Ed Ricker Vlogs informative video but the refresh plan doesn't cover a lost drone as you said in the video. Only non water damaged where you have the majority of the parts intact.
Ed Ricker Vlogs but hI have already bought my Mavic Pro and the Care plan lol. You have made a good video clip, looking forward to seeing more:)
Great video Ed! Thanks!!
Ed Ricker Vlogs Nice info, thanks
ThePROFESS10NAL your so right. I thought he was gonna be a typical UA-camr with the fake voice. It's refreshing to see someone who knows what they're doing..👍👍👍
Even more helpful hint:
Change chipped propellers asap, they cause vibrations which can affect gyros and cause various problems.
Thanks, I actually did a few days after I made this video. Good advice. Thanks!
Green Silver how often would you change the propellers?
Nero Fiorano Change propellers if there is any doubt.
Nero Fiorano
I'd probably change them when they start becoming loose on the blade hinges or if there is a crack or a chip.
I second that. better change the props. for so many reasons.
I Never thought of putting my phone on Airplane mode. Thank you for that helpful hint.
No prob, thanks for watching!
You could also try Do Not Disturb, that works just as good but it won't save your battery as much
Ed. Thanks for another great video. You talk at a great pace so one can easily "take in" everything you're saying which is important because you always cover important and pertinent topics for the Mavic Pro. Keep up the great work.
Thank you very much for your video, I just ordered my first drone... and found your videos very informative, I appreciate your time and efforts showing us newbies how to fly drones.
Love the fact that you speak plain simple English and do not assume that we will understand generalities but explain ALL steps!!! Please keep up the great video's.
A very nicely done video, thank you. If you change out that damaged prop, you won't have to worry about vibration c
caused by imbalance damaging the motor. Take care, Steve
Thank you for a very nice casual informative presentation. I felt like I was sitting there with you listening intently, able to hear ever word. What a neat hobby. Going to drone store soon learn and explore but now I "covet" this Mavic Pro.
Entertaining. More importantly, probably the most informative Mavic video collection I've found. Love it man, keep up the good work.
Going through this new pilot playlist since mine just arrived today. Very helpful going over the features and what to keep in mind while flying. Thank you for posting.
I love the laid back attitude that you have in your videos. Great work.
Watched one of your videos and it made me decide to buy the Mavic Pro. Love your style and the way you seemed to be surprised by the things you just said yourself. Keep up the good work! Subscribed
I love your videos! I finally today got my Mavic pro put together and flew for the first time -Awesome! So stable compared to my Phantom 3 standard. Thanks so much for these tutorials, so helpful.
Just ordered a Mavic,Thanks for the info on this quad it's definitely helpful learning all I can about it before it comes.
Been looking at different reviews and this one is great! Just what I needed to hear! Will be getting one very soon! Thanks
Very nicely done. I've been flying The Inspire for a couple years now...just picked up the Mavic. I appreciate the clear, concise presentation. Thanks.
Thanks for watching Mike! How do you like the Mavic in comparison with the Inspire?
One of the best most useful reviews ive seen online! Thinking about upgrading from a Phantom 3 at the moment, as want to carry in my bike pack for mountainous adventures and this has just sold it to me! Cheers dude great work!
Awesome, glad to help! I'm sure the Mavic would be great for your uses.
Great Tips Ed, Im a newbie still waitimg for shipment from Dji excited & thankful for your videos & experiences shared. thanks
came across your channel. You really gave off a genuine feeling. You've got my subscription sir.
Thanks! I appreciate it, thanks for the subscribe.
I really liked your production on this video. Excellent job showing the clips while narrating the various Mavic tops and limitations. Good stuff.
Thanks! I try to make it interesting :D
Thanks for watching!
I bought a mavic pro last week.... I am loving this thing!
Thanks for sharing Ed. Your really a very good presentor. Looking forward to getting my Magic.
Thankyou very much for your videos. I really enjoy watching them. The footages are beautiful, you do good video edit, and the amount of humor is great. Not too much. When I see your footages I wish I had a DJI, but as a beginner I chose a Hubsan H502S. Now I look forward to advance in the drone world... Keep up the good work.
Thank you for wearing a mic. Too many people do a unboxing or whatever and rely upon the mic in the camera. A few have boom mics, but I think the little clip on ones work great. If you could do a few videos of the different modes, ranging from how you set yours for recreational flights to settings used for filming.
Yeah I always try to wear a mic for videos like this...thanks for noticing and for watching!
Good suggestions, I'll add them to my idea list.
I watched a number of posts on the Mavic (good/bad/ugly) and yours ranks up there with the best. True useful user feedback. Just fyi others, i also hit the wall while flying indoors. After my crash i kept getting Gimbal Shake Error. the gimbal has three "clip in" arms which dislodge when crashed. Slip them back in, especially the one behind the gimbal itself!
Thanks! Glad everything turned out well for you
Great comprehensive look at the Mavic, Ed! Just got mine in the mail, my 2nd drone with my 1st being the Phantom 4. Really excited to see what this little guy can do!
Good luck, thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. They are so helpful.
You do a great job with the videos......your diction is clear and paced well........thank you. Keep them coming. I'm a Mavic Pro beginner.
great vid man just got my maverick pro last week watched some of your vids helped me get started cheers.
awesome bit of kit sports mode is crazy fast
phill t mavic
I've tried all the c1 or c2 programmable settings. I recommend c1 for focus and c2 for exposure lock. That's most helpful to me.
Hey Ed. Very cool, laid back video with a lot of valuable information. Thanks!
Great Video! Thanks man! Just got my Mavic and i'm enjoying these helpful videos!
Same here, relate to some and learned from a few more. Great job Ed! Had mine for about a week now, but weather here and working full time makes it hard to get air time. Gotta surf youtube for other flyers to get more informed. :) So far I love this thing, but I have always been into anything RC since my first RC car 39yrs ago.
Thanks for the candid insights. You may be only one of two guys on UA-cam that have pointed out the 1080 60fps problem. It's definitely not a deal breaker, but it's nice to know the real deal before buying. Thanks again.
1st flight with this weekend. Nervous as hell but looking forward to it. Baby steps is the one thing I'm keeping in mind.
Thank you for your explanations on thei drone, I truly appreciate it.
I am considering purchasing one.
Mavic pro has in camera softening at sharpness settings of zero or below
The in camera sharpening can be softened later if its too sharp for you
I'm glad you mentioned the FAA part. I already knew about it, but I feel like not enough people know about it even though it's legally required.
Definitely, it's important! Thanks for watching
Excellent video Ed - Very professional, informative and entertaining. Some useful info here that I haven't seen anywhere else.
Thanks for the feedback! Glad I was of help.
Keep up the good work! I never get bored with your vids!
Nice stuff! Looking forward to getting my Platinum up and running!
I think you do a good job conveying drone info. Keep up the good work!
thanks for the return to home set hight hadn't thought about that. I also have had a couple of random disconnects causing a tree collision.
No prob, sorry to hear about your issues. Thanks for watching!
Dude that was some sweet info, you started a bit wacky lol, but then kick it in to high gear with the info. Clear pure good stuff. Thanks man. 😊👍
Haha thanks man
The start of this video was flipping phenomenal! Kudos.
Thanks for watching Chad!
Nice video with great tips. I get my Mavic next week ☺ This helps since I have never flown a drown.
Wanting to buy a Mavic Pro so I'm doing all the research that I can. Your video was great information. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Love the videos bro. I just bought a mavic and I love it. II always go to your page if I have questions about it . Thanks for the help
So me and my mavic in the beginning I'm so in love with it 😍😍
Entertaining video full of information I've been looking for. You hit the nail on the head, thanks!!
Thanks for watching!
I like the homemade sound track and nice guitar playing!
Hey Ed, very nice videos! I'm getting a mavic pro today (literally in delivery). Thanks for the many nice videos, you have a great and REAL style. I subscribed. Keep em coming. Regards from Nerja (Málaga, Spain)!
Thanks Christian, I appreciate that!
Great videos - just picked up a Mavic to complement my Inspire 1. So reassuring to hear someone talk about the FAA and drone laws :)
Great to see content like this - nice work! Been meaning to do some myself but honestly haven't found the time. Good tip about the phone calls interrupting the flight, happened when I was in confined quarters before and wasn't ideal. The RTH altitude is an essential twerk, especially with the terrain here in New Zealand - I've put mine as high as 100m before - and also worth noting that you an change the default signal-loss behaviour, and I've found the stop and hover setting useful if you lose line of sight, gives you time to avoid panic and reestablish signal by moving yourself back within range rather than having the Mavic Pro make up its own mind about where to fly.
Hey Eden, good ideas there. Yeah, it's made me nervous a few times when I had it about 3000 feet away and it lost connection behind some buildings/hills, but a nice 250 foot return to home brought it back lovely.
Thanks for watching!
I don't yet have the Mavic its on back order in the UK, so I am looking at a lot of UA-cam videos for guidance and information. I found your comments in Vlog 231 really useful. I have subscribed too so that when the time comes I can find you again. Thanks
Thanks for watching, glad you've found useful info in my videos. Thanks for the sub!
Hey I just bought a Magic Pro, I should be receiving it tomorrow, looking fed to enjoying it, very good tips by the way, tx
Getting excited. Ordered my Mavic a couple of days ago! Wish it would ship!
I subscribed because you played checkers with your drone, I got mine last month,, best thing ever to own.
haha thanks, it's definitely an awesome drone!
Thanx for fine work w. good points.
Keep them coming.
For iPhone users, you can download a an application called "Hover". It will display a map where you can and can't fly per the FAA. as well as other pertinent data regarding flying the drone
Great video, I'm considering getting a mavic pro, so I'm soaking up all the info I can get prior to purchasing one, everything I've seen looks pretty positive on the drone.
Thanks for the info.
Awesome, it's definitely an amazing drone for the size and price. Good luck!
Not sure you need airplane mode. If you have an iPhone you can turn on Do Not Disturb to kill calls, also to remove that grain and banding, use polar pro UV filters.
Very nice and helpful video Ed, I am going to have my Mavic Pro soon :)
this is your first video I have seen, I subscribed. I enjoyed your style of editing
Highly Informative videos, I really appreciate then as anew Mavic owner!! You earned a sub
Great video, I am looking forward into owning one of these little mavics.
Thanks, good luck when you get one!
The way you talk made me decide to start saving for one! New subscriber right here :)

Thanks!
Nice video. Just got my Mavic and appreciated your review.
Good luck, thanks for watching!
Great video ! thanks for sharing.. My first flight with the Mavic Pro, i hit the RTH button, it was hovering just a few metres in front of me, i thought it was just going to land. it shot up a few feet as i realised there were branches it was going to hit, i quickly pulled the down stick and held it, which brought up a window on screen "cancel RTH?" still holding the stick down, the drone frozen in mid air, it cancelled the rth and i was able to land it myself.. phew !! i just thought this might help another beginner :)
Looking to purchase a Mavic Pro. Very informative video thanks.
You do good videos on the Mavic. Keep it up!
Love your opening!
Hey Ed,
Do you have any videos discussing the standout features?
Great job with the videos. Thanks a lot man
D
nice video, maybe you should get that controller check, bad things can happen if it disconnected.
Thanks I checked out both of them and can't decide which one to buy, I love filming so looking at phantom 4 pro but I do like Mavic, help decide lol
nice video brother thanks for the good info
awesome footage. I love the way you put this together i suscribed because of this video
Thank you for watching!
Love my new Mavic!!!
WOW! There's so much information I did not realize. Thank you so much! Now, if I can only practice on my patience on waiting to receive my pre-order from Amazon release date on Feb.15th! : (
Good luck with your new drone once it comes! Watching videos like this will really help you hit the ground running.
Thanks for watching!
nice video, well made. informative and on point. subbed! 👍
This video was really helpful. Thank you.
Awesome, thanks for watching!
Great Video! Thanks for the info! keep em comin!
Thanks!
Quality as always. My new fav You Tuber.
LMAO Still laughing at Harris' reaction to your close call. Great vid. Thanks Ed.
Thanks for some great insights!
Great videos ed.. I am thinking about getting the Mavic Pro. I am a beginner and wondered if you think the Mavic is a good choice.
Keep up the good work
Awesome video man, you answered one of my long time question, Phone call during flight. :D thanks for the TIPs, and BTW my Mavic is less than a week to arrival schedule :D
Awesome, good luck with your new Mavic!
not sure what the updates were exactly, but my auto focus works perfectly, haven't had to tap the screen yet!
simple explanation and clear thanks. DC
Awesome, glad it helped.
Great content and nicely made. Cheers man :)
If you reset your camera in the mavic settings it fixes the auto focus problem. I was watching some other videos where a couple people had the same problem, I myself had it aswell. Now it's all fixed and my videos are crystal clear (:
Thanks Grant! I do also know that the newer app versions have an autofocus feature that truly focuses as the drone operates. When I first got it, that wasn't possible.
Even on the newer app my autofocus still was a bit glitchy, but ever since I recalibrated it seems to have fixed it thankfully.
can you make a video on how to avoid & handle aircraft disconnected issue?
Did you ever have problems with the Mavic Pro footage. my footage is always blurry on the lower right side, I tried everything. thanks.
Hi Ed, Hope you are well, I heard that there is a tracking mode. what i mean is that you can set the drone to track a person walking/running at a specific distance and also you can get the drone to do a 360 around that person while they are walking or running and it will track and focus on the person. How do you set that up? Thanks, Ian
Good video, thanks!
good video. keep sending them.
Nice work. Good info and professional review.
Thanks for watching Brian!
Oh!! Thank you so much!!
