Agree with Idaho Quadcopter. I have not purchased my first drone (gotta wait until after Jan. 1st). But, I have watched many, many other RU-vid tutorials and you're very thorough on what drone pilots need to know. I've had too many photog friends... fly them once and crash or have fly-offs.Thanks

Ed, compliments on an excellent beginner video. One thing that makes it so amazing is that some that will watch it have yet to see any of your videos with FPV drones. To see that much talented experience be able to explain the basics to get started in this very effective manner is fantastic. Thank you

@KurtFeldner 4 года назад

Just got my Mini two days ago & this evening, have watched many different videos to help me learn & understand this drone. I'll have to say....your video is the BEST I've seen all night. SO detailed in many ways and for a newbie, this is exactly what I needed to see. Thank you! Looking forward to watching more of your programming!

I gotta admit, I'm a little nervous with so much to learn. Hope you had a good first flight. I'm going to get mine registered, and try my first flight after some coffee. Gotta get my eyes open first. I was just curious how your first flight went. Cheers ..

@tonytubini6399 Год назад

I'm so pleased I watched this before my drone arrived, I'm a 71yr old and VERY inexperienced drone pilot and only flown a couple of cheap toy drones before. I thought I'd get something a little better while I still tread the daisies just waiting for my refurbished Mavic Mini to arrive thinking it would be like the toys until I saw how comprehensive the program is. Your excellent video has shown me how wrong I was by thinking my Mini was going to be like the others, I had no idea how much was in the program but now after watching this I at least know what I'm in for, very exciting, thanks so much.

Dude, you are flying in a park really close to where I used to live! I lived in the Raleigh area for over 15 years. Looks like you are at Dorothea Dix, or the dog park right next to it, it seems. So cool!

@@parry4now Have you ever flown a drown prior to this drone? A lot of users assume they can fly right away. If you are in Dartmouth you may be in a flight restrictions area like Shearwater flight zone. If you buy from Bestbuy and have issues drop into Dr drone on Baker drive. They can help with all your issues that are DJI related that is.

@VanquisherUSMC 4 года назад

Pro tip- For fixing cracks in plastic, use a product called weld on. It's usually a liquid or syrup paste that melts the plastic and bonds it back together like it came from the factory. It doesn't work with all plastic, but give it a try or research the type of plastic you have. I use it in my sign manufacturing business. It's pretty cool stuff!!! Good video BTW. This is my first non toy quad!
