Ok. Refurb or not. I sent them a P4P with one thing wrong - demonstrably and provable. They sent me back an estimate with a laundry list of broken items which were false. They sent pics which I knew were of another drone with broken landing gear and gimbal. No way. I asked for them to resend...

Don’t use DJI anyway. They make stuff up just to get up up to the cost of shipping you a refurb. I can prove this but won’t bore you here. See if DroneTed is still in business.
Since you only get 20-25 mins battery at best, you can have an SD card that will hold that much video. So it may make more sense to just run the video. Then speed it up to your liking in post. Looks like a Timelapse.
I don’t own a P4P V2. Only V1. But in everything I’ve read about the V2, there is nothing different about the shell.
I can’t vouch for the P4A either. But if the article you quoted is authentic then DJI claim it’s got some titanium. I can’t vouch. But at least one other person here has disputed...
