    Great video, thanks! Love the horse & cart & the landing at the end! Very cool! I'd love to see a video about the 'scary situations' as a new flyer. Such as weak signal messages (what to do?), flying when you can't see your drone (behind a hill, mountain), in wind, using RTH when you can't see your drone, does RTH work if your signal is weak .... Thanks!

  • @Shneepster
    @Shneepster 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great tutorial. Can you set the radius on the quickshots. And on POI, can I keep it at say 15 feet and 15 foot radius? Since obstacle avoidance doesn’t work when it is going sideways, where I am planning on shooting has a trees, so not a lot of room to work with. Need to keep it low and short radius?

      Actually, I wrote the previous comment 30s too soon. In the end you said that you have to send the drone back... if you spend this much time producing this much content for DJI you should get a ten pack of these drones for free. So, DJI, I know you're watching, you know what to do.

    • @carsonmtech

  • @Coryo61827
    @Coryo61827 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome video! Thanks! Are you by any chance able to use any of these track modes so that it follows you closer up and maintains a close distance? It seemed like anytime you started moving the drone will become a bit distant. Thanks!

  • @jesusmartinperegrina
    @jesusmartinperegrina 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    An important note about the Active Tracking mode while runnin in parallel, the drone has no sensors at sides, so if you flight it paralel to you (not as in the video where it is behind even when you have selected parallel) it can crash.

  • @ljonesto
    @ljonesto 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video Carson. I am using your videos to choose the right DJI Drone for myself. I really want course lock. I want to fly free and not worry about orientation. Does the Air 2 have this option. I can’t seem to find an answer to that.

    Love the youthful exuberance and also plenty of great information. Glad to see a helmet being worn during skateboard rides. I think it should be noted that when the drone kept up with him at a pretty high speed in the car, it was in Sport mode. Can't wait to get mine up in the air tomorrow morning.

    @RayHay1000 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Finally got my MA2 up in the air yesterday at a disused quarry. Old pit digs full of water and has been returned to nature....Frog heaven. Finding a site to practice flying has been a chore with all the council regulations. Being a newbie the learning curve is huge and have MA2 videos coming out my ears. Picked an open site ..set my landing pad....set my RTH elevation higher than the trees...did the vertical horizontal GPS thingo...pulled the sticks down and it burst into life ....left stick up and Im airborne.....OMG what now. Forward backward left right circles ...hey this is a walk in the park. Spent some time getting the muscle memory happening with the controls and tried the RTH function...did the gimbal down to view the pad and took over for a manual land. Did repeats on landing ...also did a few hand landings...pulling the stick down to kill the rotors. Epic....now Im a drone chronic lol Thx Carson nother gr88 vid.

    Mine arrives next Thursday! I am looking at all tutorials I can before it arrives and I have seen others say that for tracking it had to be in S mode not N mode. I am reading and watching as much as I can before I get my hands on it.

    Question? When you got the active track to work on the ground, was the drone propellers operating. I mean I guess, was it in take off status? Tried to get the active track to work on my mavic air 2 while on and sitting on the table, all I could get it to do was auto focus. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the vids! 👍

    I got this DJI Mavic Air 2 for my 30th birthday as a gift to myself two months ago but have only used it for 10 minutes once on a road trip. I really want to use it for running in the woods. Which mode would you recommend for following me in the woods running a 5k in 20 minutes? Would it be safe to have it follow me for 5 kilometers by itself while I run? I ask because of trees and what not. Thank you and great video

  • @brianho6625
    @brianho6625 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I watched few videos about the function of Qucikshot on Air 2 by other youtubers. Your video clearly explained the difference amongst "activite track mode", "spotlight mode" and "poi mode" with good demos. I am surprised the drone can able to trace vehicle upto 40mph in open area. Before watching your video, I still confused with those modes now I am well understood. Thank you for your hardwork.
    It would be great if you could discuss how to un-lock the height restriction limits in coming videos. It seems the market still without codes specific for "air 2" at present (2021 spring) yet!

  • @Vano287
    @Vano287 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    when you are showing the dji footage when you are riding the street (for example 15:23) you see a lot of pixelation on the street. Is that fixable or is it because of lighting?

  • @justinbraathen3077
    @justinbraathen3077 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great informative video, I love my DJI Magic Air 2 and with your videos I have even more reasons to love it! The Air 2 does a great job at tracking your movements, the Skydio 2 would have managed to find the power line and crash into them somehow, then the company would say there are power lines in your state, we can't warranty it. 🤣

  • @EastTactics
    @EastTactics 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bash high end RC, would the drone stay locked on my RC car? (its about the size of your average bed pillow, so pretty good size). could I pull up to a outdoor bmx jump course, and set the drone to follow my RC. Would it prove possible... or drive me nuts with constantly loosing track?

    @rickcloyd6390 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Really like your videos, keep up the good work. I am really conceding buying the Mavic Air 2. I have been watching numerous videos and reviews. My question is dose the obstacle avoidance just go up and over an object or will it go around like a pole or tall skinny object.

    • @carsonmtech
      @carsonmtech  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It will go around an object as well so long as there is enough space

    Thank you for this. I'm lucky enuf to have a pretty successful YT Vlog where I demo cosmetics & model clothing, shoes etc. Recently I was Verrry surprised when this drone co offered me this free drone to demo. I knew Absolutely Nothing about drones, but I wanted to learn to surprise my husband. "You" have been my teacher for a couple weeks & now I can fly it!! So Ty😘
