Unlike most people teaching on KZbin, you get straight to the point. You are concise, succinct and never wordy. You give people who're trying to learn something, exactly what they need to know. Thanks for all your vids and all that you do.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Thanks, Jeremiah!

[@khaldounkaiss6215]

To ALL DJI customers: DO NOT buy the DJI SELECT , it does not cover any accessories for the Mavic 2 Pro or Zoom. This is a big scam from DJI I bought from DJI STORE a Mavic 2 hard case, but the 20% discount as a SELECT member was not applied, called customer service and they said these discounts are for everything else but not for the Mavic 2..... What a big scam this is,....

[@LarryMarshallPhotography]

As a relatively new drone flyer, I found this video the best I have ever seen. You obviously know what you are doing. I for one, want to thank you for your hard work for putting this together.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Larry Marshall you're welcome!

[@ericb9426]

This is absolutely THE BEST tutorial, not only on the subject, but on anything. Instead of the usual rambling, self-important, BS this guy presents the material in a good training sequence with enough detail to be useful to beginner and intermediate operator alike. I only wish there were more folks like him offering real expertise on their subject of interest.

[@GRockBlues]

Just received my Phantom 4 Pro this afternoon...I am so glad I found this video...What an awesome tutorial for us first time owner/flyers...Thanks beyond words!...stay awesome!

[@kennethhansen7841]

I just acquired a used phantom 4 and I read the owners manual which I downloaded. A lot of good information but I was looking for someone to pull all of that info together into a flowing cohesive approach to preparing, understanding, and presenting the basic information. You have done all of that and more. I so appreciate your honest attention to detail and appreciate all of the hard work behind the scenes to bring this video to us. Thank you very much!!

[@dj9ry]

One of, if not THE best "how to" I have seen! The presentation style (unlike most) has NO annoying qualities I can detect!!!!!!!!!! Thanks a lot for posting!!

[@Stephen4438990]

This video is very well made and extremely helpful. I ordered a refurbished Phantom 4 from the DJI store, and I've been impatiently waiting for it to arrive. I've been pouring over videos to research the machine in advance. When I got the drone today, I felt like I operated it as if I'd owned it for a long time, thanks in large part to your video. Thanks very much for making it.

[@billrundell2097]

I have just finished the first 40 minutes. I have searched dozens of you tubes and this is the best one I have found on P4.

[@songs481]

This is one of the best tutorials i have ever seen on any subject. Appropriately thorough. Wish more people were this good at teaching

[@constitutioncrusader9370]

I just bought a phantom 4 pro and I swear to God this video has helped me tremendously. Great job i've learned so much from this video. This is has given me way more confidence to fly my drone. And I'm really enjoying it. Thank you again

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Glad to help!

[@moekawach4682]

I'm about to buy my first drone and I'm debating between the dji phantom 4 pro or 4 pro plus. As someone who has a bit of experience now, what do you recommend?

[@khaldounkaiss6215]

[@Zener_Diode]

This is the video that should come in the box with every p4! Thanks for the class, I feel way more confident about my maiden flight.

[@Forgottenlane]

Nice work! I have been an instructor a few times in my past and I know how hard this can be and as a first time drone owner, this video was a huge help in navigating the tools in the P4P especially the camera function. Thanks

[@DanBayne]

Tony, because of this video, I pulled the trigger on getting a P4, and knew pretty much EVERYTHING I needed to set it up and get flying relatively quickly. Thanks for such a well thought out and conveyed overview. Best one I've seen on the P4's ever. I know this vid is old, but keep it up. I thoroughly enjoy, and learn from your drone vids...

[@kirbyjohnson3498]

Holy Smoke, this guy knows his stuff and he is extremely easy to follow / understand. I am by no means a Pro, but I know a fair amount about photography and was wanting some insight to the DJI phantom 4 pro and I am so glad I found this video. Great Job!!

[@betelgez314]

I bought a DJI Phantom 4 Pro V2 and this video helped me to learn everything about drone before the first flight. This guy is great. Greetings from Serbia

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Glad to help!

[@Seattle_Slew]

Long, but absolutely required viewing for familiarizing yourself with the use, capabilities and features of the DJI Phantom 4 model drones. Tony gives you detailed information and helps you to prevent making mistakes regarding things you may not have known. (Ex: The 4 Pro uses different filters than the 4). If you buy either product, when you open the box, you'll be miles ahead for having watched this video. Thanks Tony for a thorough and professional presentation! I'm subscribing!!

[@DuckMallard11]

I have always thought ISO was an acronym. When you said that in the video I paused it and did some research. After 35 years I stand corrected. Thanks for setting me straight on that. I plan to win some money with that little nugget of information.

[@fjdelahoz]

I just came accross your video. It is awesome. I wish DJI had as good a video as this one. Congratulations !!

[@1969Booner]

Excellent tutorial. I'm an advanced amateur photographer and fully appreciate the heavy emphasis on the photographic settings that Tony provides, in addition to the how to initialize and fly procedures.

[@davidevans6503]

Im proud to say I watched all the way to the very end. Very informative video! I just picked up a Phantom 4 pro for $700. Learned so much from your video. Thank you!

[@holdengreene9717]

DJI should pay you for how well you produced this video. I am so grateful.

[@darkblue9863]

What a fantastic instructional video. I'm a kinetic learner so along with watching this video several times i will also be working with the aircraft at the same time. You sir a credit to the profession and after spending over 2K on my first drone (with Accessories) i can assure you i will be thanking you more than once as i venture into this. if there is a charity that you like and contribute too, let me know and i will send something there way.

[@justinb2916]

This is probably the best produced and well thought out video for learning and using the p4p and p4a that I have seen......and second place isn't even close........Thanks for putting this together and excellent job.......I am now subscribed to your channel and will purchase accessories through your links.

[@brucelindsey5570]

Great job Tony! I have purchased your's and Chelsea's videos in the past and have found them always to be very thorough and professional. Kudos.....

[@johng539]

The way that u told this interview about this drone was just like if u invented the phantom 4. The way that u told the stores how it all works is just amazing that even the factory can't duplicate it...showing and also telling us all the details on your view and how is the best way to make it work like it should your also very honest is the key to this video, because of this I ordered the new phantom 4 pro plus bundle and also the osmo to, I am also ordering your book to. Just because your very details into my world and today's truth about how to make it all come together, again bravo and u should be paid in full for this insight on the truth about the real world use and also your real point of view.... again bravo and thank you for the real world use of this phantom 4. Pro and cons of this drone John Houston Tx

[@manchesterrealty]

Best phantom 4 pro instructional video available anywhere including DJI

[@Blahde]

Best and most comprehensive review (and Instructional video) on these drones I have seen. Thanks for taking the time!

[@patdempsey9337]

Best and most complete tutorial I've seen. Very nice job.

[@ahsansaghir1454]

You explain every thing so good a kid can understand,thank you very much I just bought p4p I am kind of learning process I watched many tutorials about p4p settings and all but really I like yours the best.

[@Nowaczyk308]

The best video instruction I have ever seen on You Tube! Great work

[@suldable]

I watched your video 3 times. Now i am like expert of this drone. Thank you so much

[@misaelintriago5434]

This video is perfectly accurate and right to the point. Awesome job Tony!

[@danwilcoxelectric]

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!! you have help me be a lot less afraid of flying.... i can now explore my drone with a much clearer understanding with confidence... I am going to look for more of your tutorials and hopefully I can find a sequel to this one which will help even more. I was considering selling my drone as I was very intimidated by all of the features and buttons not wanting to screw it or my pleasurable experience flying up... thank you once again....

[@nathanschwade5555]

This a fantastic video, as are your books. In this video at time 24:18 I believe you said you have a separate video on intelligent flight modes. Where is the link to that video? Many thanks.

[@brian_gonzalez]

My new favorite channel on KZbin- excellent job -- thanks!!!

[@Randor10]

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! You did something that most other instructional videos don’t: you explained everything in all the menus, right down to the last setting. That is really great because even though I may not use all the features, when I do need to shoot in an odd situation I’ll know whether the camera will actually perform the function or not. Then I’ll know whether to search for the setting or not. I hope that makes sense. Well done!

[@christopherthorkon3997]

Without you I do not know where I would be with this new machine. Thanks so much.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

You're welcome!

[@mrrrrr1rob590]

Part way through video and subscribed. Your thoroughness is commendable! Thank you.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Thanks!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Thanks!

[@hawaiirealmedia5610]

EXCELLENT (as usual.) Clear with just enough repetition to help remember stuff. Thanks for the great lesson!

[@BBBB-gk5bm]

Your explanation and attention to detail is fantastic! I have the Mavic Pro however the explanation of the software is 99% the same great job !

[@MichaelHurdleStudio]

As always, you just keep taking me to school. I learn something new everyday. Your channel is on fleek bro.

[@GeneAtTheLake]

There is a significant problem with AEB, in that the P4P currently writes the exact same exposure values to the Metadata, which makes processing difficult in HDR software. This is especially a problem with Photomatix batch processing.

[@spartanfoto]

Tony, I have just purchased a Phantom 4 Pro+ and have been using your video to teach myself. I followed your steps one by one and there seems to be no "Focus Peaking" (40:32 on the video) on the menu. I have also installed the latest firmware update. I understand it doesn't exist for the Android version.

[@toddcotton765]

Thank you sir. I upgraded from a Phantom 2+ to the Phantom 4 Pro. Wow I feel like a newbie, But thanks to your video's I am getting up to speed. Thanks for your awesome efforts.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

You're welcome! Glad to help!

[@unicorncookies6784]

great videos thanks!!! @32:23 & @56:54 the L series lens makes it's cameo in a drone review, why?? i.e. if your reviewing the 5d III pretty sure you won't have a P4P as a prop on the table next to the 5d..sorry I know it's nit picking..wait i watched again it the lens a coffee mug?

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Unicorn Cookies678 it's a mug. I drink tea during these because my throat gets sore from talking for so long.

[@ianfoster4164]

Thanks for an excellent video tutorial. I have upgraded from the P3A to the Mavic Pro Platinum and I find a lot of your knowledge is very helpful. Ian Foster.

[@jimservilla]

Wow what a great video, your a natural Tony. We're lucky to have people like you. Picked up your book since I'm a newbie to Drone and video. Look forward to more of the same.

[@joemarinophoto9998]

Great vid as usual Tony. I got the P4Pro and love it so far. Love your thoroughness. Thanks.

[@chefsathomewithmickiandjef3548]

Sir, what a great video. Watched it start to finish, and I'm going to be buying your book! Very much appreciated.

[@jonahfesman861]

Awesome, mine ships on Tuesday! Thanks for this!

[@GFields-DigitalPhotoCreations]

Update: Registration Number now must be posted outside and visible on the aircraft. Placing it in the battery compartment is no longer acceptable. I truly enjoy your videos :)

[@TechWiz1983]

Hey Tony, at 53:14 in your video you are able to change your settings under EXP profile to "gentle".. I only have "normal" as an option, "gentle" & "sport" are missing. I'm using the latest firmware & the latest app available on the 2nd gen 12.9" iPad Pro 2.. Those options are missing for my P4P. Any idea how to fix that?

[@Bansemer]

Fabulous video. So well presented with great info and excellent editing.

[@jameswillette204]

Thank you for explaining things so therally . You remind of mr rogers and thats a compliment.

[@kacywheatley2239]

One more question. This is a lot of information on the screen. Is this something that is dealt with prior to flight or something that is being adjusted during flight? If during flight, seems like you would never be able to have any type of sight on the drone with all of the adjustments having to be made. I want to be good, but this would all need to be memorized in order to do both at once..Thanks again!

[@dennishmiller]

Excellent video, especially for a first-time owner (P4P coming this week). Is there anywhere that all the settings are listed in a PDF perhaps? I'm trying to compile everything as I watch the video but a PDF especially for best camera settings would be a great help.

[@akorit]

"Sorry, came in a little hot there." Sooo informative, but so entertaining. Thanks!

[@callatianon]

Excellent tutorial! Thanks for your effort of making it and sharing with us! Because you mentioned the Mavic, I am looking to buy a Phantom 4 and I would like to be able to launch it and land it on a anchored 16ft fishing boat not on high winds. The P4 gives you the advantage of hand catching it. Can I do the same thing with a Mavic?

[@bond007mlt]

Really well explained, well done Tony. Keep you the good work you put in these videos!

[@XX76SCORPSXX]

Hey Tony, first off, amazing video! I love all you work and follow you regularly. However, Class D airspace is not common as is Class G airspace and requires authorization prior to flight or a waiver. Also, your registration number must be visible, putting it inside the battery compartments is not within compliance. Once again. great work!

[@rebelfrog3]

Wow, I was just given a Phantom 4 and was very intimidated by it. This helped answer a lot of questions, thanks!

[@indykurt]

My 1st flight was yesterday! 10 minutes in and I raised it to 30 feet and it just stopped flashing and running. The 30 ft drop to a sidewalk doesn't make a pretty sight and pieces scattering in all directions while the blades stay attached. The battery was still flashing. We will see what DJI does on Monday when they open.

[@JosephPaul4real]

I couldn't find the link to the template you mentioned. Can you share that link? Thank you for this fantastic video!

[@nimatonthebeat]

great video. Just one thing , you mentioned there's no difference in mp4 and mov and I'm a bit surprised because mp4 is compressed footage and usually mov is better quality. Have you tested between the two? Also can you link the videos where you explain the different tracking modes? Thanks

[@stephenpower1]

Great video, thank you. Got the P4 "Advanced" 2 days ago and didn't fly until I watched this all the way through. Can I just ask how you're getting the section heading on the screen behind you? It would be something I'd like to do for a talk I'm giving soon. Thanks.

[@rjnarvaez9435]

I like this guys he actually say everything slowly but not to slow and hes like i cant describe but i love this vid really really rrreeeeeaaaaalllllyyyy helpful thx and piece😎😎😎😁😁😁

[@helpaholic]

Yes ISO does change the amount of light but the lower setting for day shooting will bring in low or less noice or a dirty look higher setting is more noice.

[@ZokStar1]

Awesome tutorial mate. I just got a Phantom 4 pro+ a few days ago..... Just wanted to ask you a question. I flew my drone for the first time. (Only about 20 minutes) When I got home and watched the videos. I noticed 3 files.... I started recording once and stopped recording once the drone landed. Why were there three files on the sd card?

[@malektouqan]

Happy new year Tony and Chelsea First of all i want to thank you for all the videos you share its benn a great help for a beginner photographer like me There's one topic i wish if you can talk about which is fluorite and UD lens elements i keep seeing them in Lenses reviews but couldn't find a single video on youtube explaining what are they and are they important in the image quality and sharpness

[@anotherfrickinpw]

Awesome video and tons of great information. Have you found or sell a screen protector like gorilla glass that fits the screen?

[@afpitbull60]

Great video. Two questions: 1) What is your take on the RC with built-in display? Is it worth the extra $300? 2) What ND filter do you recommend? Thanks much!

[@2thelight]

Hello, like your honest videos, as a panoramic photographer I am looking for a hi res solid drone, with 4k, would the current version of the phantom be a good choice? I dont need a small travel drone, if I do I'll get another, but this seem like a solid choice?

[@blessedkingofficial2199]

my love for this lagend phantom 4 drone.... you are my best ever

[@777geeman]

im still using a p4pro plus after all this time. ive seen no reason to upgrade as yet. it just keeps on going. i found ur tutorial helpful if not straight forward. thanks for your time.

[@shang-hsienyang1284]

I almost freaked out when I hear the beeping. I thought someone is controlling my air conditioner and I am the only person in the room at 2 a.m. Nice video as always.

[@justtruth8310]

Nice stuff Tony. Q: I have the phantom 4 Pro and I do not have some of the settings you are showing in the video. For example I only show NORMAL when trying to adjust the sticks. No gentile or anything else. There are other settings I do not have either. Is this a firmware issue? Thanks

[@ronalvalerio1195]

Thank you Tony and Chelsea for the video very helpful. Question? What small table would suggest to use as the monitor screen? Android and apple?

[@PainkillR1965]

Tony you hardly speak about the 4. I dont have the pro so my screen isnt like yours. I havent gone through all the setting yet on my 4 but maybe a video on just the 4. The pro wasnt out when i bought my 4. Thanks. An 1:30 min and im confused.

[@andor8635]

You did a great video vary informative I just purchsed a Phantom 4 pro first drone. I was impressed with watching the you tube video's on it. I am a pilot so i have a background in the air. You did a great job of explaining about it. Thank you. I like to buy your book. I have a lot of learning on this. Thanks again for the great video.

[@biffbonker]

Tony, this is awesome. Can you please consider updating with the Pro+? Unfortunately there are a lot of differences. I would really appreciate. Thanks!

[@1MoreFish]

Hi Tony - By far one of the best Phantom 4 Pro reviews I have watched on KZbin (and I have watched many). I'm only 7 minutes into it. However I wished you had reviewed the Pro Plus so that you would go over the function of it.

[@chefsathomewithmickiandjef3548]

As I understand it, the P4P and the P4P Plus are exactly the same except for the integrated screen on the plus's remote.

[@penguinpringles]

May God bless you Tony. Keep on spreading the knowledge

[@JohnStephensJRSimages]

I received my Phantom 4 Pro and did some practice learning to fly according to your Fly Without Crashing video. Another great video, Tony. I'm having problems recording video and am hoping you can help me out. If I shoot at 60fps in either 4k of 1080 I get jerky, choppy playback just playng back raw mp4 on my windows media player. It looks as if the frames are jumping backward and forward, also. Shutter speed is set at 120. If I shoot at 30fps, the video playback is much better. Is this fixable in post processing? I haven't tried this yet. Huge learning curve! Any thoughts? I am using a Scandisk ultra 64gb xc1card. Thanks again for all your work!!

[@JosephPaul4real]

Can you please share the link to the template that you mentioned in the video? It's not in the description. Thank you.

[@claytoncreative]

Absolutely brilliant... thanks so much... just bookmark this video for reference and reminders!

[@trwilde]

At one point you demonstrate how a faster shutter speed yields a sharper video when the P4P is moving, but in your later ND filter segment you say something like "ND filters let me use the slower shutter speeds like 30fps, which I prefer." Please clarify. Also, do you cover prop shadows in any of your videos? 3D Solo users employ ND filters to lower the GoPro's shutter speed specifically to eliminate visible artifacts from the props. But it stands to reason that a lower shutter speed will introduce motion blur when doing camera moves. And thank you for a wonderful video. I agree with the many positive comments here!

[@javierperez2771]

Thanks for your videos I learned and continue learning, I feel more confident flying my drone.

[@mpcbeats]

Very great tutorial, I am a experienced photographer, however I'm still going to buy your book

[@cyberdudecyber]

Hey Tony. thanks for the great stuff! I wonder is there anything in your book that you haven't covered in your videos so far?! cause you have made videos on everything. Actually your channel is like an encyclopedia to me. :)

[@CDigata]

This is a top Guide I used to help a beginner.. Nice job Tony ;)

[@GRockBlues]

I hope ya get a billion views for this video...its worth it!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Me too, a billion views would be sweet.

[@BlackHawkVirtualMediaSparks]

Tony, I've watched the video three times and it's great! Thanks. Is there a video with the attached monitor that comes with the controller? I'm having issues connecting to the internet with my P4 pro controller. Any thoughts?

[@John-co6mo]

tony how do u fix compass error on p4 pro? maybe u can do video on calibrating imu & compass...this seems to be a very common issue for most users

[@rastakim16333]

thank you tony! i just got my phantom 4 pro and this tutorial helps a lot... coffee is on me!!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Thanks! Glad to help!

[@darkfiresl2]

Random question time Tony. What cardigan is that you're wearing?

[@paulcotterill7247]

Thanks Tony I picked up a couple of good hints I never knew about!

[@JohnStephensJRSimages]

Great video as always, Tony! My question is where is the best place to get training to get certified by the FAA to fly a drone commercially? You had mentioned in one of your recent videos about putting up a video about that. Thanks!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

We're going through that process now, and we'll probably take the test in the next two weeks. After that we'll produce a video and a study guide.

[@JohnStephensJRSimages]

Awesome, looking forward to it. Thanks again for all your great videos!

[@50man1]

Great video every Phantom 4 owner should watch. Thanks

[@jonchezzz]

Great video Tony I'm a rank beginner. AT 49 minutes into video, 3 ft to 1m, not 3m to 1ft . You have a great way of explaining things. thankyou.
