[@vdmakwana1988]

This is what I call content. Straight on points. The best DJI Mini 3 tutorial video on KZbin.

[@Theratman62]

This is a video EVERY beginner should watch, not just for the technicalities for setting up and flying, but for the building of content. This is SUCH a worthwhile video - loads of information and straight to the point. Not a second wasted. Excellent and well recommened!

[@spilexee5254]

You couldnt have made a better begginers guide this is pitch perfect. Thank you very much sir

[@JevenDovey]

You're very welcome!

[@billelnyczky5439]

just watched your entire video. My drone was a bit of an impulse buy. After watching your video, it turned out to be an amazing impulse buy. I really appreciate you level of detail and information. Looking forward to watching more of your videos about taking video and photos, which was my main purpose for the purchase.

[@MrA1277]

Man, that's a lot of information to digest for a beginner. Straight to the point and very informative. Thank you very much for this tutorial!

[@collingallimore]

Thanks for going through every individual setting the drone has. This level of detail has really helped me get acquainted with what all is possible before flying

[@kylehislipstudio3280]

Thanks for being so generous with your creative ideas (the bonus tips are excellent) and your technical finesse. You're top notch my friend.

[@waddac2]

Now that is the best start to finish tutorial on drone flying that I have seen on KZbin. Very helpful and will refer back if I get stuck. BRILLIANT Video.... Thank You.

[@AnuragSingh-fp6ei]

Great video for beginners like me, just bought my first drone ever and wanted to take it for a spin. Couldn't get any easier without with this great tutorial from Jeven! Thanks Brother definitely will be checking out next videos now as recommended.

[@creature57]

Great video. I shared this with my drone class to show them how to use their drone. Very plain spoken and detailed in the right areas. Thanks so much!

I know this tutorial is a year old already but it is top notch! I just ordered a refurbished Mini 3 directly from DJI today and can hardly wait to get it up in the air. This information makes me feel more confident. Thank you!

[@itsmyguitar]

Probably one of the best tutorials I ever seen, in my life. Straight and to the point. Nice flow/speed and just what you need to know.

[@Wilma-u7i]

Great video telling you about the drone and how to work with it... Thanks heaps

[@tunneltu]

Good stuff for a newbie - I`m glad youre pointing out the importance of "the WHY" not just "the HOW" to use the drone:)

[@vuxphan]

I just got Mini 3 today. Thank you for the amazing guide, I've been able to get it flying and enjoy the ride. I really appreciate it

[@Sp-nd6uj]

After extensively researching what to buy as my first drone, I decided onthe DJI Mini 3. I read some articles on it and watched several videos. This video is hands down, the best. Very informative and well done. Thank you!!

[@Wheeler123]

I'm searching for my first drone for off-roading, All the previous tutorials I watched drove me nuts, apparently these people forgot what it was like to be an absolute new beginner. Thank you, I love your video, it told me everything I needed to know, in a way I could understand it, in a step by step process. Outstanding tutorial.

[@edbell2938]

Thank you sir! Your tutorial was excellent! I'm excited to receive my own and eager to test it out. Your video made me feel confident and at ease.

[@stnkfst8639]

So, this is by far THE BEST video on the use of the DJI MINI 3. Thank you very much!

[@Bob.Stoddard]

Thank you for the fine video, Jeven. Getting my mini 3 today. I will use this video to get me flying. You did a great job.

[@mischellestone5159]

You just saved me hours of reading. Every minute of this was informative and relevant. Such a great tutorial! DJI needs to hire you to make more. Can’t thank you enough.

[@fardicus0004]

Thank you for making this video! My Mini 3 arrives this week, and I'm feeling a lot more confident thanks to you!

[@MrJosephasmith]

Steller. THANK YOU so much for taking the time. You have helped me overcome some fears of flying. Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

[@VFRhondamike]

What a great guy you are ,very informative and precise instructions on setting up and what everything does so much more than the manual ty Jeven

[@nenaserafim1774]

Amazing video, this is 100 x more informative and easy to follow than the dji tutorials - they should just hire you to do them. Appreciate the time and effort it takes to make these guides, thank you!

[@TerryMcGearyScotland]

I totally agree with you! He goes a bit far for me so I slow the playback down to .75 which is perfect for me. DJI instruction videos are truly dire - unless you’re Japanese I guess.

[@johnvanwijk5601]

@@TerryMcGearyScotlandGreat tip for an non-english viewer!! 👌

[@dellashanker8395]

What a fantastic job you have done? You left no stone unturned Thank you so much from the UK

[@paul-57]

This has to be the best tutorial I have ever seen on KZbin, and I have seen a lot. I was going to get a cheaper drone but you have convinced me that this is the best for me, the Pro model though as I will fly it in the Australian bush a lot on our offroad trips and I want collision avoidance as I am not too confident in my flying skills.

[@richardburdon]

Very informative video for beginners. Just purchased a DJI Mini 3 Pro (my first drone) and watched this video immediately. It was a real eye opener as to what you can do with this piece of kit. Can’t wait now to get out and film some footage of Donegal, Ireland using the tips I learned from your video.

[@wolfganghokenmaier]

Beautifully done, comprehensive and to the point. Thank you!

[@newbiecam]

Wow! Excellent tutorial! I just purchased this drone, haven't received it as of yet but now i'll feel confident flying it after watching this video! Great job thank you Jevon!

[@chrisbrown811]

Excellent intro video - just received my Mini 3 Pro! Thanks!

[@SmallSailboatCruising]

Just getting started. I have been learning for about two weeks and I’m on my forth drone. The first one was a large cheap drone that a friend had bought, and he was having trouble flying it. I also had trouble flying it, but managed to work out the bags but by the time I crash tested it several times the camera had developed a headshake, not surprisingly, then I bought a very tiny very cheap drone. It took off in random directions and crashed into things so I boxed it back up and sent it back to The manufacturers for refund which they were more than happy to do considering it was a heap of crap, but you did allow me to learn a few things with a drone that didn’t have a GPS and didn’t matter too much if I destroyed it so drone number three was a cheap mini format drone. It was pretty good but lots of software backs where it’s main issues. I managed to do some pretty extensive learning on it in a big open place now having learned that it’s not a good idea to try to learn to fly one in your Lounge Room or remove the trees and it’s still pretty much in pristine condition. Two issues with that. When is the quality of the Photography despite being was pretty dismal. The second one is that it took forever to set up and configure for every flight which took a long time and by the time you got it going, thesun was going down was time to go home. so I’m onto drone number four. I feel confident enough to buy a reasonably good quality drone and so I lashed out spent twice as much as the cheap version which I’ll keep us a backup. It’s been a quick learning curve and I’m just doing my initial flights with the mini three and I have to say just as you’ve described in this review it is absolutely mindbogglingly awesome. Thanks for this video I found it tremendously useful and entertaining. I was spearing after some of the AI instructional videos in a kind of morphing of several languages, so subscribed to your channel and just wanted to. Thank you for helping along the journey so I can get back to my Sailing, which is my passion, and start producing some amazing content on my mini three
