Mavic Pro Settings - Stop Getting Terrible Footage
Рет қаралды 178,773
6 жыл бұрынThe brand new Mavic 2 series is out! Buy yours here: click.dji.com/ALX5_HBsZdHZdio...
Still can't get your Mavic Pro footage to look great? In this video I explain the best gimbal settings and drone input settings to use, and I also explain why. If you guys are anything like me when I started recording aerial footage, then I know the frustration you are going through. Over the past year and a half, I have learned what works best for cinematic footage. I hope this video helps you out, and if it does, or even if it doesn't, please let me know in the comments!

Russ, I rarely comment on videos, but wanted to tell you how much your videos help me. I am a new owner of the Mavic Pro and the way you explain things really works for me. I only get notifications from one KZfaq channel and it is 51 Drones. Now tell us how you came up with that name! Thank you from a loyal follower! Greg in Arizona.

51 Drones Hi. I really enjoy watching 51 Drones videos. I have a Magic pro (well I did have one,it’s out for repair now after a small crash) I have it and really enjoy it and watching your videos. The crash I had was similar to the one you did the video on landing on the patio where you clipped the chain link fence. I was landing on a picnic table and clipped a small tree branch.Broke one propeller and messed up the Gimbal.After panicking and pushing all the wrong buttons. Live and learn. Keep up the good work👍 Steve Smith

Russ, I'm a total beginner. Just travelled 1500 miles to do some Mavic Pro filming in Scotland and all for nothing due to flickering on trees etc. It's unusable mostly. I wish I'd discovered your videos before I went up there. So, a huge thanks for all of your effort, very much appreciated. Next time, I'll be prepared! Now, if only I could fix what I've already shot.

I get my Mavic Pro Platinum fly more combo tomorrow (2-29-2020), and I must say, I am so glad I watched your video. I figured that learning as much as I could about my Drone from You-tuber's who already have, or had one would help me understand how it works (flies & operates) would save me from pulling my hair out (ha-ha), which by the way, I still have. Thanks again for all these setting tips for getting better quality videos from the camera.

@jamestremain8115 5 жыл бұрын
Hi Russ. I was having problems with getting my MAVIC 2 PRO to settle down. I fly RC Heli's and to have them less sensitive I usually set up Expo to Plus +30 - +35 to make them more docile so I set the MAVIC the same way..... to my surprise the Mavic was not docile at all, it was way more sensitive. That's when I realized the lower the number the more docile it will become, opposite of the Heli's. Then I saw your video and it confirmed what I was thinking so I set it up using some of your settings one of which was 80% Gain on the Yaw, also Brake and Yaw endpoints at 50 as I had no idea about these at all. Great videos, very helpful for new Quad pilots. Weather permitting I'll see how these new settings work out.

I was pleasantly surprised also that you provided a summary of your suggested setting at the end of the video. I can't wait to start setting my Mavic Pro up to try it out. My videos have been rubbish up to now so fingers crossed I'll be getting some decent footage. Thank a lot for your good work, keep up the good work.

I'm definitely going to try your settings and one thing that really helped me, even though it didn't seem like a big deal, was doing the Ken Heron "pinch method" on the sticks rather than using my thumbs when specifically filming. It really helped me to get the smaller movements so much more smooth. Great video as always Russ!

Super video for anyone beginner or not! 1 OF THE BETTER video, no doubt about it! I just got my drone back on Saturday back from Dji! It took me a while to update the firmware for the front and bottom sensors but I finally figured it out late last night, that you have to point your drone at your monitor and aim at these checkerboard-like boxes to calibrate your front and bottom sensors.. You and #FlytPath really have some good videos on how to get the best footage with your MP or MP2
