You should start having giveaways

[@lakeliving2013]

As a instrument rated pilot and multiple drone flyer there are 3 things that are important to remember. 1) Always do a pre-flight checklist. Top off your batteries, prop check and viewing device optimized Etc... 2) Altitude is your friend. and finally...Trust Your Instruments.😊

[@Nine_883]

Ok Lindbergh. So you are using this guys platform to act like you are a somebody? How is your channel doing? Maybe you should keep your lectures on your own channel! ☝️

Hey Dustin, thank you so much for the video! I just got an Air 2s and it's my first DJI drone, trying to understand all of its capabilities is a bit overwhelming. This video was a HUGE help!!!

It is very good that you showed the gimbal movements during initialization when the drone is powered up. Not many youtubers are showing the gimbal camera movements. Thankyou.

[@namenotfound8172]

Nice review of the a2s! I did upgrade to that one, from the a2 that I'm using before, and I can just really feel the difference of both drones! It's also great that I can play with new drone tech and features on the a2s!

[@desertdronepilot]

At 11:50 the reason it was avoiding you so slow is that when you are in 4k60 and 5K it will not avoid, it will just stop. But in 30 FPS or lower It will avoid you, Great video as well! Thanks for covering all the details. Happy flying!

[@windlepoons7354]

Huzzah! There's my evenings viewing sorted when home from work! 🍻

[@daleadmire1451]

I've had my air2s now for several weeks and I really love it, been waiting for this test, yesterday I broke out my Bebop 2 and I'll tell you that thing really holds its own, it is very fast and responsive.

[@ninjageezer6802]

Hi dustin great video as always.i have the Air 2s and the RTH accuracy is awesome, always on the pad ,i do make sure i hover at 7 metres for a few seconds as well ,not sure why you was getting between 4 and 6 foot from the pad ,strange.the tracking so much better than my last air 2 its on another level tbh.looking forward to the range test ,im betting at full distance you will still have full signal ,the battery is the limiting factor as the o3 is awesome.

[@bobbrown8661]

I only bought the standalone drone this time around, using all the extras from the Air 2 FMC I purchased last year. Worked out well.

[@daryoushborja5115]

Thank you for this one.

[@fmasideviewbangla1247]

Very nice and learning video. Thanks

Thats it I have to buy one, just sold my Mavic pro and Im sure I will be delighted with this, I was going to get the Mini 2 but think I would be frustrated lol. I so enjoyed this review thanks from the UK

[@markcloudchaser874]

Absolutely awesome, Good Job to you both Dustin and kyan, you owe your son big time for all the running around lol, I would have been crawling on the floor with In seconds haha, I noticed the kid on the Motorbike liked to get himself In the camera shot, anyway Great Review. 🤘💯👊

[@tylerk444]

looking forward to the range test, will be epic with occusync 3!

[@ninjageezer6802]

Battery will let the side down ive tried mine full signal at nearly 7km and i had to get back fast only just made it lol...signal never lost a bar was unreal..... my air 2 was good also but this was better.

[@designer.346]

@@ninjageezer6802 The Air 2 is better if we're talking about distance (not signal) because it has a couple of minutes of flight time more than the Air 2S, I have flown up to 7.6km here in DR with mountains and the drone came back with 23% of battery, the signal wasn't good at 7km I even lost it but I would have reached 8km without any problem, Ocusync 2 is really strong too

[@ninjageezer6802]

@@designer.346 yes i agree on maybe 1.5 min of battery more in my testing,o3 is way stronger though it really makes a difference in any areas with interference...

[@ninjageezer6802]

@@muzikmon2267 believe me the signal on the air 2s is is soooo much better, I've had 2 Mavic air 2 drones and now have the air 2s ,I can fly where I was not able to before ...and as to distance no one in reality needs that kind of distance ,yes the battery is now the limiting factor but the o3 brings stronger signal in urban areas for sure ,I know I use it in this situation .

[@ninjageezer6802]

@@muzikmon2267 I don't wish to make a video or need to ,this is my experience and also most others ,maybe your Air2s is faulty ??? if i get time i will link you to some great tests carried out. Have you got the latest Air2s firmware ?

Cant wait for the range test

[@Twobarpsi]

[@DroneTechnology_]

Bro uploaded a 1 hour video in 4k, Respect!

[@droneSuriname]

It was long but I looked at all of it... Did learn a lot.. like the RTH under the tree

[@windlepoons7354]

Another great video Dustin! Thanks! Its interesting how often the DJI drones return to home always a few feet away. Practicing RTH with my Air 2S, took off using a tiny circle of grass surrounded by a gravel track...RTH brought it (nerve wrackingly) back to the grass, spot on, avoiding all the gravel! Phew...a pure fluke maybe!

[@theadventuresoflario]

Great review again, if you had the option, would you go for the Air or Air2? Is there that much of a difference to warrant the cost increase?

[@jareva10]

Waiting for the mini3 review!!!!!!!!!!

[@LeeH-Ranger83]

Dustin, AWESOME video - your son was a real champ for hanging around while Dad was doing the various tests. I can see where this would be a great drone option for a KZbinr or Photographer but, $1,200.00 seems a bit HIGH for a person like me who would have to come up with some reasons why to fly it. Thanks again for such an in depth discussion.

[@rpguy4]

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Appreciate you reviewing all of the features ! Question : Why do you take your phone case off ? I have no problem getting my Android phone (Samsung S9+ w/case) in the controller. Plenty of room. I have found that after doing a compass calibration on the Air 2S, you have to power off, and power on the drone in order for precision landing to hit the pad. Note also, according to the DJI Air 2S manual for Precision Landing you have to take off to a height of 7M.

[@Dupree403]

I love my mavic air 2 original but I wish it had the upward sensors like the S. Its precision landing is usually spot on. You're my go to drone guy like floss is for my phones and earbuds 💯

[@bertbeinaaf8314]

Next time your son flies and you do the running That will be interesting 😎

[@DustinDunnill]

Lol.. maybe 🤔😂🍻

Veľmi kvalitné video! Priučil som sa zatiaľ na tomto videu najviac! Mal by som ale jednú ešte takú otázočku! Nemáš náhodou nejaké video kde vyberieš bod na mape a pošleš drona na ten bod? Dá sa to? Ahoj Fero zo Slovenska!

[@kidslice2959]

The precision landing works great for me, within inches. I think that last one would have worked except it went to critical battery emergency landing before it had the chance.
