Your tutorials are always the best! Your’s was the first channel I watched when I learned how to operate my first drone, the DJI Mavic Pro Platinum. Since then I’ve gotten into flying drones for a living and now use the Phantom 4 Pro, Inspire 2, the FPV (strictly for fun of course) the Mini 2 and the Mavic 3. I like the Mavic 3 more than the Inspire 2. Definitely among DJI’s best so far!

[@trevor6483]

Thank you very much. I have watched a couple for mavic 3 tutorials and I personally found yours most helpful

[@prestonabshire9844]

Great tutorial Ed, I’m getting ready for my first flight and I’m way more confident after watching p1 and 2 of this, thanks for making it!

[@BelfastBuddhist]

Ed, you are a natural and a really excellent teacher, there's no filler in these video just superb guidance from beginning to end. Thank you very much for doing such a great job with them.

[@ronaldalsup9517]

Mavic 3 feels amazing to fly and camera quality is definitely premium!

[@canonshoooter]

Thanks for your detailed tutorial, so much I subscribed to your channel. I just purchased the Mavic 3 Classic. My previous drone was the original GoPro, huge upgrade.

[@EdwardSimms]

Thank you, excellent instructor.

[@mohsen.heidarkhani]

The best video that i saw about mavic 3👍

[@danieljeffries6430]

This Part 2 Video was Great 👍🏿 also As my Journey to drone education continues I’ll watch more videos that you Produce to Properly use and operate drones. Thanks 🙏

[@domaleons]

Very good and detailed tutorial! Thumbs up!

[@AndrewClarkePhotography]

Great video brother. I'm learning, you were too the point and informative. The different viewpoints were helpful throughout the tutorial. A heap of work, greatly appreciated.

[@mattblair4123]

Enjoyed this! Hoping to get the Mavic 3 soon

[@louiswells2332]

I am upgrading my Air 2 soon, this is awesome!

[@stanleytomasetti1074]

I ordered the filters with your link, thank you for all your work. I am learning so much from you

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@my360agent]

Nice video! This was a very understandable tutorial--can't wait to get mine!

[@canslono1084]

Thank you excellent video

[@VafaPhotography]

Where have you been past couple years? Glad to see you are back at it. Keep em coming you make great tutorials Ed

[@okwurionulucky9660]

Your tutorial is always the best. Easy to understand. Keep it up sir

[@user-ly4jz9bs6c]

Valueable tutorial !

[@perfectphotography8976]

Sir, Excellent tutorial. Thank you.

[@AddFilmmedia]

Outstanding pedagogy as usual! You are really taking your time to pick the right expression and features on the Mavic 3. To be honest, your video and the video by CaseyNeistat on the Mavic Pro Platinum made me buy that one in 2017. I purchased a Mavic 3 last week, and all though I pride myself by calling myself a professional drone pilot, I absolutely enjoy and learn from your videos. Great job!

[@tafazzolhossaintopu6731]

tnx for informative tutorial

[@Richard-C]

watching your videos relaxes me ,you are a great entertainer 👍👍👌

[@carolinaaerialvisuals]

Great video as always. Hoping I can justify buying a M3 eventually...and either you've been hitting the gym or i need that same lens you're using to make my arms look buff too. 💪.

[@dirkkruger8316]

Excellent!!!😁

[@dankurydotcom]

Hi Ed, you really do a great job. I just made my first flight with my Mavic 3 Classic yesterday, and even though I have had a Mini 3 Pro for four months, I am a newbie to drones and of course still learning, but I picked up some great things in this video that I just didn't know. I sure do appreciate your videos! You should turn on your "Super Thanks" on your videos here so people like me can send you a few bucks for helping me. Happy New Year too!

[@antoinernb9398]

Thank u

[@eder0009]

FreeWell got their money's worth if they gave you filters and you have them 26k views! Great videos, love the commentary!

[@RonnieThomasICE]

Thanks

[@NiCo-ri3dw]

Grear video!

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@touring4973]

Watching your tutorial made me pull the trigger to buy a drone!:) This one. lol:)😄

[@johnbroman7134]

Great video! Just wondering if it’s worth the upgrade from the Mavic two pro? I always look to you for setting up my new drones. Thanks so much

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Thanks John! I love the Mavic 3 for a lot of reasons, but I do think the Mavic 2 is slightly easier to control. It just flies a bit smoother in my opinion. But the Mavic 3 has new sensitivity settings to dial it in a bit. If you've taken care of your Mavic 2 and could sell it for a decent price, that would help pay for the Mavic 3.

[@anetelea777]

How do you set your polarizer? I have trouble seeing it and it’s too small to hold up to the eye. ??

[@astro.sergiu]

Wow, nice body building Ed, inspiring ☺️ Great video btw

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Haha thanks! I haven't entered a cutting phase yet, so a little thick around the mid section right now. Work in progress

[@astro.sergiu]

Same here. It's challenging but good fun, keep it up!

[@keithshuttler6259]

Love a drone but I be worried if I take it too far & can’t see it too bring it back too me How do ya know if your pointing the right way too return home

[@GarysOutdoors]

Great video! Always liked you presentation style. Do you know if a tablet can be used on the one that comes with the screen so I can get a larger screen? Did that with my Mavic Air, but that one didn't have a screen in the remote. Thanks!

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Hard to say. If you're using the DJI RC Pro, you might be able to HDMI or USB out to a tablet, but I've never tried. You can definitely use the mini HDMI out to display it on an external monitor but that's a bit more bulky and different than just a tablet.

[@GarysOutdoors]

​ @Ed Ricker Hi Ed. Thanks for your re[;y. I will explore those options. 👍

[@karenmickel6205]

Is there a zoom setting short cut using rc pro

[@GreyEagle3]

good video thanks ...just broke the bank and brought mine

[@Kikibear]

If I had this drone I would use the active track to make it look like I have a pet drone while I go for a walk! 😂

[@svfdfireman155]

Ed you need to VLOG more.... I hope your doing well... I enjoy your tutorials. I just haven't gotten the nerve to try FPV yet.

[@ndubuisionwubalili6021]

Hi Ed, nice job, can this mavic 3 fly under rain conditions? Thanks.

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Hi, the drone may fly ok in very light rain, but anything more than that should not be attempted. At that point, the camera will become wet and the image it captures will not look good, so rain probably isn't a good thing all around for the drone.

[@juani1065]

Great stuff Ed. For the active track, do you need to change the settings for the gimbal (under control)? Would it follow a person on a windsurf? If so how is the altitude controlled? Thank you

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Both the drone and the gimbal will work together to keep the subject in frame during follow. It will follow almost anything, and a mixture of barometer and GPS will help keep the altitude. But sometimes the drone acts odd over water since it uses downward positioning sensors which may be confused by water. A big thing to consider is that the drone will follow something, but it will not move out of the way of something else moving toward it. So if you're out there making it chase a windsurfer, another boat or windsurfer could possibly collide with the drone. Obstacle avoidance really only works on static objects.

[@juani1065]

@@EdRickerVlogs Thank you. So much to learn!

[@juani1065]

@@EdRickerVlogs so safer to follow wind or kite surfers manually!

[@the4hunters]

What happened to all the intelligence flight features

[@lordmater]

Does anyone know how to tell what orientation the drone is in compared tot he pilot? On the Mavic Air 2S there was an icon on the screen that showed what direction you were flying in relation to the pilot. I cannot find that with the Mavic 3 Classic (remote with built in screen). Thanks for any help. :)

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Check out 10:40 in the video. It's not as easy as it used to be, but you can still find what you're looking for.

[@lordmater]

@@EdRickerVlogs thank you so much!

[@canonshoooter]

Confused. At video timer 13:35. Green battery indicator says "53" power remaining & just to right says 21'24". The pop-up says 21'24" Until battery depleted. Which should I follow?

[@canonshoooter]

I get it. Green indicator is battery power & the indicator to the right is measure of time remaining in min/secs.

[@davidguillory4311]

Now I'm watching part two. It would be nice if the drone company would make them battery last a lot longer.

[@NeoFrontierTechnologies]

Can this drone complete a waypoint mission if it goes out of controller range ? Because that would be handy if you want to film something out of controller range...

[@EdRickerVlogs]

No, it has to have connection to your controller.

[@NeoFrontierTechnologies]

@@EdRickerVlogs Is it possible to change the return to home location while the drone is in flight ? The idea is to get the drone to land closer to you if you moved far away from the take off position ( in case of low batt or emergency). I saw a video where a dji got swept away by the wind and eventually returned to home. But the home positiion was far away from where the pilot moved to. She had to go far back to fetch the drone...

[@VinayKumar-dx8rj]

Which sd card you are using? With brand, model and capacity?

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Samsung EVO 256gb MicroSd

[@thefighter7108]

Just watch your video from 2017,

[@azwb]

Great job. I didn't need a review and in boxing. I needed a fly tutorial. Thank you. Great video.

[@EdRickerVlogs]

Glad you liked it!

[@Stefan_Boerjesson]

Time 06:43, panik. Just leave the controls...... The wind carries the drone away.... Ended up ditching a 50$ drone yesterday..... Landing is also effected by the wind. If not steering against the wind the drone often topples over and stop up side down.

[@EdRickerVlogs]

You're obviously not flying on Mavic 3.

[@Stefan_Boerjesson]

@@EdRickerVlogs No. It was a knock off Eachine58. Mavic3 is the dream.....
