[@dab7963]

Absolutely great video. I love when you were talking about multi control and showed an example of flying it. Still laughing it was great

[@dab7963]

People need their faces to see and stuff. Hahahahah

[@JayDollarhide]

Proper job, mate...lol. I am from the US and have been following you for a while. Great video, love it, and can't wait to take the plunge and buy a drone. I am storing all this up for my retirement, all your information and tips. Thank you for all you do!

[@NowyKurs]

Thanks Francis. Keep posting good work, and have a good time with your travel guys.

[@mtoner1971]

Just bought a spark and watched a lot of you're videos you do some fantastic stuff. Hopefully see another spark vid soon.

[@bjhcvuaerpigfy]

the last one was the best (hadn't thought of that one)

[@tommieroux]

10 tips for cinematic video, but none of those tips included probably the most important factor : the frame rate to shutter speed ratio (180° rule, shutter speed 2x more than frame rate) and the use of ND Filters to achieve the right shutter speed in bright conditions.

[@loneultimate1328]

tommieroux could you elaborate on those rules ?

[@chrispalffy3511]

I recognise my country, thanks for sharing your tips Francis. Love the sideways shots. Very cool

[@adadsadventures9816]

As usual, great footage! I wish i had more time to fly so that can could practice with my Spark haha.

[@germanoberlo5335]

Great job Francis.

[@CezarsDroningTime]

Great tips and tricks my friend. I already started to use some of this in my videos and it really changes a lot. Now my footage is crisp and clear. Thank you for sharing with us. Cheers and have a perfect weekend.

[@slc6288]

You’re epic man! We just got our mavic air and all your tips were so needed !! Especially love the idea of holding it. Subscribed for more, thanks for sharing !!!!! 🌈✌🏼

[@hemsellrepatriationservice782]

Excellent tips , been following you for a while and the fresh ideas and the way you put it across makes it easier to get to grips with. Keep em coming.

[@sts123]

I actually liked tip #10. Never thought of it but its a great tip. Cant imagine how many great shots I can get using this as a handheld gimbal

[@rouxi691]

Bru your tips are tops, shooot for all the help.

[@symmetryofzero]

Thanks for this. I just upgraded from the Spark. So excited to get to work!

[@dennispearman5890]

Thanks for the reply , keep up the good work , I only been flying for two years, man you have so much land to pick from.

[@sharonannephotography-wedd1303]

Cool Francis, thanks so much for the tips. Fab film footage.

[@machbauer132]

Thank you for your tips! But I'm wondering why haven't mention the exp and sensitivity settings for better controls, or even ND Filters....

[@MacBaerFFM]

Thanks for this both enjoyable and valuable video, just the right time before I stumble into the common newbie errors. Going to lower the gimbal speed first and stop relying on auto. Will probably get me a set of filters, too. Greetings from a Mavic Air newbie.

[@nuestrapeli7174]

You are an artist!! Thanks a lot from Spain!NICE JOB!

[@FrancisDarracott]

Thank you so much

[@markbonsall3011]

Thanks good tips just got a Mavic Air your tips made me choose this drone

[@FrancisDarracott]

Ah awesome! I really hope you enjoy the mavic air

[@DutchNomadFamily]

Great great tips. The hand held drone tip is perfect and smart. And start using the ‘d-log’ color setting. Thanks! Subbed and follow you along.

[@hemo1985]

Liked so much your video. About slo-mo... So you think 1080 120 fps has a good quality in this Mavic Air? Even editing and playing the final video in 1080 differences in image quality with 4K or 2.8K are obvious... It seems to me 1080 120 is not a really FULL HD. I may be wrong. Thank you! Anyway, you just work in 4K and you change to 1080 just in case you are looking for slo-mo? Or you work always in 1080 120?

[@luiz.angelo.peixoto]

Great Tips man! You should do more videos like this with tips. And also some with tutorials on how to apply different settings 👌🏻

[@brianmac.theoldfartgamer.409]

Brilliant Francis. Mavic Air Arriving Monday.Can't wait to get started. Really appreciate your ideas. Cheers M8t :-)

[@SkyViewAerialProductions]

Hi Mr.Darracott, I love all of your videos! I am a proud owner of a Spark and a Phantom four. I use Final Cut Pro Ten to edit my videos. I am trying to grow my KZbin channel. How does your Spark footage look so crisp and sharp? I like how you are such a drone enthusiast like me!

[@LENSAAZMISHARIF]

[@CollosalTrollge]

Hey hi Francis, is the Mavic Air still worth the buy today or the next 2-3 months? I am looking around and wish to buy this in December-February.... I was going to go Pro1 or Pro2 but ...deciding Air

[@craighigbee3944]

Great video! Love your energy.

[@AtomThePugMEDIA]

dude your so nice thanks man this video helped alot

[@ZENxTENinc]

When your on the EXP screen actually move the joystick and you will see how making the changes impacts the joystick.. the dot will move and follow the line and you will see / feel how much movement you have to do in order for dot to start moving.. super handy to see it while you test the movements.. also helps you see which of the 3 is adjusting what for sure..

[@maoxi]

Tip no. 9 is great idea. :)

[@papuainsects8208]

Hi Francis, i'm from Bali. Next week i would like to buy between mavic pro/spark/mavic air, which one are better for cinematic footage? Also can you share your setting for your mavic air. Terima Kasih/Thanks.

[@HiHai]

Excellent video.

[@FrancisDarracott]

[@scox7748]

Great vid bro. Awesome NZ footage too

[@davidfournier3355]

Nice work Mate!

[@JDSLuis]

Thanks a lot man, great material!

[@FrancisDarracott]

Thank you :)

[@gabrielgross3393]

Thank you for the great tips

[@gcomfx]

Francis - I had a chance to practice more with the MavicAir over Easter weekend. I was watching my phone to close and came SUPER close to slamming into the water. 6" or less from splash down. I can't wait to show you the footage. lol

[@FrancisDarracott]

Ah wow! Can't wait to see it. Will you upload it to IG or YT?

[@gcomfx]

YT for sure... I've yet to try a video on IG. That might be a good tutorial idea for you down the road. lol I'm interested to see what you think of the footage. It's nice and clear in 4K haha... and after grabbing the audio from my phone... it seems the drone did NOT alert me to the water, but the sensors and alerts DID detect me... or the land I was standing on AFTER I altered the remote to full steam UP and saved it from splashing down. :/

[@gcomfx]

I'd still love it if you checked out my drone shots on my IG. You are the reason I bought the Spark... then we had the same idea and bought Mavic Air's at the same time. lol

[@gcomfx]

Here you go Francis! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2isg6uPe6lqqdE Let me know what you think might have gone wrong, other than the pilot error. Did my sensors actually fail over the water?

[@droneready8278]

Very nice tips bro

[@RGMGFitness]

Just checking in. All great tips...thanks Francis. That was one big bee! LOL

[@FrancisDarracott]

Thank you dude!

[@IR240474]

Just got one yesterday!! Thanks for this... BTW - How did you get the phone screen view on the pc?

[@liquidmind]

you ARE AWESOME DUDE!!!

[@joshnimetz8071]

Love the video! Do you have ND filters for your Air yet? If so what kind?

[@cassysamel3914]

Tip #10 was probably the best tip.

[@viclagstv]

love your video

[@NLV_Films]

Sick video ! thanks for the tips!

[@ChadCawleyYT]

Does your phone matter to get smooth footage or nah? Cause I use a 2015 phone with DJI mavic air lol

[@brianbracherphotography]

Love your videos, they have really helped me, so thank you 🙏🏻 I have a Question regarding video size on Mavic Air. At the moment I am still learning so have stuck to 1080 HD @30 FPS. I as about to start using 4K but you say you shoot 1080 HD @120 FPS. Is this your standard setting or do you vary? The quality of your videos always look so good 😊

[@Lordguerra89]

Nice vídeo bro you’re awesome 👏🏻

[@HippieP629]

Huge thanks from a noob. Just flew mine for the 1st time this wknd and after the initial nervousness, it went well. All of your tips are really appreciated and holding it while shooting is outside of the box. That alone just made me a fan of yours. Thanks so much for sharing FD.

[@jonwheels6917]

Tips number 5 🎥

[@verrettproductions3487]

I’ll be getting my first drone soon. (Mavic Air) I’ve watched a lot of KZbin doing my research and haven’t seen anyone mention if you need to do anything to your phone to stop phones text etc while you’re flying and how this would effect the drone if you did get a call?

[@Makermook]

They'll come through unless you're in airplane mode. Still, you can simply decline the call.

[@jervinquisada9774]

Nice clips man! Really like your videos, because I do same kind of stuff! ⚡️⚡️

[@nimbachannel99]

thank you for nice review... beatiful panoramic..

[@FrancisDarracott]

Cheers man

[@jcngv]

Great video!!

[@rogerdvorak3582]

Hi Francis, Is there any benefit of using a polarized filter all the time on an DJI Marvic Air... Thanks rog

[@corysturgill4488]

Proper Job

[@HashtagGamingVideos]

Hi Francis! You talk about manual mode and how you would have a bad shutter etc. when looking up from the ground to the sky, hence switching to manual mode to have better image quality. But what if you're point is to transition from ground to sky for a cinematic shot, won''t the fact that it doesn't adjust automatically, ruin your shot because your settings haven't adjusted automatically but instead you have to slowly fiddle with it yourself therefore making the shot impossible for one continues transition shot? Was wondering how you deal with that. Great video by the way!

[@buddyheph]

Dope ass vid man! Thanks for being so smooth and simple
