 is not the drone you want to sell it….
For the money, the Mavic Air 2 Combo deal for it is about the best around and it wont be outdated for years to come!
My Mavic Air 2 Fly More Combo finally came yesterday. I have been following this blog for the last few months. Pretty much reading every single article about the Air 2. Super excited to try it out as this is my first quadcopter
Thank you for your great work!
Your welcome!
Jus crashed my Air 2 Combo and trying to use the Care Refresh replacement. I fill out all the Info and i Pay and they dont give me and instructions after this… what’s next?
Is the DJI Care Refresh worth to buy it with the Combo?
Yes, but remember to activated within the first 48 hours.
DJI always has best deals for Combo pack. Buy the Mavic Air 2 standard and you will pay lots more in a weeks for accessories than purchasing the Fly More Combo from the begging!
I’m the hwappy owner of the Mavic Air 2 Combo. I’m also hobbyiest photographer and I need a bigger bag to take my quadcopter and my photo gear in the same bag. Wich bag do you propose to me for all the stuff? Personsly I like the Torvol Drone Explorer Backpack looks great for Air2 Combo pack but before buying it I ask you :)
Thx
I just bought a mavic air 2 combo from Amazon. But they don’t offer dji care. So how can I get dji care for my drone. any ideas ?
DJI Care Refresh can be ordered directly from DJI, and as I know you need to activate it within 48 hours after the AIR2 has been activated.
Question for all the Mavic Air 2 owners. What are some accessories you have for the Mavic Air 2? I bought the Fly More combo edition What other accessories should I buy for safety and better camera performance?
‘Combo’ box includes pretty much of the accessories you need. I would be investing only in a landing pad (if you can’t catch it by hand), variable ND filters and car charger.
New to this hobby. Getting ready to order the Mavic Air 2 from Amazon with fly more option. What else should I get?
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate your efforts in making things clear! Now, I know that the combo is the best bang for your money!
Last week, I Ordered a Mavic Air 2 Fly More Combo from DJI. So far only thing that has happened is a shipping label was created. Is this normal? There is any delay in sipping because of COVID-19?
I ordered the Mavic air 2 fly more bundle and one of the batteries can’t be charged of the box…. Do I need to send back everything for replacement, or just the bad battery?
Thank!
You should contact DJI’s customer support, they will help you for sure.
Just ordered mine. I opted for fly-more combo at the DJI store today. Can’t wait to test the 8K hyper-lapse mode
Hi Greg, I’m from Lancaster, I ordered standard Mavic Air 2 (£769) from DJI store on June 4 and it arrived on June 12. I think it is a good delivery time!
Don’t forget about the “Care refresh” service, it is only £79 and it will give you free replacements if something goes wrong with your drone…
Remember: It needs activated within the last 48 hours!!!
Hi,
I want to order a Air 2 Combo, how fast DJI delivers? I’m in the UK and I think they would be the best option for me…
None of them are real alternatives. For its price, the Mavic Air 2 is a technology marvel! It comes with far the best battery life and range in its price tag!!!
I instantly sold my old FIMI X8SE and placed the order for Air 2, hope to arrive soon
I will keep you updated with a short review after arrived
#BeSafe!
Combo is best value for your money! There is faster delivery for Mavic Air 2 then order it from DJI??
I like those extra stuff, for sure I will go with the combo, just wait for some price drops…
only the two batteries worth the extra money for the combo!!!!
