Dude! That was awesome. I just retired 2 months ago - now I know what might be my first retirement hobby. Thanks! Great job!

Justin is my favorite teacher, i watch Hours of KZfaq videos to learn from other copter pilots, thank you for the five star videos.

Thank you for your help, sir. I watched several of your videos and completed my first flight ever with a drone (Phantom 2) today. Cheers!

Nice beginner tutorial, Drone Camps RC. Well done. I will definitely visit your website and take a look. May I give a suggestion to new Phantom Pilots especially after reading the last comment by Joseph S? My experience is based on 2700 military flight hours in 5 different helos, from Bell Jet Ranger trainers to my last platform, a Navy MH-53E (36K lb beast).Flying around at altitude in GPS mode with any model Phantom (I have two) is easy. My suggestion to gain new pilot confidence, minimize landing anxiety, and sweaty palms, is to practice as soon as possible flying the Phantom around no more than 2 feet off the ground, while the Phantom is in "Ground Effect". Ground effect is the cushion of air created by the rotor downwash and will create/require additional minor stick input. GPS assistance should hold you pretty steady at 2 feet off the ground. But, because of "Ground Effect", to hover over a spot (for landing) will require minor right stick input. One of the best lessons I was taught while in training was: put in a cyclic (right stick) correction, then take out that correction while hovering in Ground Effect directly over a spot. So, in real time, your right stick will be in constant motion, putting in tiny control inputs, and then taking that input out.... then moving on to the next correction. Flying real helos to Phantom drones, my cyclic (right stick) is never static and constantly in motion while in Ground Effect or when landing. Practice flying simple pattern work while in Ground Effect. I think it will help new "drone hover" or "landing anxiety" and will quickly build skill and confidence.So, not trying to be a know-it-all or impress (retired and too old for that now). Just trying to pass on suggestions so you build landing skill quickly and avoid crash landing your Phantom!Semper Fly,Dave. USMC 0-3 '79-86; USN 0-6 '86-2010.

Excellent video - thank you for taking the time to make this, I was totally lost, now I see the light.

Justin- I keep returning to your videos out of the 1000's on KZfaq. Your explanation & delivery of information is very professional & warm. You should be rightly proud of these informative tutorials- Thank you

Great Video, thank you for the tips. I look forward to putting them into practice when I get my phantom next week.

As a 10-year military veteran, I appreciate the instruction here. Thorough enough to make competent flyers out of us noobies. Thank you much. Beers!

So stoked to have come across all your vids! Excellent job on showing us all the basics! Thank you so much for helping this beginner out, i greatly appreciate it!

Very helpful. Just picked up a used Phantom and am looking forward to my first flight. After I read the manual, and watch some more videos!! Thanks!!

thank you for sharing this first flight video... Very helpful

Well shot and clear information - some wind interference at one point but still audible. Many thanks for this, I got my phantom today and intend to fly this weekend - so anything that helps through the first few flights is great.

Mine comes in this week from amazon. I'll sure to be a most observant student.

Many thanks for all your videos. Great tutorial and learning before starting to fly. Plenty of useful tips and things to do/avoid I would not even considered myself. Well deserved sub and +. Keep up the good work dude :)

Very HELPful! Thanks..

This really helped, thank you!

Really great video ! Everything was explained in a straight forward and easy manor, thanks!

Like the way you explained everything, helps a lot.

Add my name to the Happy Campers! I tried flying RC Heli's a few years back and quit when I noticed my credit card was maxed out paying for repairs. Never got so much as a decent hover :( I think the drone will be different. Watching and listening to your tutorial has gave me some much needed confidence. Thanks for helping me and then rest of the noob's!!!

Great video just flew for the first time today with the DJI 3 standard.

That was awesome thank you!

Outstanding!! Thanks so much. Very informative for the new guy.

Thanks for providing closed captioned! it helps me understanding what you are saying!!!

I just brought a phantom 3 standard so this is a good video for me

Great starter video, thank you!

best drone class I've ever seen... good stuff...

Very well presented! Thank you!

Good job fella!

Excelent tutorial, this week I am going to perfomr my first flights!!!

Thanks for a very professional explanation for beginners like me. A real help.

Thank you so much for all the information! Going to practise tomorrow! :)

Great video! Really helped out alot.. Simple easy to understand instructions too :) Must say im a bit nervous about flying the Phantom 2 and i haven't even got it yet.. (its on its way) :D All those stories/videos about flyaways etc are a little daunting though

Awesome vid thanks. I have not bought mine yet but thanks to this vid I feel I can rock n' roll. "Let's go shopping" :)

Awesome tutorial! Put my new Phantom 3 together today and tried it out on the balcony in basic mode - nearly clipped a chair as had it facing me so everything worked backwards - so big tip there! I think I'll take the camera off and take it out into a field.. can't work out how to put the gimbal protector back on though! Can't wait to look through some more of your tutorials!

Great job buddy this is the best post ever

Thank you very much ! I dont own a drone but this was very informative.

Very usefull for me, thanks man!

Very nice video. Wish I would of seen this 3 years ago when I landed my drone on the Moon.

Great tutorial,thanks.

Thanks so much this is very helpful. You got a new sub

Excellent video, thank you

This video was really good and helped me a lot.

Thank you! helps a lot Cheers....

Cool video safe flying 👍

Thx for the advice I really needed that

good job bro, i learned a lot

Thanks,just about to buy one,all tips welcome,currently flying a Hubsan for experience,do not want to crash an expensive piece of kit.

Thanks for making this video it has been the most informative piece of information I have been able to aquire. Thanks again!

this helped a ton thanks

This is probably the best tutorial for a newbie I have come across. Well done.. subed!

Nice tutorial!

Thanks great video.

that's a great tutorial for beginner

What kind of case is that? Is there one that will hold the Phantom with prop-guards on? Thanks!

Great video, thank you. One question: noticed that your transmitter antenna was not straight up, I always thought that it should be, am I wrong?

great vid man! very informative for noobs like myself :)

nice video bro... thanks

Perfect !

Great video man, thanks for helping a brotha out !

Great video. So I only need to do the circuits to get used to the controls and not every time I start up the phantom ?

this is THE best tutioral

Thanks. I figured it would be battery towards me but wanted to make sure.

this is very helpful.

Thanks.. good video

nice video, good tips for us beginners thanks

Great Video, thanks for creating this. I have never owned one. Just wondering what you think of the idea of buying a less expensive first drone, mastering it, then upgrading to something like the Phantom 3 or 4. I was looking at the Contixo FX RC quadcopter.

Thanks for this video

I have DJI phantom 2 standard, im opening mine soon, if i dont apply throttle once airborn does it just hover on the spot??

I have seen quite a few videos before i purchase my phantom 2, I wanted to ask, why do the majority say "keep your cellphone away from where you will launch" since you need the phone to calibrate a few things on it ? ie.. waypoints, to view the video on it etc.. do you do the calibration and once done, then it's ok to have the phone near it? doesn't it distrub it either way?

hi there,good video pal all well explained but i still have a question. Can you fly this particular drone dji 3 standard without the wifi,i mean no phone or tablet or wifi aereal? like you could fly the phantom 2? I've been trying to fly my dji phantom 3 standard and every time there is an issue like batteries are cold,some magnetic interference, also a yellow rapid flashing apparently loss of linkage with the transmitter ? or it won't let me calibrate it. I go flying with my mate who has a phantom 2 and he just does the dji dance and away he goes where as me no matter where we go it takes me ages to get it going if it goes at all! I'm begining to regreat buying the damn thing!!! Thanks.

Do you have any tutorials for the Phantom 4?, this is my first drone and would like to get more knowledgeable before I try to flight it for first time

Great Video, My son gave a Phantom 1 to mess with. It was a lake recovery. ( It has issues )

Good job thanks

great video sir

thank you, very informative :-)

Good Video. I watched your other Video saying not to use prop guards because of turbulence it creates. I wish I would have watched it in advance of installing mine. As when I took off it tumbled into a Telephone Pole. Now I have ordered a New shell and a CW Mtr and new speed control. :^( I have a question for you? I have plenty of electrical experience but for the life of me while trouble shooting my phantoms bad mtr, I hooked up my vom and tried to get a voltage reading out of the speed control by touching terminals on the red, yellow, blk leads and NADA. I did this on a good working MTR for a comparison as to try and see what parts I needed. I couldn't get a reading so I have a mtr and esc coming this week I also will be installing a gimble, a Camera, a Hub, a Iosd mini, and avl58. so before its over I will be getting all warm and fuzzy inside my phantom. I will give you a shot in future on business now that I have found you. Thanks Bob

I just took my Phantom 3 Standard out for first time today. My first drone flights ever. I had it in beginner mode for ht and spd. I had a couple small crashes. Everything still working except on the DJI App it won't fly from the app now. My S1 Sw is in middle position. The app says disconnected in camera mode. Help!

Nice video,quick question,where did u get the 'wifi box'? I didnt get one with my drone

The wifi extender you have attached i not o.e.m. where can you get that would be nice to have.

Blilliant! Thank you ...buying one of these, but think 4K is probably better (any comments?)

Hi all, I have the Naza M -v2 flight controller package and was wondering if I could somehow up grade the system. I'm not quite satisfied with the flight performance. Don't get me wrong, the Naza-M does fly great. I was just expecting the same (or similar) experience as my Phantom3 gives. I heard about the A2 flight controller and how superior a controller it is over the Naza-M. Could I replace the A2 controller in place of the Naza-M unit? Due to the price of the A2 package, I just can't afford the entire set. Please let me know what you all think. Thank you for your time. Yours, Steve Sent from my iPad

Is this the standard?do you have the animated voice that says ready for take off and so on?

I have a P3:4K and its camera randomly looks down should i get a replacement drone?

If you are descending from high altitude, and you have the left stick all the way down for two seconds. Will it shut off the motors?

Again, great information. I like the way you explain things so even a newbie like me can understand. haha. You mentioned when flying you should have the back of the copter towards you. Is that also when returning it back to the home position?

I have a question I found this DJI Phantom 1 drone someone apparently lost can I buy the phantom 1 controller and the Fly this drone I would love to return it but I don't know who it belongs to

it's so nice

Where did u get that WI Fi transmitter ??

Great job explaining how to fly... :-)

Drone Camps...Is that a Pelican 1510 case? Ideally I will get a hard case for my Phantom 2. Your videos are outstanding, thanks for all the info!

i viewed a lot of videos since this is my first Drone usage .. and this is the best video ever ... very simple and deserves the its title.... Thanks a lot

Hi! Very helpful video. I have plans to buy Phantom FC40. Is it a good buy?

please help me many time upgrades my phanton3 advanced but it's not complete remote-controlled showing you need to upgrade drone and camera my drone is going hundred-meter up is showing signal weak signal weak

Nice video, newbie to this, but what is and do you get the WiFi box?

nice vid.can you do the same with the dji go?

Hi I picked up mine today, I was just watch a DJI video & in it the guy says its important to calibrate the IMU but when I go into the setting he shows the interface looks a little different, not only that but I think mine is already done out of the box as the lights are flashing yellow just as he said it would after the cal set up. the cam also. can you let me know if this should e done? thanks in advance.

what is that white box on the front of your contriller? a Booster?
