Come on! Ken is so entertaining that I forgot that I was watching to find out about some hidden feature. By the time he mentioned it, it just felt like a bonus... or a joke. My first Mavic Air crash was flying through a covered bridge. It narrowly missed a gap where it would have plunged into deep water below. My chest tightened as I scrambled to recover it. I would much rather crash my Mavic Mini... I just haven't yet!
@@pauluttermohlen318 Ken cracks me up. I would love to strap a couple of drones on to his back side and fly him around over those old smoke stacks to get a real up close and personal commentary.
Thanks for this oldie but goody, Ken. I bought one mini, crashed it into a stream being stupid. I felt horable, but then I remembered how cheap they are and bought two more and I am still got the other one replaced for 40 dollars... Life is good, thanks for the video. TTYL
Ken, I just found your channel as I’ve been watching videos on the Mavic mini. I’m saving to get my first drone and I’ve just turned 70 yrs old. I find your channel very informative plus the fact that you make your videos so darned funny. Keep up the good work and keep flying!!!
The Mini is a perfect starter.I'm a first time drone owner/pilot and look what I was able to do in barely my third flight using only the DJI Fly app. th-cam.com/video/djWSEJkw3ec/w-d-xo.html
I love the video the DJI Mavic Mini has. The video is so clear. Been watching lot of videos about it. I made my mind up on buying one. Are winning one what ever comes first. It's one great hobby I can have and enjoy because I am in a wheelchair from my job in 1993 lost both legs above the knees. Awesome Channel Ken !!
Do it!!! It will take you out of your wheelchair and you'll feel that you are the one flying. I'm a first time drone owner/pilot and look what I was able to do in barely my third flight using only the DJI Fly app. th-cam.com/video/djWSEJkw3ec/w-d-xo.html
I've been blown away, especially when I'm under the drone during landing, by how nice and capable this drone is. I'm very happy with my first DJI purchase.
I like Ken's coverage of the mavic mini. Others seem to be over posting but with Ken's videos you get way better substance. Cant wait to try to win one .
Thanks from Las Vegas. Entertaining, and informative. I’m looking forward to receiving my DJI Mini. 3 Pro in just three days. Thank you Ken for the many hours of entertainment you’ve provided me.
I’m new to your channel and I have to say that your videos are the best to watch. Dude, your humor is on always on key. Love it. Thanks for sharing these awesome videos. I’m a fan. 👍🏻
I went to order my fly more combo tonight and low an behold, they are sold out. I could buy the mini by itself, but I'd like to have the combo. I did find it at other outlets, but since I work at wally world, my purchase will include my 10% discount. I hope they get the fly more combo back in stock soon. I'm anxious to get started learning/flying.
I bought mine here. I have no affiliation with this company nor do I make anything from a sale. They were the only ones i could find that had them in stock ready to ship and they shipped fast. www.shopmoment.com/shop/mavic-mini/mavic-mini-combo
Update.....I went ahead and ordered the mini by itself last night (just couldn't wait) and then in preparation I went to the app store to download and install DJI FLy....guess what, it will not run on my LG X power. Sadly I cancelled my order for the mini. I'll have to wait and do more research. I suppose I could use a new phone, but this one is working fine. I just can't fly the mini with it at this time.
@@stevelaforce7806 Oh No!!! I'm so sorry to hear that. Yea the phones it is compatible with seems like a relatively small list. I use a Samsung Galaxy S8. I bought it new in the box on eBay for $160 but you can get used ones quite a bit cheaper. That's the phone I use and I have had no issues with it. My better half was given an iPhone 8 and we despise the Apple corporation. I am thinking about using it for a dedicated Mavic Mini phone though since DJI is initially designed for crapple. At least I wouldn't have to keep taking my S8 out of its Otterbox case.
I recently ordered my Skydio2 and won't get it probably around the 2ndQ of 2020...HOPEFULLY!!! My friend keeps talking about getting the Mini, but I said I didn't want anything that small. I am rethinking about getting the mini instead because of all these reviews I have seen. And you are right Ken..$1200 for the Skydio2 with the accessories and less then half the price for the mini. Still have lots of time to get my $100 deposit back for the Skydio2. All because of watching your videos. Thanks Ken
I bought both, and will still send less than a regular mavic 2 pro. The mini is great fun and fills a different role than the Skydio 2. I am still very much looking forward to 2Q 2020 when the Skydio comes.
@@mikekonopka1433 Right On!..They do serve 2 different roles. Although the Skydio2 is more geared towards action sports. I really won't be using the beacon all that much. Just the controller. Although probably also get the beacon. TY for your comment Michael . I have awhile to make a decision.
I just got a Mavic Mini and looking for videos and found yours. Glad I did, yours was the best one of many I watched!! You’re a natural fit into TH-cam video production. It was so fun and entertaining, not too long and gave me some good ideas on how and where to get great videos.

This little bird continues to amaze me. BTW, Ken...you bring a lot to the party with your Witt and wisdom. For you to be able to pull all of those maneuvers off in close proximity to all of that steel structure( the trusses) is incredible and truly makes my mouth water. As it stands right now I have three DJI s and I would lose two just to have one of these if it wasn’t about $$$ The fact that you can fly with much the same amount of software and adequate camera for roughly a thousand dollars less makes this a dream. Right now I figure the 1000 s differential in a crash is considerably cheaper than the divorce I would incurred if I brought in another bird. Enjoy young man and keep posting.
@@kenheron Thank you for the sage advice my friend. I would only add that you are doing the unmanned industry and all of us that follow it a great service. You teach volumes just by example and demonstration and you do it with humor. All Good, Young Man. Please keep it up!
The mini is the first DJI drone that is affordable for me and I absolutely love it. 400 euros well spent. I'm having way too much fun with my little mini :)
If the connection would be lost at 4:10 or any similar situation, it would fly up to the set RTH altitude, right? So it would just crash against the roof?
Hi Ken! I shared your very entertaining video with my twin daughters who both study medical to explain your joke in the beginning to me. They had a good giggle ..... but for the wrong reason! Because you got it wrong!! It should be "gluteus" (not "glutemous")! Hehehe! But good one anyway! Great video, as always!
Must admit I bought myself a Mini 2, and what a joy of a lil baby. However I learn and stay a lot of your knowledge here in namibia. I even took the girl to our Namib desert - the oldest in the world with some of the highest dunes , and she handled the wind from the Atlantic very well. Thanks and keep on , ill keep on following
Hi Ken. Flew my Mavic Mini today. The same vicinity where I've flown before. The thing is while Mini is in flight Compass Calibration Needed appears. The fact that I have already calibrated it before take off. What could be the issue here?
You are soooooo naughty-two shots of some historical iron gluteus maximise.😱🥴🤣.Some lovely old industrial shots and background information.Great video of the mini .Surprised how it coped with all that metal inside and out.Loved the shots with the evening sky reflecting on that glass fronted building and the lighting inside.Some more Ken puns ,fun and great editing.🥳
Haha I am so glad you like that little mini. Makes me happy. I will be getting one here soon. Still saving up. It's so smooth. I can't wait to get mine. Thanks Ken for the fun filled video!!!😁
Hey Ken, fellow Bhamian here. I just got my first "real drone" which is a Mavic Mini from ebay. I have a used Phantom 2 but I can't use the gimbal since no current phones will support the software. Thanks for the vid.
Boy, you were a skinny dude back in the day, huh Ken? Your shots w/the mini were captivating! I've gotten rather discouraged from droning, being chased off by "authorities" & other "do-gooders" w/o no valid reasons on various occasions, but you tempt me to "hang in there" for the type of unique photo opportunities you continue to create. I'm familiar w/JDI's 'Air', but am impressed w/the camera performance of your mini, particularly in low light (to say nothing of a few less bureaucratic restrictions than the mini's heavier cousins). Thx for sharing!
@@ALONE_IN_THE_DARKNESS1107 I bought a radio controlled helicopter about 20 years ago. I crashed it in the first 5 seconds. It never flew again. The mavic mini has gps stabilization. That combined with the downward facing cameras makes it extremely stable. It's like an rc car where if you let go of the controller, the drone stops where it is giving you a chance to figure out what to do next with the controls. Point is, ya it's easy to fly.
Me too. I'm having a blast. I'm a first time drone owner/pilot and look what I was able to do in barely my third flight using only the DJI Fly app. th-cam.com/video/djWSEJkw3ec/w-d-xo.html
been looking for weeks on getting into the drone market / talked myself out of DJI mainly because of the price. but now i think it's exactly where I am going. plus as a business owner i think i can write it off!
@@mitchellpayton9800 Well, in my view is a very good way to go but isn't the only way. You do can film in 24 fps, 30, 50 etc. I do recommend you to try a few diferents fps formats e watch the footage and see which one you prefer. 60 fps is good if you need a slow motion footage and a very realistic film like playstations games for example.
This video is big inspiration for as allways, thank You! And 60(or more in future) is way to go bacause 180° shuter speed rule is immposible for drones/actionspill cameras in practice But... 2.7k 60fps(1440p60 in YT)? With Mavic mini and Sony RX 100(4k settings)?
Hey, been watching your channel for awhile now, like the way you test different products, and your personality is great, haven't got the dji m2 yet, hopefully by x-mas maybe, seems to be a good drone with alot of features, alsome videos, thanks as usual for the content.
Your footage is really impressive, i just got a Mini and found your video when looking for info on the Mini, it's my first drone. I used to be a PI and can see a lot of possibilities with the Mini, it can take videos I wish I could've done back in those days, especially reconstructing accidents with aerial footage. I got chased away by the "heat" several times but with a drone it would not only be easier and faster, but a whole lot better. Could do the job and be gone before anyone knew I was there.
Hi Ken, these pictures are so impressing. I think, it needs plenty of hours of training to fly a drone to take pictures like these. I am at the beginning of flying a drone. My wife gave me a Mavic Mini 2. We do not have such interesting places here (where I am living) and our law does not allow to fly at the most places. Thank you for these awesome pictures, they animate me to learn flying a drone as good as you do :) I love your movies and I love your humor, too :.-)
I have been watching multiple videos on the web about the mini. I am seriously considering buying one. I currently fly a DJI Phantom 4 and would like to add to the fleet. I fly for fun, should i go for the mini or Mavic pro 2? Thanks to all who have a thought. You da man Ken
hi ken, reaching out to you because i just brought my first drone from best buy a week ago and although it has not shipped yet i am excited. i ordered the dji mavic air 2,, now there is talk about a patent dispute? what do you know and can you help?
Congratulations on the new drone! This won't affect your purchase. If anything becomes of it, it won't happen until late July, so you're good. Happy flying!
I just sub man your energy is awesome wish we had more of you I had my mini for about 2 weeks only flew it twice need to get out more with her. But it’s not my first drone. Keep it up 👍🏻
Great video! Hidden feature? I guess if you have that money to throw away, sure. On my budget, the mini is all i can afford. Not that i am complaining. I love mine! I just wish I could get that case you had on your show yesterday! 😁
@@kenheron Awesome, I'll stay tuned and watch for the contest. may the best person (ME) win! LOL Im a new subscriber btw, as of last week i think. Love your channel. You are a funny man with lots of good content
I grew up in Tuscaloosa and loved your guys show. TH-cam suggested this video after I seen the bardwell episode. So glad to subscribe and follow you and the videos are great!
Good job Ken! These are the kinds of video that made me subscribe. You should drive on down to Wedowee one weekend , and we'll go out droning in my "adventure mobile".
I took the drone plunge and bought a mavic mini for myself recently. Just took it out for its maiden voyage yesterday and had a blast. I am looking forward to the challenge of drone photography. I also enjoyed this video and your sense of humor it was quite entertaining!
Hello Kenny, do you only use LAANC when needed or do you always use. What was purpose of getting authorization for the statue if it wasn’t restricted air space?
Sweet video with your new Mavic Mini, Ken! Thanks for the trip to the ole plant, what a very cool place to fly and shoot. Your flights with the Mavic Mini were unbelievable; that little bird did great, and as you said, it was excellent in low light conditions. Thanks for sharing this fun trip, take care!
The mini is a sweet drone for sure. The hidden feature is spot on. Thanks for sharing.
What was the hidden feature?
JB The Price.
@@chrishope82666 thanks, I heard him say it after I posted. Hardly a hidden feature!
@@JB_inks they were talking about the circle feature . but if you move. the radius moves accordingly
New subscriber, enjoying the content thus far. I gotta get me a mini!!!
I watched 9 minutes of this to learn that its 'hidden feature' is that it's cheap?? Your vid is good, so please stop the click bate n switch.

I went from a pro 2 zoom to the mini 2 just for that hidden feature lol. And he's more likely to go on more advanced cuz he's more portable
Thanks fpr the heads up. I didnt come because i wanted a other drone. Bulls
The “hidden feature” starts at 8:44....
Thank you. This fucking video is a joke

Hey, been watching your channel for awhile now, like the way you test different products, and your personality is great, haven't got the dji m2 yet, hopefully by x-mas maybe, seems to be a good drone with alot of features, alsome videos, thanks as usual for the content.
Love the mini but a few problems I’ve ran into is even with the slightest of winds over gotten blown back over some water.
Great video again Ken. You make me happy.
Life is about happiness!
Yes indeed, and you know: what Ken Ken, Ken Ken alone! 😂
Watched to the end...Mavic Mini is for me...Nice video
I LOVE MINE ALSO. JUST GOT OFF THE GROUND TODAY FOR FIRST FLIGHT, SO EASY TO FLY
That's awesome. Happy flying!
Love your videos and helpful. I got my mini for Christmas and am learning all the features and trying to get comfortable with it . So far I am hooked!
So glad you're finding the videos helpful. Congratulations on your new Mini!
Your footage is really impressive, i just got a Mini and found your video when looking for info on the Mini, it's my first drone. I used to be a PI and can see a lot of possibilities with the Mini, it can take videos I wish I could've done back in those days, especially reconstructing accidents with aerial footage. I got chased away by the "heat" several times but with a drone it would not only be easier and faster, but a whole lot better. Could do the job and be gone before anyone knew I was there.
Thanks! 🤓
That little drone packs a whole heap of punch 👍😁
Indeed!🤓👍
Very nice video. Good to explore the history. Nice job
Lol , really enjoyed this and your sense of humour.
It is certainly a capable little drone, I enjoy flying mine! 👍😎
will an ipad mini fit in the RC ? How large of 18650 cells are in the battery pack?
Hi Ken, these pictures are so impressing. I think, it needs plenty of hours of training to fly a drone to take pictures like these. I am at the beginning of flying a drone. My wife gave me a Mavic Mini 2. We do not have such interesting places here (where I am living) and our law does not allow to fly at the most places. Thank you for these awesome pictures, they animate me to learn flying a drone as good as you do :) I love your movies and I love your humor, too :.-)
Great vid Ken. Maybe you could do a series. “Junkyards of America Seen by Birds Fleeing the Country.”
I have been watching multiple videos on the web about the mini. I am seriously considering buying one. I currently fly a DJI Phantom 4 and would like to add to the fleet. I fly for fun, should i go for the mini or Mavic pro 2? Thanks to all who have a thought. You da man Ken
If you already have a Phantom, adding a Mini to your fleet would be ideal. You won't regret it!
Ken Heron thank you!! If you ever make it out to Colorado “call me, I’ll be your wingman anytime! “
Great video, the mini looks like a really decent piece of kit. Location looks stunning!
Thank you Gary!
It really is a great little drone. 👍
Hi Ken - love your videos. Are the shots from the Mavic Mini all out of cam or is there some post production by you in terms of image quality?
Great video. Seems like a very smooth flyer interesting objects to film for sure
🤓👍
Gluteus to the maximus… Hilarious thanks buddy
😁👍
hi ken, reaching out to you because i just brought my first drone from best buy a week ago and although it has not shipped yet i am excited. i ordered the dji mavic air 2,, now there is talk about a patent dispute? what do you know and can you help?
Congratulations on the new drone! This won't affect your purchase. If anything becomes of it, it won't happen until late July, so you're good. Happy flying!
Absolutely great vid and very inspiring ideas to use the Mini for urbex etc
Thanks for sharing Awesome footage Subscribed
Nice job as always Ken
😁👍
I just sub man your energy is awesome wish we had more of you I had my mini for about 2 weeks only flew it twice need to get out more with her. But it’s not my first drone. Keep it up 👍🏻
Thanks for the sub, Crooked Man!
Great video! Hidden feature? I guess if you have that money to throw away, sure. On my budget, the mini is all i can afford. Not that i am complaining. I love mine! I just wish I could get that case you had on your show yesterday! 😁
I'll be giving away a GPC case very soon!
@@kenheron Awesome, I'll stay tuned and watch for the contest. may the best person (ME) win! LOL Im a new subscriber btw, as of last week i think. Love your channel. You are a funny man with lots of good content
Sick footage my man 😍
Hey great video when you land the mini in your hands do you auto land or just bring it down ???
Just hold down the left stick.
@@kenheron Do you still use the mini? i just got it for fathers day hoping I can take it out soon. Thank you
I grew up in Tuscaloosa and loved your guys show. TH-cam suggested this video after I seen the bardwell episode. So glad to subscribe and follow you and the videos are great!
Thanks Dave!🤓👍
Good job Ken! These are the kinds of video that made me subscribe. You should drive on down to Wedowee one weekend , and we'll go out droning in my "adventure mobile".
Thanks Wendell, that would be fun!
I took the drone plunge and bought a mavic mini for myself recently. Just took it out for its maiden voyage yesterday and had a blast. I am looking forward to the challenge of drone photography. I also enjoyed this video and your sense of humor it was quite entertaining!
Congrats man!
That was really cool Ken, you need the Skydio 2 to maneuver through there without the pucker scale being pegged....
Skydio will be sending me one to review hopefully soon!
Is the mavic mini worth buying in 2022 not the mini 2 mini 1 plssss reply
The more I watch how the mini performs the more I want one, great video, thanks Ken
Thanks Gary!
Yeah, the Mini has really impressed me.
Hello Kenny, do you only use LAANC when needed or do you always use. What was purpose of getting authorization for the statue if it wasn’t restricted air space?
I love your videos man they are the best! I can't wait to get my mini maybe we can fly together sometime
You bet!
Sweet video with your new Mavic Mini, Ken! Thanks for the trip to the ole plant, what a very cool place to fly and shoot. Your flights with the Mavic Mini were unbelievable; that little bird did great, and as you said, it was excellent in low light conditions. Thanks for sharing this fun trip, take care!
Much appreciated Steve!
That was such a fun day. 🤓
