When selling a drone is there any data I should be wiping off?

For example when you sell a phone you would normally do a factory rest to wipe any data from it.

Hi @JonD there are a couple of recent threads on this subject here:

Advice on prepping M2Z for sale and transferring DJI Care Refresh

Hi guys, I’d like to tap into the knowledge of The Collective about preparing my Mavic 2 Zoom for sale. I’m thinking about things like the batteries, software resets etc: – do couriers want batteries to be discharged or below a certain level? – to make things simpler for a buyer, how do I “disconnect” myself from the drone’s software/account? – how do I transfer the remaining DJI Care Refresh to a new owner? Anything else I should consider before listing it? Thanks guys.

And:

Reset before selling Mavic Air

Hi all. I’m selling my Mavic Air, will be putting it on the For Sale & Wanted section shortly, and maybe eBay. Should I do a factory reset to clear all the data? I’m a little worried that if I do that it may need all the updates doing and re-binding etc and I don’t want to give the new owner any headaches. Or is it just a case of them connecting to their own Go4 account and that will be like new? Thanks.

Hope it helps!
