FlytPath hey sir I just watch this..is this really suitable for the begiiner?

[@AceVideosOfficial]

This is just one of the best tutorials on anything tech. Period.

[@FlytPath]

Awesome thanks

[@SongbirdRanch2005]

thank you for the details instruction. I am a little bit nervous getting ready to fly this drone.

[@karengibbs5213]

We bought a Mavic Pro at an Agricultural Field day in New South Wales, Australia, earlier this week. My husband convinced me that it would be great for checking cattle and water troughs. Neither of us have ever flown a drone before. Hmmmm, I thought! After reading the manual checking some forums and tutorials, I found your videos. THANK YOU! They are clear, concise and informative without being too technical. We had our first series of successful flights this morning with no drama at all. Thanks also for the discount coupon on the Mavmount! Big thumbs up from a couple of Aussie farmers in their fifties....lol! 👍

[@FlytPath]

That is so awesome to hear. Thanks for sharing your story as well.

[@normk5761]

You're by far the best in this sector! As a very advanced drone pilot you're able to step back and remember how it was when you started, then effectively educate in a easy to understand manner. Thanks very much for all you do.

[@FlytPath]

That means a lot thank you

[@Al-Gore-ithm]

I absolutely agree. Just got my 1st drone and god only knows how many videos I've watched and walked away w very little info. This was packed full of information I needed as a noob.

[@masoudmalek-kazaranian1350]

Thank you for the video, I found it extremely informative

[@chrisnotap]

You've done a great job of hitting all the most important points! Everything I watched before yours was crap.Yours is by far the best! Good job.

[@FlytPath]

That means a lot thanks Chris

[@gregbosetti3744]

Great Job! Very helpful.. too many infomercials are not specific..

Hi I've got QUADCOPTER CSMERA DRONE

[@johnobrien8025]

How do I set it up

[@barrysharp1151]

I bought my Mavic yesterday. Your video is the BEST out there for giving a newbie a complete overview on how to get going. Thank you very much.

[@FlytPath]

Barry Sharp that means a lot. Thanks for the comments

[@wendycain7225]

Dont know what I would have done without your videos, as a newbie you need this guidance, thanks

[@patrickfuston8986]

Just bought my Mavic. Been reading the instructions for 2 days and felt overwhelmed. Just watched your video and it all makes much more sense. Thanks! I will be checking out your other videos and am excited for my first flight.

[@skippyi6969]

Best beginner mavic user ive seen so far. thanks for making these

[@FlytPath]

Thank you

[@joehopper2274]

Thank you. Been a Mavis Pro owner since its release. Haven’t flown it for a couple of years. Brought it to Florida with us this winter and watched this video as a refresher course. Very, very helpful and I took notes. Getting ready to fly and photo/video our incredible surroundings.

[@Wireless1580]

This is the best tutorial i have ever seen.. You are such a good teacher.. Thanks a lot...

[@Wireless1580]

I did my first flight today with my mavic 2 zoom, with your clear explanation and step by step tutorials i got used to flying my mavic right away.. Thanks again..

[@chrisescudero4714]

Your instructional videos are the best. No nonsense just straight to the point. Thank you soo much.

[@draperphotography2471]

What a great teacher you are! Appreciate it!

[@FlytPath]

Thanks for watching

[@ryanwhitfield5917]

Had my mavic pro platinum for over a week now. Paid the extra to have the drone setup and tested. Using your videos as a guide before even removing from the box. Brilliant content and very simplified. Top job 👍🏻

[@nadeemnaik786]

I don't have a mavic yet. I am going to buy one soon. So I was browsing to soak in what is out there. I find your to be the finest packed instruction guide. Thank you.

[@MikeNEVILLE-xf4bc]

New mavic pro user here, this is a huge help as no instructions came with,

[@mountainmikeoutdoors]

Just bought my Mavic Pro yesterday. This video was EXTREMELY helpful. You're the man.

[@saintmastajohn8092]

Mountain Mike have fun with it 😀

[@midnight4456]

@Mountain Mike I’am considering buying the Mavic Pro Platinum. But my parents restricted me from buying it because of COVID-19. Hopefully be able to get it by October

[@mybenwong]

I would recommend this video for all Mavic Pro Beginners bcoz you get all the information you need. I wished I have seen this video when I first started off and got all the info I need in one video rather than watching several lengthy videos that is too comprehensive for a beginner. Truly an Awesome video and will get you safely flying your DJI Mavic Pro. Well done and Thank you FlytPath.

[@FlytPath]

So awesome to hear. Thank you

[@mattcasarez4054]

Just bought a mavic, really good video and will help me out a lot, thanks

[@EricRosenwaldPhotography]

Wonderful videos! Drone tutorial and informational videos too often include horrible attempts at comedy and endless rambling. Thanks for your no-nonsense, refreshingly concise work. You show that a video be upbeat and lively without the eye-roller antics.

[@krlyons101]

Thanks so much! Being a newbie, you showed me some important information and settings I didn’t know! Ken

[@neilreid9005]

Great vid! Thank you for the basic instruction. Clear, concise and on point. Thank you from a guy who just picked up a Mavic Pro yesterday. Excited!

[@natepate6117]

Man out of all the videos on this topic I really think yours his by far the best. Very thorough and informative, even as a pilot for a few months now I enjoyed the information you are putting out there. I strongly suggest that everyone watches this before they use there Mavic Pro.

[@FlytPath]

nate pate that means a lot thank you

[@vertigev]

Same here, not sure how I got here but I'm staying. Subbed.

Still helping too I’m taking my drone to Balboa park today for my first flight , feeling confident about it thanks

[@pianomatt1022]

@@vickygraf7157 easy... I joked around with wife to start a repair business lol.. but it's just a lot cheaper to buy new ones. Atleast incandescent. LEDs diff. Price

[@PDXTundra]

Hello! I’ve been considering a drone and lo and behold my workmate sold me his used Mavic Pro for $200 with tons of accessories this week. He’s replaced it with the Mavic Pro 2. I’ve sub’d to various channels and watched a lot of videos on first setup and first flight, but I must say this video of yours and the other you made on initial setup (Part 1) as new out of the box were probably the best of the bunch. Extremely clear presentation in both videos by you without the usual load of unnecessary BS and they took away the guesswork and anxiety of the first flight. Love the videos, and I’ve sub’d your channel. Thanks!

[@ardisupartha6054]

Man, thank you for uploading this. So informative and easy to understand.

[@samuelpalumbo1177]

Aldryn your videos are super helpful, much easier to watch than too read that tiny manual. Thank you man.

[@royboy6252]

Great video. Thanks for sharing some very important but basic items for the Mavic. I "liked" and subscribed. Now I'll watch ALL your other videos. Keep up the great work.

[@FlytPath]

Roy Reiner awesome thanks for subbing. Glad you found some good value from my vids.

[@tidbitsofgrace1477]

I got my mavic today and the manual is in korean since I am here in Seoul. I watched a lot of videos about mavic set up, but yours are the ones i saved. Very helpful for beginners like me. Very simple. Thanks. I now feel like I belong to a fraternity of flyers. Lol

[@FlytPath]

Welcome to the frat

[@rustyshackleford3647]

Excellent! I've been watching many videos to familiarize myself before flying. I bought the pro bundle a month ago or so and have never flown. I have several of the new generation RC planes (electric/lithium ion cell), but still practicing on simulator. The best thing I picked up on this was your take on orientation. Great method.. with planes, you have to maintain speed and can't fly in reverse.. makes practice tough and expensive. I can't wait to get started, but this day off is a soaker.. foiled again!

[@FlytPath]

Happy flying

[@aprilbrown9778]

I've read the directions a hundred times. Waste of time but this video is awesome. Thank you.

[@biglittlefilms4382]

Excellent instruction, very thorough and good information.

[@FlytPath]

Thank you. Glad you found value from it

[@InkDropCustoms]

By far one of the better videos on the DJI products

[@topixfromthetropix1674]

Good video, I would suggest showing new pilots about setting the HOME position before flying away. Everything else was spot on!

[@azbluefox]

VERY helpful video !! I bought a Mavic 2 Pro a few day's ago and have never flown a Drone before. Your video got me flying right away with no incidents or accidents. I also watched your video on the 'MavMount' and will be ordering one soon. Thanks.

[@colin3150]

Great video. I have never had a drone, I am buying a Mavic Pro 2 so very interested in your videos

[@Gray32223]

I haven't purchased mine yet but your video has given me to confidence to go ahead and do so. I've watched a bunch but this is by far the best for a beginner.

[@FlytPath]

Gray Quetti thanks gray

[@Stakeouttoo]

excellent well made thorough how-to video.. well demonstrated and explained.. top notch.. kudos :)

[@FlytPath]

Awesome to hear, thanks

[@wyliewweeks]

Thanks so much. I’m watching the set up and this video over and over again. I could never have understood this by reading it. Thanks again.

[@danfrance4943]

Awesome Video... Informative, to the point and cool. I’ve just ordered the Mavic 2 Zoom, it’s my first ever drone and at the price I don’t wanna break it lol. Thank you for the tips dude! Keep these videos coming 😎

[@chadgilmore5046]

I am planning on getting this drone every DJI drone I have bought I always watch your videos rather than the instructions it is so much easier and you explain everything in detail...Great Vid👍

[@TheReal-HopeBoykinDance]

Took my first flight today, a whole 3 minutes. Thanks for your clarity!!! Great information and tutorials!

[@FlytPath]

HopeBoykinDance that's great to hear. No need to rush it. Take your time.

[@philippegueissaz5929]

Thank you Aldryn. I just watched a couple of your videos. I bought a mavic pro yesterday. I followed your instructions and I managed to do a first manual flight earlier today. Great stuff

[@FlytPath]

Awesome to hear

[@timstraveltruck7724]

Hey Aldryn, having just bought my Mavic Pro and waiting impatiently to go get my basic training and license as required here in Dubai before I can fly it, I started looking for 'Beginner's Guides" to using a Mavic. Luckily I found yours early on and can I just say they are excellent. Clear, precise, well presented, you cover everything, and they're easy to watch so I find myself paying attention to the Tips, not thinking "But why....?", "But how....?"- because you've covered it. Really well done - DJI should be using you, not "Ty" to present their products. I couldn't watch theirs, I had to switch them off!

[@FlytPath]

Wow Tim I really appreciate your comments. Means a lot to hear that after all the work put in. Thanks again

[@msNiCH07]

Same here Tim, I'm from Dubai too. :) really learned a lot from this video as a beginner.

[@DnaAQW]

wait you need training for that as well??

[@vogelkonig129]

I just bought a mavic pro and this video was really helpful and informative. I've got the feeling that the video will hit the 100k views :)

[@FlytPath]

Thanks glad it helped. 100k would be nice :)

[@ohHeyKev]

Try 800k ;)

[@allrounder7390]

Thanks for the video. This is what got my Mavic out of the box and in the air. Really appreciate your efforts here mate.

[@FlytPath]

Thanks for watching

[@foregroundmedia]

Bro, THANKYOU so much. Just bought a mavic & ur vids are awesome... ooooone small thing (as I'm a video producer), I think ur audio is clipping/distorting (2 vids i've seen now).. Am more than happy to help get ur recording setting right if need... Don't let that tech issue detract from your awesome content! Cheers man.. ;)

[@FlytPath]

Gavin Emmanuel thanks I really appreciate it. I'll check into that audio thing too.

[@bergatube60]

I totally agree, Your vid is absolutely great, one might think,that You have professional skills as an educator Many other guys on KZbin thinks that it is a question of talking as fast as possible and rush through their info, leaving the spectator without a clue of what it is about Your changing in speech and videodocumention is perfectly timed Thanks from a newcommer in the “Mavic world” This instruvtion is by far the best on thetube. Thanks for your effort

[@davidjermy2524]

Thanks Buddy, just bought a Mavic today. Your videos have been extremely helpful. Big thanks. David👍

[@joyswizz]

spend whole day in your channel watching all beginners guide, now i am ready for my first ever Drone flight, sooo excited. Thanks for this video. 👍👏

[@FlytPath]

Baby steps until u get more comfortable.

[@joyswizz]

@@FlytPath I watched and followed and even take all notes the guide Beginner video you have. It all good, so happy i can fly it first time with your help. But one thing failed me is my video are partly blurry and washed out. I went out 3hours later in the field and tried but still the footage are worst, so frustrating. Did i miss something or my camera lens defect? Hope to get feedback and thanks in advance. Any TIps? Regards all the way from Switzerland👍🤦

[@alsobrook4336]

Hello replying to my comment about the green blur I fixed it that App had a glitch I reloaded it and my iPad works great now thank you anyway have a great day and I like your videos I'm still watching because I just bought my mavic and I do not want to apply at other than beginner mode until I learn more

[@FlytPath]

Nice. Happy flying Brian

[@solman57]

[@FlytPath]

Awesome!! Get out and fly!!!!

[@ellobo1326]

I just ordered a mavic 2 pro today. Your videos are really helpful. I have a phantom 3 I purchased new several years ago. I haven't flown in over a year so I'm sure I'm rusty. Keep pumping out the videos. They are helpful and appreciated !

[@vishuscirquel]

Thanks, your video helps a lot. My first Mavic had gimbal issues right out of the box, just got the new one back, i'm nervous about this thing now. Subbed.

[@FlytPath]

Thank you. Glad you got it fixed. Feel free to message if you gave questions.

[@vishuscirquel]

just got it up and down safely...lol...its a start! Definitely will message you with questions as they arise.

[@FlytPath]

Baby steps. It's easy to get over confident.

I got a mavic pro and this video done the job for me by helping me set it up and fly it for the first time!!!👍

[@FlytPath]

Great to hear

[@MadDestroyer93]

Besides calibrating the compas, would you also recommend calibrating the IMU everytime we fly?

[@FlytPath]

I do an imu when I first purchase the drone and then only after it tells me in the app. Also if you ever. Have a small crash or feel it’s drifting would I do it.

[@erictiffanyRN]

This is the best instructional video ever. Thank you!

[@FlytPath]

Nice thanks Eric. Glad it helped.

[@vistagraphsnet]

I just tried to fly my drone for the first time and ran into this problem: I live 3 mile from a class D airport (no tower no operator) and got the message telling me to use caution and there was a YES to click on, I could not get rid of the YES and the essage prevented me from seeing anything on my Iphone X. So I flew it anyway visually. Unfortunately I could not see the still photo button or the video buttons so guessed at it, I hear the click so I knew I got one photo. I contacted tech support who told me to download the Go 4 software again. I will find out tomorrow if it works ( too dark to fly now). Your video is great but you forgot to calibrate the compass.

[@FlytPath]

vistagraphsnet calibration is at 3:50

[@marindaswanepoel2291]

Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa. Just got my new Mavic Pro Platinum and very keen to take it out this morning for a test. Great tips thank you. Looking forward to watch the rest of your videos!

[@FlytPath]

Thanks for watching

[@thomasvasquez9758]

Very clear and concise video. Haven’t bought a drone yet, still researching, but you’ve given me a lot of tips on what to do and not to do, thanks. I do have a question regarding flying a drone near a international airport. What might be the restrictions if any. Thanks again and look forward to your response.

[@FlytPath]

Thanks I appreciate that. I wouldn’t know international regulations but I’m sure you can find some info online about specific ones.

[@Syclone0044]

THomas VAsquez The DJI GO app you fly with, has a “GEO Zone” auto updated database of no fly zones and restricted zones. It will not let you fly there depending on the level of restriction. So you could download the app and tap “Enter equipment” and “Camera view without connection” will let you see the main drone screen even without owning a drone. Then look around your area. Make sure you let the app perform all its updates, there are 3-7 categories of updates in the About section.

[@thomasvasquez9758]

Syclone0044 Hey Syclone, that’s for the follow-up, appreciate the info. Will look into that app for sure.

[@Kenozaguy]

Came here from your Mavic 2 setup video. Outstanding information for new Mavic users. Thanks so much!

[@ImaginaryArts4281]

Hi there sir! I've been following your videos for a while, and now I already purchased my own Mavic Pro, but I just wanted to share my experience with my Mavic it happens that I've encountered this message "Rc remote control signal lost" I don't know why I have encountered this one? Before this happens I just try to push my mavic to its range in my hometown and it reached about 2000ft distance and 200ft height, then I decided to comeback facing forward to where my homepoint is, but when it reaches about 300ft distance and still 200ft height, this happens "RC remote control signal lost" I was freak out and thinking my mavic flies aways, I don't have eyes on my screen, so what I did I come out to my house and tries to see if I could see it line of sight, then gladly it was just hovering outside! so I did land it manually, I can still control it to my remote control but then again I cant see anything on my screen. Any ideas sir? what causes this one?

[@billwagy]

Wonderful job teaching me the basics! Thank you so much. You are a terrific teacher.

[@FlytPath]

[@r12rtpilot]

Great tutorial....someone just gave me a Mini and a Pro, so I am drone rich. Never flown a drone before so your videos have been indispensable! Liked and subscribed

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

FIRST TIP... SHOULD BE... NAME ADDRESS & PHONE NUMBER LABEL ON THE DRONE! I LOST A GPS DRONE BECAUSE I DIDN'T CALIBRATE THE GPS CORRECTLY AND IT WAS FLYING IN WIFI MODE. Your GPS drone will not fly back to home if it's flying in Wi-Fi mode and loses signal. When setting a drone on a flat surface do not use concrete because there's metal inside of it and the metal might be magnetic which will throw off your calibration. Use a picnic table or do the calibration in your hand

[@WuschelofDespair]

Fun fact: it’s illegal in Germany to Fly a Drone without such a Label 🙂

[@pll66]

Awesome - thanks so much!! Your videos have made Christmas that much better with some great directions and safe flight info!

[@Consilior]

super helpful for this beginner. a must see. simple and easy to follow, step by step instructions. Great job. thank you!!
