The DJI Mini 4 Pro in Eagle Idaho on the Boise River

It was a beautiful day in Eagle, Idaho on the Boise River the day of this flight. I flew the DJI Mini 4 Pro low and slow over the river as well as gaining some altitude for a "big picture" look at the area. This flight took place in October of 2023 before winter settled in. I hope you enjoy it.

Great video! It’s nice to just watch people flying and enjoying their drones. 🙂

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you, Russ! Exploring with a drone is just so much fun. We're able to get perspectives that are otherwise impossible to see.

[@mast3rbug]

Wonderful fly, wonderful video. Thank U

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! It was fun!

Adorei ver o vídeo que tirou do drone. Gostei. Obrigado!

Lol we all got a little nervous there, great fun exploring :)

Thank you!

I have one more comment!! I broke my mini 2 about 2 weeks ago.i brought it back with no care refresh,they gave me a brand new one,not refurbished.the shipping was free both ways.i really love giving dji my business.😊

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I agree, DJI's customer service is the best!

[@mhzrango]

Same here they did me a solid Dji is the best. Man the camera on the 4 is awesome

[@rond3933]

Same happened with me, no care refresh. They replaced it at a very reasonable price, they are great.

[@samcourtrc6767]

Amazing views lovely flying video was just so relaxing to watch amazing ❤❤

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you very much!

[@johnolson4127]

Nice flight Marcus and I can tell how the drone reacts in a real world setting. If some one asked me about that drone I could say it functions well , even though I have never flown it,

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

As you know John, these DJI drones are tough to beat.

[@SleekHobbies88]

Super pumped getting mine Monday,love the hobby fun of it, great drone

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

You will absolutely love it!

[@MrNAMASTE1968]

Very therapeutic video and calming. Thank you.

[@henrytaaffe7058]

awsome footage Marcus.

Thank you very much Henry!

[@joeamericauavfordav1096]

Marcus, Fantastic flight. I do love your shots on the Boise River. I think you underbid on those homes. I found your location on Google Earth and then looked for listings in that area. About 2 blocks from where you were flying there is a small 2100 sqft home for $1.1Mil. From what I saw listed in that area I believe those large homes on the waters edge are in the $3Mil range. They are beautiful but I'm not sure they would be $3Mil beautiful. Not being nerdy, but your video peaked my interest. Thanks for sharing

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yeah, that's out of my price range Joe!!

Beautiful scenes and interesting narration, Marcus, on a nice October day. Now-spring is teasing us on this Easter Sunday. Cheers, buddy.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you George. I'll have some Florida videos coming soon.

[@gerardmcglinchey5779]

Hi Marcus it would have been nice to see you flying on that river with polarised filter

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

You're right, I should have used a polarizer. 👍

[@Piratepoilet]

I really love DJI drones too. I have never flown a drone, ever untill I got this mini 4 pro but this little drone is very capable, just so easy to fly. I would highly recommend it to anyone with at least 2 brain 🧠 cells to rub together.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, DJI makes them really easy to fly! Thank you!

[@rond3933]

Thank you Marcus, that was a pretty flight.

[@RonaldBrown59]

Great low flight over that lazy river, you did a nice job of piloting in that tight space. But I prefer to do these type of flights with the Avata, because the goggles put me in cockpit of the drone where I feel I can better see those ghost branches and thin wires. Nice location to fly, and thanks for sharing.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Ron! You make a great point!

[@jameshatchett8095]

I live in Eagle and sometimes fly my UAV along the river. Too many people on the river much of the time to fly safely.

[@waynegreene6405]

Another bloody beaut video Marcus, well done mate. I love flying up narrow rivers like that, just gotta watch also some wombat has not left a fishing line hanging from a branch mate, LOL. All the best from Sydney Australia Marcus.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Wayne! Yes, a fishing line would suck! 😄

[@nrnoble]

Yeah, during my drone's second flight it got too close to a tree and hit some branches. It was during the return to home. The drone got stuck in the branches. Thankfully it was only 7ft off the ground, thus easily retrieved. Imagine it getting caught much higher in the tree, and not able to retrieve it. I would have had to hire some tree professionals with the right equipment to get it down or wait days\weeks for the wind to shake it loose.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Oh wow, I'm glad you didn't lose it! 👍

[@usadroneflyer]

I was getting nervous at 7:52 whit the 7 ducks you did not see in the water. Glad they did not take off! Great flight, Like#148 Thanks for sharing!

[@FredHarvey-wp2qy]

Another lovely, relaxing video! One question popped to mind. How far up does the Mini 4 Pro's camera point? My Air 2S does +20/-90 degrees. The M4P seems to have a bigger range. Or is it just my imagination?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It goes up pretty high. I'd need to look up the spec. 👍

[@finnybflyin]

Hey Marcus! 👈🥸👉Glad you didn't have any trees do the AT&T to your Mini 4 Pro. I find that my Air 3 seems to have a better precision landing average than my Mini 4 Pro. Thank you for the tour! Cheers, Brendan

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Brendan! It was a really great day to be out flying!

[@mhzrango]

Marcus with. all that water how are mosquitoes around there. Place looks nice

I didn't see any that day. 👍

Nice video im loving my mini 4 pro.....QUESTION: can i use the integras with the mini 4....but not with the toggle i want to use my RC-2..??.. is there away?! Thanks and happy easter

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I wish there was a way to use the RC-2 with thr goggles, but there isn't. You must use the motion controller.

Nice video Marcus. I have a mini 2 se and I'm thinking to upgrade to a mini 3 pro or mini 4 pro . Any advice on which would be the best option.

[@user-gv9oo3sn8m]

your the first amerloc talking metric

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I wish we would convert to metric in the US.

[@Air_Devil_Leader_One]

Hya Marcus, You lunched drone, started talking about bringing drone in close, t this point you are screwed on lnding on return. I always tell you drone starts looking for landing spot at 19 meters, then you do up and away and never raise straight up, you are dead in the water then. Lanuch drone , goto 10 meters for a dew seconds, then do anything you want, it will pinpoint land then, Ray

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Ray. 👍
