[@jeremysuitor1398]

How do you change the takeoff to moving the left joystick up to take off instead of on the controller press take off and slide right

Thank you for this... makes it easy for lazy guys like me!

[@davidpierson]

@@DonaldLL825 No worries at all. Here to help mate! Hope you are doing well at this time 😊

thanks brotha

[@imiey_ridzuan]

David this setting best for cinematic footage recording ?

[@davidpierson]

@@imiey_ridzuan definitely. I shoot these settings

[@patrickswell6087]

Wow, I leaned more in this 6 minute edit than I have scrupulously reading and experimenting for over a month, now. You're, killin' it!

[@mikebilek1810]

I just discovered your channel last week and have been combing through your videos diligently in preparation for my arrival of my very own hormonal teenager:) I love your content and the sarcastic humor you include in your videos. I'm certain these tips will enable me to hit the ground running when my Mavic Pro arrives. Sorry I didn't purchase through your links, but now that I know a little about how you-tubers make money and how consumers can support your channel, I will definitely be conscious of that the next time I make a purchase:) Good up the good work!!

[@bigoil7]

You mentioned accidentally stopping the blades and falling out of the sky. The CSC (Combination Stick Command) bit me once. I was recording for the motorcycle police, and was just hovering while waiting for the instructor to quit talking. I looked up and noticed they were all getting back on their bikes. This was a little ways away from me, so I really didn't hear my drone, andI forgot I was hovering. Out of habit, pulled the sticks down and out to start the blades and take off. Dropped 20 feet instantly, and fortunately, not on a police officer, lol. Cost me $500 for new camera and legs for my Phantom 3 Pro. My Mavic is being delivered by a brown truck today, so I am glad to see it has the CSC for "Breakdown Only" option. Love the vids Ed, thanks!

[@YellowRoseDrones]

18 months later and your advice is still pertinent. Thanks. I just got mine last month.

[@Ffm88]

You are the first person who has that advance settings in gimbal... i don't have the smooth gimbal... I have the same like you and your configuration and the video helps me a lot. Thanx man!

[@christopheroshea1978]

My Mavic now responding much better. I can only thank you for the hours of counseling you've saved.

[@NorCalHkyplayer]

Just got a Mavic, Your videos are by far the most entertaining and the most info given ...Thanks

[@cchilvers2]

Thank you for presenting in a concise and normal way and not like some of the lunatics that are far too frequent on you tube instructional videos.

[@patricktucker1208]

Thanks for talking about the "Always/Breakdown" part. I don't think I've heard anyone else mention it. Seems like it should be number one on any of the beginner tutorials for the Mavic, or any drone that has that option. You're probably right, many people have probably lost their drones because of this. Also, love your videos. They are the most informative, and you are by far the easiest to learn from. My Mavic should be here within the week, and watching your videos makes me feel like I'm already flying it. I've only had a few minutes on a friends Mavic, but I've got a couple hours on a Phantom 4 at work. I've never had the time to adjust ANY settings, or figure out any Intelligent Flight Modes, but thanks to your channel I think it'll be a walk in the park now!

[@Smashed__Crab]

First video I've seen talking about the urgent stop mode and some great tips for smooth flying. Thanks.

[@HunterFoy]

Great breakdown, love the text overlays explaining each item in practical terms. Keep up the awesome work man!

[@donaldmartim6249]

Hunter F I tried,those,settings and my mavric still turns to,fast in the,air,how do you make your mavric turn,slow in the,air I have tried every setting the exp sentivety and still turns to fast in the air i already made my gimble go up down slowly but I can't get my drone to turn slow in the air

[@aodrones3527]

use tri pod mode

[@rickf4401]

Excellent!! Loaded with information. I will be watching this video several times to make sure I get all the tips you provide. Thanks!

[@PhilAbilitys]

Coolest video tutorial yet I think that is best I have seen for tutorials to date.all best.

[@shisso]

At 0:21. The robotic turn away and keeping eyes glued to camera has to be funniest part of this video!

[@topilot]

I applaud the work you are doing, Ed! I have been watching most all of your videos and am especially glad that you have posted many of them about the Mavic Pro. I have already made about 6 flights and did see that it was a little abrupt on braking, etc. I went ahead and did the changes that you recommended and will test them out next time I go fly. Not only am I a licensed fixed wing commercial pilot and flight instructor, but found that the quadcopter is almost as much fun. I am really into photography and the Mavic is the perfect match for my dual hobbies!

[@flyfishntn]

Good job, you not only explain why but actually explain what is taking place.

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Thanks!

[@joelhampton7157]

Best intro I have ever seen! I was laughing so hard when your face changed while flying. Keep making more drone videos. They are great!

[@crazymark3556]

Great videos on mavic pro, Ed. You are a great help with my new drone.

[@kenalverson9755]

I ordered the Mavic Pro on Amazon on Jan 3rd. Twice they gave me a delivery date between Feb 3 - Feb 23. They have retracted the delivery dates twice and now shows March 20th as the release date. DJI store now says they ship in a week. Buy from Ed and subscribe. He takes great videos and explains things well. Sorry Ed, I bought mine through the DJI store last week before your link.

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Hey Ken, thanks for watching! So your order says March 20??? That's a hell of a wait! Hope it updates again for a sooner date. Good luck!

[@kenalverson9755]

Ed Ricker Vlogs - Ed, It should ship from DJI this week since I ordered it from them online last week. I am going to cancel the Amazon order. Thanks for posting your videos. I can tell you have experience in photography and your videos show that. I watched your unboxing. Mine is also a gift to myself. My wife hates it when she finds a gift from Santa to under the tree for me. Last year it was a Gibson Les Paul Custom Silverburst. Santa has a good taste in guitars too. Thanks for sharing your videos and making them entertaining as well as informative. I'll keep recommending them and give you a thumbs up.

[@philstickney6954]

Well done Ed. I made the changes and looks great.

[@henrybockmon9398]

Thank you very much for making these videos. Educational and entertaining. Much appreciated.

[@jaysmart]

Best video I have watch so far. I just flew my mavic for the first time yesterday and everything was just too fast and not a smooth look that i was looking for

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Thanks! Glad to help

[@staminem]

I thoroughly enjoy your videos, you're doing an outstanding job! Subscribed and excited for more.

[@PeterKNoone]

Super helpful videos! I'm waiting for UPS to deliver my Mavic Pro and feel prepared for flight thanks to your awesome work. Subscribed!

I'm new to the drone world and your mavic videos have been very helpful. Thanks, and keep them coming.

[@Mjhm5870oy]

Thank you. I wanted to make adjustments to my settings and you made it very easy to do so. I will test these out today. I now have the knowledge to make adjustments depending on the setting and goals of my projects in the future. Thanks again!

Thanks for this. Just reinsured some of the settings that I've been changing.

[@Freddysjodati]

Ed...enjoyed your video! Well thought out and executed...Have you come up with a printable checklist on where you think the settings should be for newbie's like me?

[@MVaseghi]

Love the intro! Keep up the great work Ed.

[@ekolbatx]

Thanks so much for these tips Ed. You rock!

[@eburn71]

Thanks Ed. I like the way the videos look. Is there a next opportunity where you can share how you created this look? I have often similar light conditions, but not able to get the nice look you have achieved.

[@eburn71]

ah, i just watched your post on the filters, likely that is an element used to get the look.

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Actually I shot these clips before the filters arrived! It was just a reeeally amazing day after some snowfall with the streaming through the ice on the trees. I used the Beach color scheme (it's changed names now to something else in the Go app). I hope to make a video about video color schemes in the near future, subscribe and stay tuned!

[@alexgti9345]

very good job with this video.. love your sense of humor at the beginning of the video, best intro ever ! LOL

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Hey buddy great video. I am new to mavic world. Do you know what mode do I choose to fly backwards with camera facing me?

[@zanezulywitz8979]

Great job. I've noticed some jerky motions when I'm flying I'll try these

Superb instruction. Thx a lot !

[@travelprn2696]

Thank you for the video, very helpful!

[@TheEmp1]

Hi Edd any chance of doing an updated version of this ? with updates to the app its changed a little

[@1lifeonearth]

1:34 is there a reason you plug your phone in through the bottom and not the top left side? are there pros or cons to this? thanks

[@EdRickerVlogs]

At the time I was using a cellphone with a plug that wasn't in the center of the phone, but rather far down to one side. So the included DJI cable for the side port was too short, and I can to reroute it underneath. No other pros or cons though.

[@1lifeonearth]

@@EdRickerVlogs Oh I see, that makes sense, thanks!

[@franklenarczyk9194]

Enjoyed your vIdeo, learned a lot. I’ve noticed that certain settings on your remote differ from mine. For instance on the “urgent stop mode” that the rectangular box on your remote says “breakdown “ while mine says “for use in emergencies only” and when you click on the box you can also choose “CSC maneuver .” What is CSC maneuver? There are other areas on your remote that you can make changes to that influence the movement of the drone that don’t exist on mine. By the way I am talking about mavic Pro platinum remote and drone. Thanks .

[@VideoUpskill]

This was awesome, so easy to follow and understand, cheers

[@junkerjunk]

Has the menu changed since this came out? I followed these instructions a year ago and it helped tremendously. But after having my MPP replaced with another one, the menu doesn't exactly match what is seen in the video now. ??

[@Primo_extracts]

Your intro is so funny bro "let's get started" 😂😂

[@AtortAerials]

I feel no matter what I adjust those exp settings at it is still too abrupt of a movement. I wish it wasn’t a curve we were adjusting...the Fly app and how u adjust sensitivity is so much better in my opinion. Any thoughts?

[@lessen1985]

Great vid. Will try some of these at a wedding I'm attending tomorrow!

[@allenb473]

This was very helpful, thanks for making this vid 👍

[@niyimoses3061]

[@pernamore4224]

Very detailed explanation. New sub. Thank you for the tips! Love the intro as wel lol

[@BBoyDoma]

Best introduction EVER.

[@canderson1955]

Good clear explanation

[@pabloperlado]

Thanks so much for your videos...they're really essential and clear! It'd great if you could clarify a little bit the "GAIN" issues of MAVIC.

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Hey thanks for watching! Basically the more you add to the ISO, the more grain shows up in the image...it's best to not shoot with a high ISO. Increasing the ISO is basically enhancing the image brightness within the camera, so that's essentially considered "gain" on some other video cameras.

[@pabloperlado]

...so, how should we adjust the PITCH - ROLL - YAW - VERTICAL for the MAVIC GIMBALL? Thanks again from Madrid (Spain)

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Hey, did you watch the video? Did I explain it well enough or am I confusing you?

[@pabloperlado]

Sorry Ed... it was perfect... May be the only thing you didn't explain was the issues related with the "GAIN". Someone elese explained them in aonther vblog but not clear at all. Thanks again... and if you discover how GAIN works I'd appreciate if you can share with us your points of view. (It was hectic this week with my projects as an architect! and I couldn't take a look on your channel)

[@EdRickerVlogs]

From what I've read, Gain is the automatic aircraft operation, keeping the aircraft in control of itself. So with 100% across the board, you have a perfect hover (or automated flight path via Go App modes). Adding or taking away from the values in Gain will cause it to become unstable in flight, so they should only be adjusted if you already have instability. Sort of a manual way to calibrate the drone if you see it drifting/sinking/whatever without that corresponding human input.

[@kissimmeesux]

Hey Ed great videos just took my Mavic Pro out today for its first flight I say it takes some getting used to not watching the drone fly but looking thru the camera. Question for ya, If I set my TX up using my Iphone and change the expo, Gimble settings, ect and then later decide to use my Ipad to fly with, will I have to put the settings in my Ipad, or will they automatically be set? Thanks Alan

[@franciscorubio8290]

Hi I just got My first mavic pro drone, and I downloaded the app Dji 4 go and when It takes off it says Is gonna hover ay 5 feet but instead it does hover ay 25 feet and It just sits there,I have no control over it. I need help.

[@LEW-lx2fu]

Ed, since this video, DJI has added Cinematic Mode Gain and Yaw Sensitivity in Cinematic Mode options within Advanced Settings. What are these and what do you have them set to on your Mavic? Thanks for all your great vids. Your channel is an amazing resource.

[@samnella9]

Awesome setting tips!

[@eadjh98]

Nice video Ed, I'm shortly to get airborne with the Mavic and would like some info on settings for the total beginner! I don't want it to be too sensitive, please could you tell me from maybe 1 to 10 on setting up! In an idiots guide to flying the Mavic, I have flown years ago fixed wing model aircraft with a few accidents along the way, But I feel this would be easier than that but with a great deal more adjustments before first flight! Kind regards Dave in Suffolk, UK

[@joematerese93]

pls answer yesterday my settings were fine i dont mean settings i mean some days when I pan down the picture breaks apart some days it's nice and smooth is there something wrong with my device I don't think so

[@Chinesepoksu]

I got a 🙋‍♂️ Got a Mavic pro and starting to get into videography but for some reason I can’t shot nice quality videos it’s only shooting at 1080p 25pfs but it’s not clean.. Can you make a video on HOW TO VIDEO WITH THE RIGHT RESOLUTION pls!! Thank you

[@TopsMiah]

Brilliant, great start

[@Splendorjewel]

Hi Ed, Please help me. I set my drone moves up based on your video. Then I set gimball tilt speed and soft start-stop. Now it is soft, cinematic. But I don't like is the sudden start of turn, when I press the left stick to sides. Even I try to push the stick so firmly, the motion starts not softly. I would like to change the settings, not the flight modes, because this problem I met first in Curse Lock mode, when I wanted to start turning.

[@henvir26]
