Got mine today! It was in Cincinnati from Monday through Friday doing nothing. I’m afraid if I hit return to home…it will fly to Cincinnati. Great video Shawn. If I hear of someone getting a drone, I always send them a link to your “Beginners Guide” videos. No one does it better.
Who pray tell is this, doing an Air Photography Beginner video? I don't recognize these slimmer, svelte hands! Said with nothing but huge respect and admiration. Your recent years journey, figuratively and geographically has be an inspirational wonder to many, myself included. As to the subject at hand (punintentional) have you experienced, or seen the foward/back "rocking" motion the Air 3S does undersome conditions, I think specifically when flying towards a low sun? We had sensor issues on Mavic 3 that caused it to gain altitude all the way to whatever the "maximum altitude" was set to. Drone Wilder had it over the water on a range test, I experienced it on a field during sunset. There was a "fixed some bugs" update 2 days back so maybe it's been resolved!
Another newbie here, looking for mine to arrive tomorrow. This tutorial is fantastic and looking forward to getting more in depth with the Air 3S. Thanks a million.
This drone looks great. I’m thinking of getting one but have never had a drone previously. Is the tracking any good? Do you think it’s quite easy to control for a newbie or much too complicated?
You missed the important part of installing the propellers to the motors , I have been looking for tutorials that throw some light on this aspect , I am a complete newbie
Thanks, another great video. My last drone (minus the NEO) was the Mini3 Pro... so trying to decide if I want to wait for the eventual Mini5 Pro or just get this one. Just a casual user for vacations and such. Decisions decisions.
Question. I just purchase an Air 3s and Mini 4 pro. I registered the Air 3S through Transport Canada. Wondering about the registration number. Can I stick the label on one of the arms of the drone. Or the main body. And should the number be in black or white? Thanks for your great reviews. Larry from Goderich, ON.
This is awesome, makes me much less anxious about my first flight when mine shows up! Only thing I have to worry about is the return to home setup, I'm looking around and am not seeing anything on setup, I'm probably overthinking it but it would be nice to see the setup.
Returned to home, just works automatically. There’s nothing really to set up. Just launch the drone fly round and press return to home. It’ll do the rest. It’ll build a map as you’re flying. You don’t have to do anything. Just a good idea to make sure you have a good satellite connection before launching.
thanks -- my RC2 only shows Mini 4 pro or A3 in the device screen and wont connect to my A3s-- do I need to unpair drone from the RC that came with my basic fly more?
I'm having a hard time deciding between this drone and the Mavic 3 Classic before DJI drones are potentially banned in the U.S. I'm leaning towards the Mavic 3 because of the larger sensor, aperture (I'm a photographer), extended range, and better wind resistance. I already own a Mini 2. Any quick suggestions? I know the Mavic 4 is coming, but I’m not confident it will arrive before the ban. Thanks in advance.
Great video and tutorial. I just purchased my first drone the Air 3 s. I did the setup. After while going through the menus on the controler. The compass and IMU was highlighted in blue to calibrate. I thought I had to do the recalibrations. So I performed them. I hope I did them right. I haven’t done my first flight. As I don’t want the drone to fly out of control. Should I reset to factory settings and redo the setup? Hope you can help with any advise. I’m waiting for the mini 5 pro. Thanks. Larry from Goderich Ont
I know Godrich very well. I lived in Clinton for many years. You should be good as long as you calibrated and you’re not getting any errors. Perhaps before your flight, let it hover a bit move it around and see how it’s behaving.
Question...when you register and they give you your FAA number to put on your drone, than you get another drone is the number the same you put on the 2nd drone?
I’m not sure about the US in Canada. Every drone has a unique number. Every drone has to be registered separately. I think that is different in the US. I think you have one number for all your drones.
Yesterday i printed 2-3 photos from the main camera (printed photo dimensions 20cmx30cm), very disappointed about the quality guys... I'll wait for Mavic 4...
As someone who plans to get his first drone ever, I appreciate this video. Thank you!

Shawn, thank you for an excellent tutorial for a newbie. You Rock. I will look forward to learning more from your videos 👍🏿🙏🏾.
Thank you very much. I appreciate that.
I got a cheapo off Amazon to get the basics of flying down. I plan on this being my first "real" drone in a few months. Thanks
Thank you, very helpfull!!!
Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it
Nice informative video!!! 💪💪💪🙌
much appreciated for such an instructional and informative video. Thank you..
Glad it was helpful!

I’m glad you enjoyed it

DJI Tutorials has a UA-cam page with some really great videos for beginners too! Happy flying
Plan on purchasing one,(Fly more kit). Hope to take some nice footage of the Philippines.
I just bought this as my first drone and and these videos help, still managed to crash it by not trusting the technology
Thanks, another great video. My last drone (minus the NEO) was the Mini3 Pro... so trying to decide if I want to wait for the eventual Mini5 Pro or just get this one. Just a casual user for vacations and such. Decisions decisions.
Great

Awesome, thanks so much! I knew I was overthinking it, lol.
thanks -- my RC2 only shows Mini 4 pro or A3 in the device screen and wont connect to my A3s-- do I need to unpair drone from the RC that came with my basic fly more?
Whats the speed on this thing compared to the air 2s?

Ok will I get any error is it’s not calibrated correct? Same with the IMU. Thanks.

Still waiting on mine, stuck somewhere in Virginia.
Hopefully you get it soon
Yesterday i printed 2-3 photos from the main camera (printed photo dimensions 20cmx30cm), very disappointed about the quality guys...
I'll wait for Mavic 4...
Can shoot D Log in Quick Shots?
Wondering the same thing … i have searched everywhere and do not think you can, however i do not see why not. So i hope DJI enables this soon
Good question I’ve never actually tried that. I will look into it and get back to you might take me a couple of days.
