Considering a Used XSP

ecdhunt · Nov 18, 2017

I've been reading on the forum for a few days because I'm considering buying a used XSP. I'm really new to drones, being recently introduced to them via a Hubsan 501s I ended up with as part of a charity event. After shooting my first video from 150 feet, I was hooked. Was originally leaning Mavic Pro for size/portability, but then the Autel came up for sale. As an amateur photographer that still shoots film the Autel is appealing.

I have the opportunity to buy what seems like a great deal; all of this for $750:

Autel X-Star Premium, with case. It Has around 3 hours on it. 5 batteries, 6 sets of brand new props, 2-64gig micro SD cards, card adapter, extended range antenna, card holder, 4K 3axis video camera, HD photos, 2 brand new prop guard sets, Tiffen filters, gimbal guard, several spare parts kits, zero gravity harness, other harness, tablet sunshade, and other stuff in photos. 42" Landing pad.

It looks very clean, seems odd that it has a white controller with orange drone. Has all the manuals and paperwork. Guy apparently has several drones, bought it for his wife, and she doesn't enjoy flying.

What should I look for before buying it on Monday? And i assume I can use my iPhone to fly it until I figure out which tablet I want to use?

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a excellent deal. You cannot go wrong with that price.

Aaron, I got my XSP used. I got a pretty similar deal as you. The aircraft and everything was good as new. The original owner had registered (warranty) the XSP with Autel. When I got it, Autel kindly reset the registration, so that it could be registered under my name, AND (best of all), I could enjoy the full warranty!
FIVE batteries with your deal is worth a ton of money alone. You'd better jump on that deal!
