Searching for item my using the basic item listing title (DJI Mavic 2 Zoom) does not result in my item displaying. Yes, I've made sure that no filters are applied to my search results. The listing has been up for days and that has not changed. It's an auction with a generously low starting price, yet I have few page views and bids, and I have no doubt this is going to drive down the final sale price What is the problem?

Then you didn't start the auction at the right price.
You should have started it at the price you wanted.

The OP also lost 80% of potential buyers buy not mentioning he was selling a drone. 😀

Is there a DJI Mavic 2 Zoom that exists that is NOT a drone? Therein lies one of the problems. As a buyer and a seller, the manufacturer make and model should be sufficient. I shouldn't have to specify that a Toyota Camry is also a car.

If buyers are searching for dji mavic 2 zoom drone and your listing does not have the word drone somewhere in the title or item specifics, your listing would not be a match.

If you are listing in the Drone category, adding the word drone is not strictly necessary.

Your listing does contain drone in the item specifics under Type, so your listing should appear in that search; however your listing would have gotten more attention had it been listed in the Drone category rather than the "Toys & Hobbies... Other RC Parts" category.

I shouldn't have to specify that a Toyota Camry is also a car.

You don't, as long as you list in a "Car" category.
