As a new operator I'm really grateful for the time and effort you've put into this work....I hope you enjoyed your time in Vancouver!

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you Alan! I’m happy you found your way here! I had an amazing time in Vancouver. Will be back next year 😍

[@bobmcleod8789]

This is one of the best videos I have seen throughout my journey into the world of DJI drones. The location and scenery "Just beautiful"

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you so much for taking you your time to actually share that! That means so much 😃👍 I hope you will find many more videos here that you’ll like!

[@drew31186]

First off, looks like you are living your best life...I'm a little envious 😂 Thank you for the video. I enjoyed how you covered various views (drone view, RCpro view and 3rd person), demonstrated seemingly all the tracking options and managed to hold my attention throughout the video. Also thanks for not going overboard with too much music and sharing your genuine experience of excitement with all the "cools" in the video 🙂

Hi Mats, I’ve only just come across your channel and so far have watched you 3 make it on to the pontoon safely without crashing or falling in 😅😂 I have instantly hit like and subscribed as you seem like a really nice and interesting guy!! I’m sure I’ll enjoy the rest. I’m 8:30 into the video 👍🏼 hello from 🇬🇧

You always seem surprised that APAS actually avoids obstacles. I enjoyed your simple happiness that it worked as designed! You will learn to trust the drone after many flights.

I just picked this up yesterday and Im super impressed. Was wondering about these abilities and you answered every question! Only bummer is no Audio Recording but video quality is 😬

you can plug in a USB mic in to the data port and it should record in screen capture mode

Thanks Henry! So happy you found your way to this video! I hope you will stay for a long time. And welcome come back whenever you feel like it!

[@mjwoner]

I like your detailed videos. Instead of going through all the features in one swoop, you instead focus on one or two things making it easier for the information to stick. Very pedagogical! About the active track, loosing you. I was using it with a motorcycle just yesterday and it was loosing me too. I did notice one thing, it was way easier for the drone to lose me when the sun was against the drone. The glare might be affecting active track.

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you so much!!! 😃👍 Yes I have noticed the same thing. Works better with tail sun light :)

[@v-gc7257]

@@MK-Creator The whole time I was watching this I thought, "man, this looks a lot like northwest Montana".

[@CARLBism]

Hi there , fantastic video and very informative, I too wondered if it would track at a higher speed and then you tried it 👍,suppose the only way to take advantage of S mode is if you took control yourself and then it could fly faster 🙂

[@MK-Creator]

Hi 👋 Om happy that I managed to answer some of your questions about the Auto Track feature of the DJI Mini 3 Pro 😃👍 Yes, to take advance of the higher speed in sport you need to disengage the auto track feature 🙂 Thanks for watching!

[@Jeffdlofgren]

Great video from a newbie Mini3Pro drone owner! Really enjoyed your video and explaining each mode. I recently tested mine on a mountain bike in my neighborhood and it worked flawlessly! I did outride it a couple times going downhill though. Another factor that affected its ability to keep up is the wind direction. It will lose speed fighting headwinds and it can make up more speed in a tailwind. You nave a new subscriber in me! Now I will check out your other M3P videos! 👍

[@killgates9890]

Wonder buying it to mtb mostly but now i seen vids where it was problem following, now i dont no what to do....

[@SPS_survivor]

Just watched the complete video and will be following you for sure. You’re a friendly, happy and interesting to watch. Hello to you and your family. What a beautiful location for testing it all out. Was the boat going as fast as it could? As the top speed in “s” is way more than 36km 🤔 I also thought that the sensors stopped working when in “s” mode but it tracked you up the path easily. Definitely my next drone! Anyway, great video man. Catch ya soon!

[@MK-Creator]

Hi Martin! Your tracking speed did not change when I changed between cinematic normal and sport mode. 👍😃

[@D3RPZILLA]

Great video, thank you :) I need to test out and use the active track some more with my Mini 3 Pro :D Does the Minie 3 Pro have the other quick shot stuff like boomerang, rock ship, etc? I thought I saw something about those features but maybe for a different drone, lol.

[@MK-Creator]

Hi 😎 and thank you! Yes the DJI mini 3 Pro has a different kind of quick shots also. I’ll covered them in my Beginners Guide kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmi4np-XbdeabNU

[@TheAlpacar]

nice video, congratulations.

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you so much

[@AussieAdventurer]

Another great and helpful tutorial Shaun, thanks. Now I did get a bit confused when you where in the tracking mode ..you switched from tracking to parallel…and later from cine mode to Normal and sports mode… Did you have to stop the tracking before switching or did you just do the switch on the fly ( pardon the pun 😉) And secondly in Sports mode the obstacle avoidance is automatically disabled right….but it still seem to avoid the trees and whatever….HOW ? It stands to reason while in active track the obstacle avoidastill seems to work 🥴🤷‍♂️ Would you mind clarifying those to things for me please. So much to learn…🤷‍♂️
