phantom 4 durability

[Mehmet]

hi guys, first thread here and first ever drone. how durable is the phantom 4?

Let's see: at $1,400 is a high end toy. With regular use, based on the other members experience having older model drones, it should lasts about 2 years without much trouble.
If you are too careful could last many more years. If you are the sporty type (on the edge!) would last about 18 months before the batteries start to quit.
Average flying time is about 300 hours, or so I have heard. After this time, Start looking for motor replacements, cracked shells, etc...
