Most important lesson learned in this video was turning on those gridlines. I did turn on 1 of them but, I’m going to turn on all 3 so, that I can set up my shot a lot better and know exactly where my drone is flying. Thanks for the tips!
Newbie here, appreciate all the details provided in this tutorial. I especially like the fact that you provide the timestamp so when I need to review a particular setting you refer to I can find it easy. A very professionally done channel... Thanks
I've been a professional videographer for 30+ years and I chose to get the dji mini 2 as my first drone. Just subscribed to your channel and wanted to say thank you for all of the helpful tips. I'm getting it as a Christmas present and I've been watching your videos to learn as much as I can before my first flight. Keep them coming!
@@RanchoBurger it's a great little drone. Just remember it doesn't have obstacle avoidance. I had mine hovering and it drifted into a tree. Luckily it survived 👍
Thanks for the tips Aldrin, very helpful as always. I noticed the phone charging function only provides 0.5A which is half the standard charge rate from iPhone OEM chargers that typically come with iPhones. Just thought I would point that out. It certainly helps reduce the drain on the phones battery which is helpful. I still have to do some testing to see if "the phone charging" feature maintains my phone battery level or simply allows it to drain slower. I have found that it certainly doesn't put enough charge into the phone to increase the battery level when phone charging is enabled. That's how it is for my phone anyway. Again, thanks for the tip. Most if not all of these tips apply to the Mavic Air 2 as well.
Thanks a lot man. Great videos. I had the original mini but returned to Amazon because mini 2 came out. You have helped a lot and the phone charging setting really helps because I never charge my iPhone 12z
Thanks for your valuable tips. I have chosen to first learn and listen to you who have a solid background and experience of DJI Mini 2. Your education via your film clips is a good school for my upcoming investment. All the best from me in Sweden.
Great information. I use the same setup for my Mavic Air 2 as well. It's because of folks like Aldryn and what he does with flytpath that makes things way easier for new pilots. Keep up the great work Aldryn!!
Aldryn, just purchased my Mini 2 and have re-subscribed to your channel knowing that you would have GREAT informational videos (as before for the Mavic Pro). Have not used a drone for over a year due to unforeseen circumstances...but I am back & excited to start flying again.
Tip 8: In the same way you need to go back and select 4K Quickshots once in the Quickshots mode, you also need to select Panorama then go back to camera settings and reselect JPEG & RAW. Otherwise, you don't get the individual DNGs from the Panorama that you can stitch in Lightroom. At the moment, there is a bug with these panorama DNGs but it should be fixed soon. I hope. EDIT: DJI support have confirmed to me that they have worked out what the issue is and that it will be fixed in an upcoming firmware.
My apologies for the late response, thank you for your support and knowledge. Looking forward to more you have to share about filming droning take quality pics.
I literally seen a reviewer of this drone say quick shots only support 1080p, they must of got confused by the menus 😂, great video keep up the good work
I just received my Mini 2 today The weather forecast is bleak. So I guess I am grounded for the foreseeable future. This is my first drone and I am really excited to get it in the air. Not only is this chanel super informative, it's also taking some of the sting out of having to wait. Thanks for the great videos.
@@JohnSmith-jk7qo but my PS4 Pro works just fine. Games look just as good. Just for better load times and 60 FPS? Not worth it right now. I’ve been wanting a drone for a while now.
I agree. This is definitely the drone to get. I enjoy flying it a lot and you get a lot for a good price. DJI has great customer service, so if you do crash, you can ship it to them or go to a store. You just don’t get that with many other competitors.
This drone is the reason I didn't but the new XBox X Series. There's nothing wrong with my XBox One X. Would rather treat myself to a Mini 2 this Christmas.
I just got a mini 2 a few days ago and in researching it discovered your channel. Great information, thank you. I'm pretty sure you're going to be my new best friend
Hi, here live from Portugal. Thanks again for your tips. Big channel this one, that i subscribed a few weeks ago when i bought the Mavic Mini, and recently the Mini 2 also, that is a big drone upgrade! Great advices and always easy to understand. congratulations again!
I have had the Mini 2 for the last 2 weeks but the wife is making me wait until Xmas day before I can have it 😂. After watching all of your videos for the last few weeks I'm sure I will be a pro at flying it and a pro with the perfect settings
Thanks for a very informative video! You are very knowledgeable and you don’t over complicate things! I just subscribed, I will be buying some of you’re merch! Thanks again sir!
Hello Aldryn. Thank you for these excellent tips for the Mavic Mini 2 and for most other drones. Yes, these are very helpfully setting to aid in one's flights and video/image shooting. Again, thanks for this helpful tutorial. I wish you and your family a safe and happy Thanksgiving.
Great info for a new flyer like me. And here is some idea for your video, I would like to see a video that tells me more about detail of custom gimbal setting. There are some youtuber talk about it, but not very deep enough.
Thanks for the tips . All most all the you tubers talk about only one side of the story which is drone and it’s specifications or comparisons . It would be REALLY helpful if a video is made comparing the drone companies warranties and extended warranties . And also which customer service is the best.
Hard to do. How do u compare customer service of a companies dealing with hundreds of thousands of drones against another with a few thousand drones out there.
@@FlytPath you are right . It’s just that I have seen couple of my friends happy with their respectable drones but stressed out with the customer service of the companies . So just wondered a UA-cam video would be nice if someone could explain about their documentation part . Anyway cheers 👍.
As usual another well presented and informative video, keep up the good work. All I need now is some time off that coincides with decent weather to get out and try it out.
Wow, thanks so much for these tips! I just received my Mini 2 today and I’m starting to get it set up. These are some of the exact settings I was wondering if it had available, and was needing to find, so you just saved me the time of searching for them! 🙌
Don't worry, even without a C-marking, you will be allowed to fly it after 2023 as an open class subcategory A1 drone. There is no difference from today (article 20a in EU 2019/947).
@@thomaskolb8785 yes. All legacy sub 250gr will be allowed to fly in subcategory A1 after the transition period. But knowing how politicians change their mind, I prefer to have the C0 class marking. I am not in a hurry to change. Despite not being required to fly the Mini I already have the A1/A3 pilot certification.
@@armandoferreira8790 Yes, that is of course true, but personally I think the EASA safety regulations are pretty solid now,. I am more worried about the regulations governing the privacy aspects, regarding how and where and of what you are allowed to take pictures - and what you are allowed to do with them. I believe those might change in the future.
Always appreciate your succinct on point videos. Superfluous video footage is the first thing leading to changing the channel. Im not a captured audience. 😉
Excellent video, thanks. I was reviewing my footage and noticed the resolution difference between arriving for a quickshot, during and after. Solved, thanks.

Yep same here.
I love mini 2
I couldn't tell
Behh, me too
I have one and I love it.
I like the Mini 3 better.
@@Voltis-5 yeah because you like specs I love the looks on the mini 2

So how've you enjoyed your M2? Gonna be getting one soon, myself.
@@RanchoBurger it's a great little drone. Just remember it doesn't have obstacle avoidance. I had mine hovering and it drifted into a tree. Luckily it survived 👍
I really liked the center point tip for fly throughs! You probably should mention that you'll want your gimbal at 0 deg. to use this.
Loved the gridlines tip for the centre point to help you navigate through gaps. Ingenious!
in images ~ turning on the 4:3 also gives you the full sensor ~ they can be cropped however you want in post
Facts!
Really?
@@caydn2 yes
thanks for the tip 👍
Seems like this would help with minimizing miscalculations above and below to avoid crashing
Thanks for this video, I've just moved to the Mini 2 from my Anafi. Both totally different Apps. So this tutorial has helped me a lot.

Glued to all this man has to say about the Dji mini. Really sound straightforward advice. Has added greatly to my drone experience. Thanks.
👊🏼🙏
Verry handy , that gridline is super , I had not seen it that way. For flying tru tree’s and stuff 👌👌👌
I just started flying one of these drones and this video has helped me understand it so much better. Thank you.
A couple weeks ago I bought the DJI Mini from Costco, and returned it (still in box) when I heard the "2" was coming out. Thanks for the video!
Aldryn, just purchased my Mini 2 and have re-subscribed to your channel knowing that you would have GREAT informational videos (as before for the Mavic Pro). Have not used a drone for over a year due to unforeseen circumstances...but I am back & excited to start flying again.
Good tip on the resolution for Quickshots! I was wondering how people were getting 4K resolution, when all I was getting was 1080P. Thanks!!
Glad I could help!

Sweet, my mini 2 arrived 10mims ago I came here to set up and love it
Time to charge and go play
Thanks for posting.UPS just brought mine today.New to camera drones,only interested in the basics for now.Well presented.
I was tossed between a PS5 and this.... I’m getting this lol
You should get the ps5 it is way more worth it and it’s cheaper

Glad to help
To the point we need more people doing videos like this not talking for minutes about nothing lol
People posing for broll 😂
right? so many of these DJI Mini 2 videos are people just comparing it to a Mini for like 8 minutes and then not showing any flight stuff
FlyPath I'll have to go in & change my settings also ! Thanks for the Tips & Great Video !
Np glad to help
Just got my mini 2 the other day and this video has great tips, thank you!
Thank you for the explanation of Mini 2.
Thank you as I was looking for these very answers to help me fly! Awesome
The exposure settings helped me a ton thank you
I just got myself a Mini 2 and love it from first flight! These are really good things to have in mind! 🤝

Excellent tip on how to record quickshots in 4K. I wish DJI would put all camera settings in one menu.
Very good information! Quick and to the point. I'll watch it again when I have my drone and app turned on! Thanks for the post!

Nice tips Aldryn. I am still with my Mini 1 and only consider switching later when the Mini 2 has a C0 class marking for EU.
