Hey folks, thanks for watching! Many have asked what SD card I use. Here's the exact 256GB card I buy for all my drones/cams: amzn.to/3l6Efyo

@LJ-jq8og 2 года назад

Why not use a larger card ? If we want a larger card what would be the maximum size you would buy ?? And why ? I would think while out "in the field" you would not want to have to be changing cards constantly ?

@Dcrainmaker 2 года назад

@@LJ-jq8og The largest the unit supports is 512GB (officially anyways, perhaps it supports 1TB, but I don't have any of those cards sitting around to try it out). For me, the 256GB cards kinda fit the bill perfectly in terms of storage capacity vs price. The 512 Extreme cards cost about $110 or so, versus these are $35ish. For simple math, at 4K/30 HDR, that gives you about 7.5hrs of footage. Which is a lot of flights, especially since you're likely not shooting 100% of the time in the air in 4K/30. But to each their own!

@JasonScarborough1 2 года назад

I agree! Any chance you could do a deep dive into the remote controller? It's new and there's not much on RU-vid about it yet

@Dcrainmaker 2 года назад

@@JasonScarborough1 Yup! I was looking to do perhaps a deep-dive on features, but somewhat comparative to the DJI RC Pro in terms of what's offered there. Or, maybe it'll just be a deep-dive for the DJI RC itself. I've got most of the details written up already, so might be a weekend project.

@HlGHPlNG Год назад

I don't own a drone, or even have plans to get one in the near future... and yet, I still just spent an hour watching your whole video. I think that says a lot about the quality of the content here. It was very interesting to learn about the current capabilities of a consumer drone. You did an excellent job of conveying all the info. I not only think I have a pretty full understanding of the use of this drone now, but you also gave some great info that seems it would apply to drones in general. Two thumbs up, sir.

Hi, I also found this video in the link on your high wind video. I’m glad that I did. I just ordered a mini 3 pro yesterday from DJI at it's launch. This will be my first drone. I am a commercially licensed fixed-wing, glider, and free balloon pilot plus I shoot still photography professionally (currently horse racing). Even with this background, I find challenges in learning remote controlled aero video photography stimulating but sometimes overwhelming (and not having the drone in hand to practice with is not making learning easy). Your video instruction is by far the clearest and most complete that I have yet to view, thank you.

@DanielBerke 2 года назад

Thanks for this and your other videos, I'm planning on getting the Mini 3 as my first drone (mostly for landscape photography/videography here in Hawaii). I've spent a few minutes flying other peoples' drones, but that's a far cry from owning my own so it's good to have a "first timer" tutorial.

@Dcrainmaker 2 года назад

Thanks - appreciate it! And lucky you on the Hawaii choice. I was looking at some drone regulation maps there a few days ago for a potential trip later this year, are there many state-driven no-fly zones to worry about (for parks), that might not show up on the FAA ones?

@DanielBerke 2 года назад

@@Dcrainmaker Oh, nice! With the caveat that I'm on Hawaiʻi island (the Big Island), so that's what I know best: the big ones I know of are the two national parks (Hawai'i Volcanoes NP and Haleakalā NP) on Hawaiʻi and Maui islands, which don't show up on either the FAA map or DJI's geofencing as no-fly zones. I also noticed while I was at Maunakea in November that there were no-drone signs posted both at the visitor information station (2.8 km) and the summit (~4 km), so it's possible the entire Mauna Kea Ice Age Natural Area Reserve (which covers the area around the summit down to approximately 3 km) is off-limits. DJI's map shows a few more places such as military installations that aren't listed on the FAA map, but that's all the unlisted places I'm aware of at the moment. If I find any more once I'm out and about with my new drone (ordered two days ago!) I'll drop another reply.

@Rob_1010 Год назад

Really great video, I’m switching from the Mavic 2 Pro to Mini 3 Pro due to UK regulations etc and so wanted to learn more about how the DJI Fly app worked. Only thing I would say is that I wouldn’t recommend flipping the drone to stop it when hand landing, it puts extra strain on the motors which isn’t needed. I generally hold my hand underneath, then push down on the stick to land it directly into my hand, keep holding down until the motors stop, as if it were a normal ground landing. Other than loved the video and very helpful.

@TekMonkHD Год назад

+1 for landing in hand and pressing down on thumb stick to land. It shuts the motors off almost immediately and dont risk catchin your wrist with a prop too.

@temax Год назад

@@TekMonkHD COuld you guys explain this better? What exactly do you press down? What is the thumb stick? Thanks!

@gibsonrocker17 Год назад

Thank you so much for this! Just ordered one for myself and am super excited to become proficient with it. Honestly, one of the things I'm most impressed with in your video is how well it's handling the wind and how good the gimbal stabilization is. Given the fact the wind is quite audible in your mic, I'm assuming you probably had 15-20mph winds that day while you were recording. I'll be interested to see how it does in my own usage, since I live in Utah and it's relatively rare to have a calm day out here. I won't use it on any crazy wind days, but I'm very interested in learning this new skill... Plus, I'll need to learn another skill with video editing. Fortunately, I'm already proficient in photo editing, but it's cool to jump head first into a new realm!

@mjklein Год назад

A really great tutorial for someone considering getting a Mini 3. One thing I don't understand is that, if the camera is mounted on gimbal and can point in virtually any direction, why doesn't the drone position itself to fly diagonally for side shots so the object avoidance system is at least partially covering the direction of flight?

@LeesChannel Год назад

depending on your speed it probably does
