CHECK OUT MY 2020 NEW & IMPROVED 'How to fly a drone' video (featuring the DJI Mavic Mini) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nxJ1mUsU1V0.html
I'm a 70-year old Grandpa and a first time DJI Phantom 3 drone pilot. By far, your videos have made the process of learning to fly the Phantom 3 IMMEASURABLY easier! Thanks for taking the time to put these videos together. You've definitely outshone the DJI productions. Keep up the great work! And tell your folks they better damn well be proud of the job their son is doing. ;-)
In other situations such as camera batteries I would a lot of the time say yes but in this case of a DJI Phantom I would like to say no. Although they are cheaper and look nearly identical to the DJI made batteries, they don't always deliver the full amount of power to the drone that it needs. Also, the non DJI batteries aren't as "smart" as the DJI version most of the time and the smart functionality is best for safety and compatibility. If you'd like to risk losing your drone sometime possibly I would day you could go for after market batteries but if you'd like to play it safe, I'd say make sure to buy a DJI certified battery:) Hope this helps!!
Nice job young man........ Very clear, important, and very well presented instruction. You obviously have a good knack for explaining things without taking up half of the video telling us what your about to try to tell us, then by time your done never tell us :-))

I got a $80 dollar drone, and really like it. (8 minute fly time sucks) I'm looking into getting this, it's a very solid drone for $500. Thanks for the great video.
Thank you for such a great video!! I recently bought a DJI Phantom 3 standard. But for the moment I"m practicing muscle memory by flying a cheap toy drone. If I crash that, no worries.
Thank you for going thru this for us. As a new to drone and cell phones grandfather it is helpful. I will have to watch it once or twice. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Bro, you make really awesome vids! You even record in 4k!?!? You just explain the stuff perfectly. I subscribed the video before this. Which was the first video I saw of you anyway.
Hi mate, any chance of a video on how you managed to configure the Unifi usg onto your network? With the ip issues ? I’m having the same issues , thank you mate
I'm thinking of using my drone (I've just bought it online), for security work. One question I have to the term "unobstructed". I'd like to fly this drone around a large metal clad building in order to do a circuit. Just so you know, I've bought a Phantom 3 advanced, as it was advertized as having a longer range, as well as an antenna booster. But thanks to you video, I think I have the solution in that I'd just set the auto return to be higher than the building in question. SO another question. If I was currently flying below said height of the building when it loses connection, would it automatically go up to the preset height before returning?
Just bought a drone and only then did I think of the legal ramifications. Found out that Transport Canada has some stringent flight rules for the area I wanted to use it in. Still, I'll be moving soon enough, hopefully to a less built up area. Anyways, thanks for your reply, your videos are great BTW.
@@carsonmtech thanks 🙏 💐 Dear Namaste 🙏. Haw much coast this dron.this drone made in? One time Battery charj Haw much time flying? Please reply 🙏🏻🕉️ 🚩🍇🍎🍊
Actually he looks alot like slimecicle whos name is also named carson could be just the same person. Or was his name carson oh no it wasnt it was another dude whit a channel callmeCarson.
Yep it's attached for recording purposes haha but other than that, there's no place to plug in a USB on the controller if that's what you may have been thinking haha
I bought via eBay a DJI Mavik Combo. Due in Tuesday. My phone is crappy so I bought a Apple 7 plus with 128 MB. Coming friday. My question for you. What if I ain't in range of a wifi connection? My house has Wifi but it doesn't go far. ( I was gonna buy a paraglider but decided to save some money...I even dream of flying) Nice video and Thanks in advance.
Hi there Michael! You absolutely do not need WiFi internet connection at all for any DJI drone other than for the initial download of the DJI Go app, registering an account, and then if there is a firmware upgrade you'll need it for that. Other than that, all you need is your phone which will directly attach to the controller via the lighting port!! Hope this helps:)
The battery typically only lasts me around 20-22 minutes before I have to land due to the battery being below 10%. I would suggest buying a second or third battery only if a.) you need a longer recording time and b.) asa long as you don't plan on buying a Phantom 4 anytime soon as the batteries are roughly the same price (around $100) and they aren't compatible with each other. :/
Nicely done! As for me I usually turn on the record just before I spin up my motors. The reason being is a few times when I first started flying drones I forgot to turn on record and missed the shot I was wanting. Just a suggestion.
When calibrating your compass, you hold your drone horizontally and spin counter clockwise. Once complete, turn your drone’s nose face down, not sideways, and repeat your spin again until complete. I see cows! 😃
im thinking about investing in a dji drone. I just had bad luck flying other models, from your tutorial looks pretty easy. I seen people really fly this thing, like go sky high then send it down and then just halt at stop. You think this is a good drone for a beginner flyer?
I am interested in purchasing my first Phantom, However I have NO idea "from whom" is the best to purchase from. IF there are issues or if it shows up damaged, who should I but it from: Amazon, DJI themselves, where?
I would highly recommend Amazon as their prices are (usually) always the cheapest and their return process is incredibly easy. Amazon has a 30 day return policy that if anything is damaged, missing, etc. then you can easily just return it in the box it came in. The DJI website is similar however, they only allow returns up to 14 days after you receive an item. Whenever you choose to purchase, the packaging that mine came in was really sturdy so my guess is it’ll be fine. Hopefully this helps you out! PS: if you’d like to support me in the process of you getting a drone, consider purchasing through my Amazon affiliate link (www.amazon.com/shop/carsonmtech) or my DJI affiliate link (click.dji.com/AJLpIjn8hOuMALNU6d7V?pm=link). Thanks :)
1-why do you have phone on cable to controler? are you charging or what? 2-can you make ft fo meters? 3-where storage the videos and photos you make? on phone or has drone sd card in?
1.) I have my iPhone plugged into my MacBook Pro to record my screen via Quicktime Player 2.) Yes it's very easy to change in settings (in fact, when you first download the app, it actually is set to meters by default and you have to change it to miles later if you would like) 3.) The videos and photos you take are saved to both your mobile device as a lower quality and also in higher quality to a micro SD card on the camera of the drone itself. Hopefully this helps you out!
LOL, we were laughing about that little cow that was in your driveway. :-D But seriously, your video was very impressive and helpful. Thank you for taking the time to put it together!
