There’s some great news for Drone Enthusiasts this week! After being “discontinued” for nearly a year, DJI has made some heads turn by announcing that the Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 is now restocked and available for order! Many, including myself, were expecting the announcement last week to be the rumored and awaited Phantom 5, but this was still a welcome notice.
The Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 was originally discontinued due to a shortage of parts being available to keep up with the orders and demand. Thankfully they were able to get things sorted or work out a new deal with new vendors, either way, the drones are back on the shelves as of January 6th, 2020 and should be smooth sailing for the foreseeable future!
