I was gifted a Mavic Air 2, and I want to thank you for sharing your training videos. Your videos have helped me understand my drone, and I now have the knowledge and confidence to safely fly my drone. One thing that I did to my controller was to place small pieces of white first aid tape on each side of the joy stick and label the direction with a fine tipped marker. For a newbie drone pilot having those direction labels have helped me not to get confused when learning to fly. I also labeled the FN button one click = Map/Live View and two clicks = Center Gimbel. I also put a reminder on the controller to put my phone in airplane mode so I don't receive texts or phone calls while flying.

Useful tips. Thanks :-) My biggest mistake when first starting (with a cheaper, "training" drone): I figured flying it from the upwind side of the clearing, nearly direct overhead, was the way to go, but when I went up to maximum altitude (50-80 meters), the drone lost the connection, went into *slow descent mode* , yet *still drifted* with the gentle wind crashing some 300 meters away! The drone was going downwind faster than it was coming down in altitude, so I could never re-establish the connection. .... Now, I position myself closer to the center of the clearing and fly the drone 20 - 30 meters *upwind* from me. When flying high and it loses the wireless connection, it starts slowly descending -- right on top of me! When it gets close enough, I just re-establish the connection and continue flying. .... *One complaint* on the cheaper drones (and maybe others): they need a *fast/emergency descent mode*. My drone is only 180 grams, and *even a gentle updraft will counteract the normal descent mode and push the drone upward*. If I could simply pull down on the ascend/descend lever while in descent/landing mode, then it could descend much faster. Release the lever, and it goes back into regular descent mode. This would get the pilot out of many difficult situations due to troublesome winds, swooping birds of prey, (or GPS-position-maintained windy descents for expensive drones). (OT testing: putting a -hyphen/minus sign in front of text serves as a strikeout and then close with another hyphen- at the end (no spaces on either end for hyphens or asterisks))

Ha ha ha! I’m guilty of some of the minor issues you mentioned when I first began to fly drones or quads. I’m a private pilot and fly a real plane all the time. Quads are different. One thing that I had to get used to, was depth perception. When I first started flying quads, I crashed into a couple trees. I learned my lesson! Just PAY ATTENTION, and use common sense. Take it slow in the beginning and work your way through the settings and practice, practice, practice! Make sure you are in a wide open area and set parameters. In time you will gain the muscle memory necessary to become a proficient quad pilot. I added the “sUAV License” to my PPL. I’m now working on starting a little side business with my quad copter. It’s a long process and it will take some time for those of you who choose to do the same. Be patient! Don’t violate the FAA airspace restrictions! If you do, you will pay dearly! This was a very informative vid, and hopefully you will yield the warnings, and take the experience of seasoned pilots to heart! Great Job Jevon! SUB EARNED! 😎

What a well deserved thumbs up! Speaking as a newer user ( approx ten flights), I strongly recommend using sport mode only when trying to gain altitude quickly...it WILL get problematic quickly in horizontal flight. A very thorough understanding of the return to home feature is absolutely mandatory! I was told by a pro that it would be 25 flights before I could be considered a competent operator. I was a tad skeptical, and I am now a firm believer. I would also say new pilots should begin with a Spark as it can more likely to survive a crash without damage, whereas a Mavic is more vulnerable. Lastly, the only point of owning a quality drone is for video, and if you're unfamiliar with photo and/ or video editing, congratulations, you just inherited a couple more hobbies...and its all absolutely worth the time investment. If you're an Apple user, they have great free open media classes in the Apple stores, you take your project and hardware to the class and the instructors help when you encounter a problem, there is no set agenda...I highly recommend them in the absence of nerdy friends. Thanks for video, well done!

Another helpful tip: PRACTICE WITH THE SIMULATOR IN THE DJI GO APP. I am used to planes, for me, down was up! It broke me of the habit and I tested all of the flight modes. I could switch to map mode and perform all of the POI, locking modes and everything. Really helped with the mind-muscle connection of both controls and I flew much better my first (second really. I crashed it in the house like you mentioned first) time out. It was a breeze and my confidence was elevated.

Thanks for the helpful list of mistakes made by beginners like me. I can add my own one. By returning to the home position, my very new DJI Mavic 2 Zoom landed on the house roof about 3 meters off takeoff position. As most of the roofs, it is slanted and the drone slipped into rain gutter pipe and snagged and continued to work while I tried desperately to stop it with the controller. Quadcopter did not stop running. As a result, two damaged propellers, but everything else fortunately works. My conclusion is that the landing must be controlled visually - just my two cents.

I recommend the ASA 107 test prep, it may not help with you flying the drone, but it will keep you out of trouble. There is a lot of rules (backed up by law) that you need to follow. If you have to notify the airport (within 5 Mi stat.) it shouldn't be an issue. you just need your aircraft registration number (If needed) , the make and model of your aircraft, the altitude you will fly at, at what time to what time you will be flying, and the location of where the pilot (you) will be at during the flight. Good on ya for learning the aircraft before flying it. Remember there is a simulator mode in the DJI app to learn the controls better before you fly for real.

DJI Mavic Pro as their first drone? Noooooooooooooooooo. People need to start off with a $50 drone to break in their basic skills. You don't buy your teenager a $30k SUV for their first car do you? Then you wouldn't spend $1000 on your first drone. Crash it a couple dozen times, replace props and motors, then graduate to a $100 drone. Hone your skills even more. Then take the plunge. I've dropped my Syma drones into pools, into ceiling fans, heck a dog even ran off with one. I didn't lose my lunch. If my Mavic Pro got taken by an eagle I'd be DEVASTATED lol. Maybe because my income isn't as fluid as some I guess. But that's my $.02 so if you got the $$ and if it's what you want, more power to you, it's just not something we all can do from get go.

wingmanalive actually, starting off with a $50 pos is a great way to turn anybody off to flying. Folks new to the rc hobby should ALWAYS start off eith a ground based vehicle in kit form that they have to build from the ground up. This teaches not only how things work, but it also (and more importantly) teaches patience. Once they've mastered an understanding of surface vehicles, then they graduate to building and learning to fly fixed wing rc aircraft and then drones.
@Mutrino5 жыл бұрын
Strongly disagree. Starting with a $50 piece of shit drone is the best way to get so frustrated that you just give up altogether. I started with a $100 drone. No GPS, it required constant user input just to hover in one place, constantly compensating for the slightest breeze. The camera was not gimballed so it was almost impossible to get any useful footage. Yes, it crashed and not a lot of damage was done, but that really doesn't matter much when flying it is not fun no big loss but also no fun. Needles to say that drone is sitting in a box collecting dust. You can start with a $1000 drone if you don't rush it and are smart about it.

1. Gimal? lol Remove all the stickers... Where are they and why? The whole point of a "Video" is to show people.. Otherwise its just a podcast mate... 2. Firmware is not all about "Bugs" It often contains updates for No Fly Zones, mapping and software changes to make things a bit easier to use. Bugs, yes, definitely, but not the only reason. 3. In between calibrations, the "Last known location" and the orientation and height both in AGL and ASL can change dramatically, dis-orientating your drone. This will cause the "Return to home" and other navigational features to fail miserably, and can also cause the drone to not even take off if it cannot understand where it is. 4. No comment... 5. Again, ZERO mention of insurance, no fly zones and how to find somewhere safe to fly it, and so far, no drone has ever "chopped someones arm off" Making a video where you tell people "What to do" without any reasoning, or what "appears" to be any knowledge of why/how is really not helpful bud...

It can not be taken for granted whether your 8 or 35 years old, understanding how wind moves around objects like trees, buildings, poles, uneven ground, ponds and beaches, it takes a lot of research if you are a beginner but you have to learn this if you are to fly responsibly.

Awesome Tips! If I heard and applied your recommendation for not letting the battery go below 30%, my first drone crash wouldn't have happened. My First Crash: I was flying through a parking lot with tons of big trees and because I was pushing the battery and had Auto-Home selected for when it goes below 5%, it flipped into Auto and flew up into the branches. While in auto, it kept trying to go up through the branches till it flipped upside down and crashed 20 feet into the asphalt. It fell hard! Luckily I had DJI insurance and was able to replace it (too damaged for a repair).

I'm new to drones. My first drone is the DJI air 2s. Your channel has been extremely informative and helpful. I have gained way more insight than I ever expected. So I just wanted to drop a line and say thank you.

Thanks a lot. It is very helpfil for the beginners and even for advanced drone pilots. Just one more advise for the beginners is: before you even unpack your new drone, go to KZfaq and type a serch request: ""MY_TYPE_OF_DRONE crash" and "MY_TYPE_OF_DRONE flyaway". There will be a lot of stuff to see and to analyze. Especially for new expensive hi tech drones having new features in firmware, software and in hardware.

The most important mistake that is made and is the reason for most crashes is this; Launch your drone up about ten feet and then take off in any direction at any speed and height. Then, perhaps you lost sight of it or you want to call it quits so you hit the RTH button and as it appears to be about twenty feet from landing you notice it is not going to land on the same spot it departed from so the flyer panics by trying to wrest control but the crash happens first. There are actually two ways to prevent this. The first is to hit the pause button. The second is when you launch take it to about thirty feet and let it hover for a short while, This enables the craft to get a good reading of the spot it took off from and thus can actually return to home. So now you can modify your 20 biggest to 21 biggest.

I just crashed my drone a week ago and had to send it to DJI for repairs. Fortunately I had DJI care. Had it for 6 months. Number 13: understanding weather was my mistake. Thank you for sharing!

Spotter is mandatory in europe if you dont watch the drone but the spotter has to be next to you to directly take control if necessary

Line of sight was my first leason, don't kill the motors mid flight 2nd, if the drone is acting weird, stop and recalibrate everything 3rd, don't let controller run out of power 4th, keep all electronics devices away while starting.
