Excellent idea to turn off return to home when indoors! Didn't think of that. What kind of damage would this thing do if you hit the blades with your hands?
Very helpful video, not everyone knows this info. The simplest things are often pverlooked. Also, Autofocus is enabled now, but its still good to keep an eye on WHERE it focuses.
I just got mine a couple days ago. I was nervous flying it after all the issues I've seen on youtube but after watching alot are user error. Like always good video! Thanks
I just got my Mavic Pro about 4 days ago and I was just flying around in my backyard trying to get a feel for it before taking it out in the world when the app crashed and it immediately initiated the RTH sending it straight up into a tree. Pulling down on the stick did nothing and it just started to destroy the tree and eventually went like a missile into the ground. My heart stopped and I stood there looking at what I thought was the quickest $1,000 I have ever lost. Amazingly the Mavic is built very well and other than 2 of my props exploding and some dirt that needed to be cleaned off there wasn't a scratch on it. I spent the next 5 min. going through the menu and looking for that feature to be turned off so that wouldn't happen again. I have since found myself creating a small pre-flight checklist to have with the drone before I set off so I remember to change the settings depending on my location and surroundings. I also suggest that everyone pay the extra $100 for the DJI Care Refresh as that will certainly give you a greater peace of mind when flying.
Cameron, good idea about the check list. You need to always remember to adjust your return to home altitude before each flight for the surroundings you will be in. You can stop the return to home on the controller even if the app crashes. There is a stop button on the controller that will make the Mavic hover in place at anytime.
Hey thanks for the tips...I justtttt got my mavic pro and veryyyy happy.. I'm kinda scared to start up up for the first time. I'm wondering about a fee things before I start up first time. First .. should i use remote only first and then once getbthe hang ..then connect tablet for video and all the fancy stuff....second .I'm wondering about the switch in the side by the sd card. It says wifi/Rc. Wondering what thats for..and when do I mess wirh it. And where does it need to be for startup. And lastly. Is there a video that walks a person like me thru turn on all the way thru to take off and flying.....im.sure I can figure it out but I finally got a mavic and I'll be dammed if I crash it right after I getbit in the air cuz I'm not sure what's going on. Haha. ..so anymore help other than what I've seen from u would be soooooo appreciated...Chris Patterson. Disabled/retired ..p.s...mainly i want to be able to take off and fly and impress my kid ..not crash and get laughed at. Not to mention the money and time it costed me. I'll never get another chance to own one. So I got to be sure and careful!:):) Thanks again
Thanks again for the videos. Just got my mavic pro today. Should I use DJI Go or DJI Go 4 ? I think I have to do a firmware update also because it’s not syncing
I had an indoor Tripod Mode crash that I mentioned on an early video. Update! They are covering it under warranty and stated, "Warranty per flight data analysis." I really think there could be in issue with the sensors and glass - but thankful of the great support from DJI.
Ready Set Drone thank you man , new to this aspect of the hobby , been flying toy grade only lol aside from a Hubsan 501 , so all this stuff about apps etc is very daunting
very helpful and informative Video! another small Thing that i didn't know and was very thankful to learn about: for smoother camera movements, you can adjust the gimbal Speed and (especially) the pitch buffer. Looks a lot better in my opinion.
Thank you very much for this video. I am a new Drone Pilot and I purchased the Mavic Pro. I am looking to learn all that I can. Thanks for all your work!
Great tips, as a new user, had my Mavic a week now, and not even taken to the air yet!!! One question, I am coming to US in October (from UK) and want to bring my Mavic (as you have way better beaches, bluer sea's and palm trees), do I need to register with FAA ahead if visiting? Also anyone know if I need to get permission from US customs, etc.
I took the inner molded pieces from the packing the Mavic came in and mounted it in a small hard shell case that has foam rubber in it. There was also extra space for other items such as spare battery, filters and spare blades.
great video. I do have a question that I can not seem to find. I was going to get a iPod touch 6th gen for the controller so i do not have to take my phone in and out of the controller. I learned that the map option wont work since no GPS. So i was wondering if a old iPhone that has no active service from a cell provider would work to avoid this?
Great tips!! I have the same case as yours almost identical in every way except it could hold one more battery but I love the backpack style much better than the suitcase Style.. The only problem I have with my landing gear which I haven't used yet is I'm curious if it causes the wind to take it more and decreased battery life? What are your experiences with the landing gear in that regard..
Yes - that was shot early in my Mavic flying days. I have become much better at the DJI Go app since then, but the Mavic still sometimes has soft focus in areas on the screen.
Do yourself a favor - get a Syma X5C first, get used to flying it, then get a Mavic Pro. The Mavic Pro is easier to fly, but Syma X5C will make you a more confident, better pilot. Thanks for watching!
Did you use a plain printed label for your FAA number or something permanent? I'm getting mine soon, and saw where they want you to permanently affix it to the drone, either with a permanent label or engraved and im not too keen on doing that since I might sell it in the future if I upgrade to a better one.
formatting the SD card doesn't need to be done every time you erase footage. It is a good practice and it only takes couple minutes to do but it's perfectly fine doing this once a month or so. It'll also prolong the life of your SD card.
I have a doubt before buying it: the mavic pro was launched in 2016, but i'm thinking about buying this drone in 2018. The doubt if: Will i still have support and will it still be working as it should be in 2020, for example? will i still have the same functionality in the DJI APP, or old drones stop working? Please someone help me.
The way you had your landing pad stakes they stick up quite a ways, high enough the rear props will hit them. If you put the stakes in the ground at an angle they won't stick up so high, and is usually easier to push in the ground. I always Move files off my SD card to the computer rather than Copy them, then I never have to worry about "did I copy them or not?" (on PC drag, press Shift, then drop.)
I sure am glad you do these videos because I'm one of your followers and a subscriber I just got my Mavic today so I'm turning into what you have to say that'll benefit me so thanks for all the work that you do I really appreciate you
Is this a great drone to start out with? It might be on the expensive side, but would you say someone who don't have a drone and know how to fly this should get it as their first? I'm not quite sure.
Just my thoughts, this camera does have AFC it’s it automatic, I’m a photographer and many cameras video have auto focus, now if they do it well is in question. I’ll start hitting more often because I’m not really happy with the sharpness of 4K video, even on my DJI Action 2 camera. Too bad DJI most likely won’t update the software anymore for the Mavic Pro, my brother gifted his older drone to me I’m just starting to get into it. Enjoying it a lot.
How long will you be in the US? I'd say if you are here for more than 2 weeks or so, you should register and get a number. It's pretty easy and only costs $5 USD. www.faa.gov for more info.
Yep already have registered it on FAA web site. :) is there anything else I should be doing when travelling and taking the drone domestic flights in US? I am already taking the batteries with my hand luggage and planning taking the drone in hand luggage as well. Well that attract any attention? I'm there just over 2 weeks before heading to Canada via British Columbia. Thanks again for you help.
Not sure if someone has already said this, but you can leave the camera dome on during flight. DJI even recommends leaving it on, there is very very little chance of overheating. Of course you may want to take it off to prevent lense flare.
You say take the gimble cover before flying makes senes , but DJI shows their videos with them flying with gimble cover on ? just wondering why would they do that if it's meant to come off?
the gimbal cover has a slit on the side to draw air into the quad. I recommend drilling holes into the bottom of the cover or a single big hole to enhance ventilation. tip: start with a small bit and tape the area to prevent cracking the plastic. I think registration has been waved for hobbiest as of now... this is ONLY what I HEARD I have not researched it yet.
I would really like to keep at least one of my batteries charged at all times. However it is not good for the longevity of a lipo to be fully charged for long periods of time. Even with the auto discharge feature, I'm still not sure how I feel about it. Thoughts?
So DJI batteries are "intelligent" which means that they do automatically discharge over time to preserve their lifespan. I have had some P4 batteries for a year now and I usually recharge after a flight then leave them. If they sit for a month or so, they automatically discharge to a safe level.
Kelly Shores thanks Kelly, appreciate an answer from someone who has experience in doing exactly what I'd like to do! I think I'll go charge my batteries! Maybe only the Mavic batteries though as the Inspire's are still $160 a batt!
Ready set Drone. QUESTION?? . I am planning to buy a MAVIC. I have ready many YOU TUBES about the I-pad or cell phone connection being intermittent. Yet the controller is still functional. . I found many suggestion and one that is possible with the connection, between I-phone and controller being the DEFAULT SETTING. . Did you encounter this DEFAULT SETTING PROBLEM??? . HAS IT BEEN FIXED BY THE COMPANY. . HAS A POSITIVE SOLUTION BEEN GIVEN. Please advise.
I have not had any problems with my iPhone connecting to my Mavic. It is solid. The one issue is the way the cable connects, so sometimes, people may not have the cable plugged all the way into their phone or tablet because if where it is. If you have it plugged in all the way, it works great in my experience. I'm confident that you won't regret buying a Mavic. I've had mine since last fall and it is AMAZING and I've had very few issues with it. Thanks for watching.
Ready set drone. Do you think the mavic pro is still worth it in 2019?. Because i'm still saving money for it. Do you think the mavic pro is still worth it?. (Mavic 2. too expensive for me)
Dude - where are you. Looks like Central Texas. Thanks for the tips - good stuff. Just got mine and finding a lot of great info on you tube. Like yours. Appreciate it.
Cool. Me too. Don't know if there is a support group for drone-aholics or something around in the area where people gather to get ideas about other crap they need to buy, but if so let me know. I'd like to join you guys! Take care!
Yes, be careful hand catching. BTW, when catching the P4 you can be safer than you demonstrated. 1. Never grab the P4 with your fingers on the stick. The craft should not be moving when you grab it. 2. Hover the craft 1' above your head, about 5' away. 3. After the hover proves stable, with your hand OFF THE STICKS, slowly walk to the drone and grab a leg. 4. With a firm grip on a leg, hold it above your head in place and THEN touch the left stick, full down to turn off. 5. AFTER motors turn off above your head, then lower the drone down to turn off the battery.
Gerd Staudenmaier That hole will help slow down the overheating process. If the vents are not wide open, they are restricted. This may not hurt the machine for certain, but it may.
Nice tips but just don't fly indoors. My new Mavic came crashing down within one or two second it took off. I tried to save it by catching it, but was rather too late and one of the propellers took a good chip of my fingernail. I am not sure why it drifted, probably the ambient light is too low for the sensors.
Hi thank you four your video I'm lucking on internet to by a camera mudelo is very difficult to find in uk I'm in Jersey uk can you please help me if you can if you now where I can by a new lens ( Mudelo ) many thks Regards
Excellent idea to turn off return to home when indoors! Didn't think of that. What kind of damage would this thing do if you hit the blades with your hands?
I've cut my finger on a Mavic before - it stings but was not too bad.
@@readysetdrone good to know! Thanks
After 2 months with my Mavic. It still impresses me every time I fly it. Amazing technology!!
The tip about turning return to home off when flying indoor no one talked about until now thank you .
I just got my Mavic that I haven't flew yet. Very usedul info. Thank you very much!
Have you flown it yet?
Very helpful video, not everyone knows this info. The simplest things are often pverlooked.
Also, Autofocus is enabled now, but its still good to keep an eye on WHERE it focuses.
I just got mine a couple days ago. I was nervous flying it after all the issues I've seen on youtube but after watching alot are user error. Like always good video! Thanks
Is the fly more combo bag good?
I just got my Mavic Pro about 4 days ago and I was just flying around in my backyard trying to get a feel for it before taking it out in the world when the app crashed and it immediately initiated the RTH sending it straight up into a tree. Pulling down on the stick did nothing and it just started to destroy the tree and eventually went like a missile into the ground. My heart stopped and I stood there looking at what I thought was the quickest $1,000 I have ever lost. Amazingly the Mavic is built very well and other than 2 of my props exploding and some dirt that needed to be cleaned off there wasn't a scratch on it. I spent the next 5 min. going through the menu and looking for that feature to be turned off so that wouldn't happen again.
I have since found myself creating a small pre-flight checklist to have with the drone before I set off so I remember to change the settings depending on my location and surroundings.

You can stop the return to home on the controller even if the app crashes. There is a stop button on the controller that will make the Mavic hover in place at anytime.
The checklist is a great idea. Also - be sure your app is updated! Hope your later flights have been better! Thanks for watching.
Cameron I would cry. haha
Cameron what is on your checklist?
The Refresh is money wasted. You will not get you drone back before the end of next year.
dji customer support is pitiful

Thanks again for the videos. Just got my mavic pro today. Should I use DJI Go or DJI Go 4 ? I think I have to do a firmware update also because it’s not syncing
I'm sure by now you have found it to use the Go 4. The Go is for Phantom 3
As a new Macic pro platinum owner, I findyour vids very professionel and instructive, Thanks so much
I had an indoor Tripod Mode crash that I mentioned on an early video. Update! They are covering it under warranty and stated, "Warranty per flight data analysis." I really think there could be in issue with the sensors and glass - but thankful of the great support from DJI.
Hi can adjustments be made to the Mavic Pro while it 's Flying, for instance stick control sensitivity and gimbal response and exposure
before I buy it , will this app work on a Motorola droid , and excellent video too man
The app works on iOS and Android. Does the Motorola droid run Android OS? If so, you should be good.
Ready Set Drone thank you man , new to this aspect of the hobby , been flying toy grade only lol aside from a Hubsan 501 , so all this stuff about apps etc is very daunting
The Hubsan 501 is awesome. But the Mavic is amazing - very much worth the upgrade. Safe flying!
Thanks boss. had for a bit, but one setting i never changed was the indoors RTH. appreciate the tip. Few years later and still learning things
So im still waiting on my X-star, ill be getting it either tommorow or the day after. If you'd like, i can tell you how it flies
very helpful and informative Video! another small Thing that i didn't know and was very thankful to learn about: for smoother camera movements, you can adjust the gimbal Speed and (especially) the pitch buffer. Looks a lot better in my opinion.
What causes a blurry image on the right side of the frame 12:36-47 ?? Did you see that??
Any way thanks for sharing .
Thank you for the tips. Subscribed. Getting my first and also a Mavic in a few days. Looking forward to the fun.
Cool! Just checked out your channel. Looks like you guys are having fun. Enjoy your travels. The Mavic will be amazing for documenting your journeys!
Ready Set Drone oh cool, thanks for checking us out 😉
Another good option for a case is them DJI carrying case for the Mavic. It costs $79 and is also included in the Fly More Combo.
Good point about the registration. If this is your second drone, use the same registration # as the first.
nice video and I am sure that others just as myself found your video very helpful. Thanks
Great video. Thanks for all the tips.
Nice ..... Got my Mavic Pro few days already and love it, it update immediately the firmware just need to look more further on features on it.
I don,t have a drone yet but your tips are usefull for later, please go on with reviews
Great tips!! Thank you. I just ordered my DJI Mavic Pro from B&H yesterday.
Great tips👍🏼 I've had mine over a month and still find these helpful. Thanks.
I noticed that at 12:24 when he kids are playing in the park the left side of the video is blurry. What was causing that?
I got my Mavic with the fly more combo and it came with a nice bag for it
Thank you very much for this video. I am a new Drone Pilot and I purchased the Mavic Pro. I am looking to learn all that I can. Thanks for all your work!
You are welcome! Hope you enjoy the Mavic Pro!

Nice video! Did you notice you have a spot on the top left corner that is out of focus? In this part 12:28 you can see it clearly...
Yes - that was shot early in my Mavic flying days. I have become much better at the DJI Go app since then, but the Mavic still sometimes has soft focus in areas on the screen.
Hi great channel dude, I would like to know whether is the Mavic pro a good first drone for an amateur pilot or not.
Great video. for the beginner like me is help me a lot. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the video! Awesome information!
Where can you order the clear plastic camera protector?
Very nice and helpful video as I am a rookie...don't have a drone yet but actually may make this my first.
Do yourself a favor - get a Syma X5C first, get used to flying it, then get a Mavic Pro. The Mavic Pro is easier to fly, but Syma X5C will make you a more confident, better pilot. Thanks for watching!

Another hard case with lock holes can be found at Sam's Club for $ 19.95 ea.
The stock number is MJ-5018. At that price I got two!
Give this URL a shot.
www.samsclub.com/sams/16in-safety-box/prod20353692.ip
Copy and paste the MJ-5018 number into Google and see what you get.
great videos, finally picking up my mavic tomorrow, cant wait.
Thanks for the great advices bro!
Greetings from Malaysia
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. Kind of distracting though when you often look at the camera on your right.
I'm a nerd, not an actor. Thanks for watching though!
My comment was meant to be constructive. I sense that it was not understood such and I apologize.
Can the mavic fly in -20°C ? And can i fly mavic in snow rain/normal water rain?
Great tip on the RTH indoors.
Great tips - especially about avoiding hand-catching. Tks.
How long does the battery last for per charge? Please.
Dave
UK
Around 20 minutes until it is at 20%.
good info thanks. I was wondering about carry on to airplane. so thanks for covering that.
what SD card do you recommend and use for the Mavic?
Speedy2246 - yes please advise/recommend. Thanks.
formatting the SD card doesn't need to be done every time you erase footage. It is a good practice and it only takes couple minutes to do but it's perfectly fine doing this once a month or so. It'll also prolong the life of your SD card.
I have a doubt before buying it: the mavic pro was launched in 2016, but i'm thinking about buying this drone in 2018.

Message me your address and I'll mail you some.
Ready Set Drone cool. where do I send email? thanks!
Another great video!! We've been filming the SHARK MIGRATION in 4K with the Mavic and we know you guys will enjoy it!!!
Pls can you do a video on a propel drone.
About the charger storing it in the case,
turn it around and using a knife cut relief into the
foam so it does not the bind wire grommet.
+Bill Rundell Great tip. Thanks!
I sure am glad you do these videos because I'm one of your followers and a subscriber I just got my Mavic today so I'm turning into what you have to say that'll benefit me so thanks for all the work that you do I really appreciate you
Is this a great drone to start out with? It might be on the expensive side, but would you say someone who don't have a drone and know how to fly this should get it as their first?
I'm not quite sure.
If your from the uk and visiting the USA with my mavic. How does that work with the FAA ? Do I need to register ahead of my arrival
You don't. The FAA registration requirement has been reversed and is no longer necessary.
What's the go to quad Mavic or P4P?
I am so far behind. I just got the pro. I wanted the 3 but can't afford it right now. It has alot of features that are different from my air 2.
Just my thoughts, this camera does have AFC it’s it automatic, I’m a photographer and many cameras video have auto focus, now if they do it well is in question. I’ll start hitting more often because I’m not really happy with the sharpness of 4K video, even on my DJI Action 2 camera. Too bad DJI most likely won’t update the software anymore for the Mavic Pro, my brother gifted his older drone to me I’m just starting to get into it. Enjoying it a lot.
Any advice for drone users coming coming from overseas? Do we still need to register with FAA?
How long will you be in the US? I'd say if you are here for more than 2 weeks or so, you should register and get a number. It's pretty easy and only costs $5 USD. www.faa.gov for more info.
Yep already have registered it on FAA web site. :) is there anything else I should be doing when travelling and taking the drone domestic flights in US? I am already taking the batteries with my hand luggage and planning taking the drone in hand luggage as well. Well that attract any attention?
I'm there just over 2 weeks before heading to Canada via British Columbia.

Ready set Drone. QUESTION??
.
I am planning to buy a MAVIC.
I have ready many YOU TUBES about the I-pad or cell phone connection being
intermittent. Yet the controller is still functional.
.
I found many suggestion and one that is possible with the connection,
between I-phone and controller being the DEFAULT SETTING.
.
Did you encounter this DEFAULT SETTING PROBLEM???
.
HAS IT BEEN FIXED BY THE COMPANY.
.
HAS A POSITIVE SOLUTION BEEN GIVEN.
Please advise.

Ready set drone. Do you think the mavic pro is still worth it in 2019?. Because i'm still saving money for it. Do you think the mavic pro is still worth it?.
(Mavic 2. too expensive for me)
Great, thx for the tips! :D
your spot on there because a few weeks ago I nearly cut the top of my nuckle off very dangerous indeed.
Do you know if the Mavic pro comes with non fly zone warning?
It does have geofencing if that is what you mean.
thank you for tips
what sofware you use to edit the 4k videos please
Adobe Premiere
nice video very informative thank you
can you tell me about a jjrc H8D drone
Can you lock the Gimbal for the fighter pilot view?
I don't think that you can.
Fixed wing mode
if you're in situation that you think you need to hand-catch, how did you take off in the first place?
You generally need less space to take off than you need to land.
great close video words i´d like it congratulations!!!
Very helpful video. Thank you.
Dude - where are you. Looks like Central Texas. Thanks for the tips - good stuff. Just got mine and finding a lot of great info on you tube. Like yours. Appreciate it.
Austin. Thanks for watching!
Cool. Me too. Don't know if there is a support group for drone-aholics or something around in the area where people gather to get ideas about other crap they need to buy, but if so let me know. I'd like to join you guys! Take care!
Awesome video
I was kind of hoping you'd show some things you may have tried for the leg extensions you mention in your slide at :38.
excellent video - from me a complete view - I buy soon Mavic
Yes, be careful hand catching. BTW, when catching the P4 you can be safer than you demonstrated.
1. Never grab the P4 with your fingers on the stick. The craft should not be moving when you grab it.
2. Hover the craft 1' above your head, about 5' away.
3. After the hover proves stable, with your hand OFF THE STICKS, slowly walk to the drone and grab a leg.
4. With a firm grip on a leg, hold it above your head in place and THEN touch the left stick, full down to turn off.
5. AFTER motors turn off above your head, then lower the drone down to turn off the battery.
Thanks!
Tom Spurlock great feedback
Tom Spurlock Simple: you do not get all ground dust into your drone.
Xavier Roberts ....the Mavic Pro has short legs. Better to launch and catch if in long grass 😆
I like to land mine on my Crotch
Great tips thanks !!
So it didnt come, i got scammed, got my money tho, do you know a good drone for the 430 range?
I have drilled a 20mm hole into the flat right side of the gimbal cover to ensure enough aitflow while the cover is attached.
Gerd Staudenmaier That hole will help slow down the overheating process. If the vents are not wide open, they are restricted. This may not hurt the machine for certain, but it may.
Hey, I jus wanted some feedback on what app to use when editing dilm? I use iMovie, but it has a lot of bugs, any suggestions? Thanks.
I'm using Adobe Premiere and it works great for me.
Ready Set Drone Thanks man I appreciate it. I haven't been able to find anything suitable yet. Love the channel, keep up the work.
Great video!!
Nice tips but just don't fly indoors. My new Mavic came crashing down within one or two second it took off. I tried to save it by catching it, but was rather too late and one of the propellers took a good chip of my fingernail. I am not sure why it drifted, probably the ambient light is too low for the sensors.
You have had yours a few months? Prototype for advertisement. I'm happy you got a freebie.
