[@anhonestreviewer7015]

Nice video. Do you have a video for the Mavic 2 Pro's gimbal? Cheers.

[@IaninLondon]

@@anhonestreviewer7015 Yes! Here you go: ua-cam.com/video/fRS0nXMaW9o/v-deo.html

[@KenPoisson_world_traveler]

So Ian, why are the settings different for Android vs iOS?

[@IaninLondon]

@@KenPoisson_world_traveler they're different builds, but it's annoying and pointless...

[@derekwooden4406]

Just what I needed, thanks!

[@tvjer1]

I've watched a lot of videos with tips on getting smooth shots with the Mini 2, but yours is the first to talk about the gimbal settings. Thanks for the insight!

[@Gadgetdad007]

This is the best advice on drone handling I ever seen on UA-cam. This channel is many steps ahead of the others in this category. 👍

[@IaninLondon]

Thank you squire! :)

[@johanmango]

Totally agree. Many tutorials show cinematic videos but they didn't open their gimbal settings. But Ian teach us the most important thing of drone.

[@Barrysnyman1]

Totally Agree

[@timothyroseberry9027]

Thank you for the generosity of putting the configurations in the description and comments. Agreed, the Mini 2 is still one of the most amazing drones out there.

[@timothydriver6751]

Oh so that's simply how it's done! Awesome to know how the right settings make a lot of difference!

[@David-lo4kk]

best kept secret. these setting will be game changers. thanks for the video

[@the_bloke_that_cuts_the_grass]

Thanks for a really simple explanation of these settings. I’ve only flown my Mini 2 a couple of times since I got it so I haven’t really had time to think about fine tuning the controls yet. I think I will start with your suggested settings as you’ve done the trial and error already for us!

[@mikefruge8589]

Great Advice! Thank you!

[@nickh2373]

The best gimbal setting video for the Mini 2 on UA-cam! Great job as usual Ian, these settings are spot on.

[@Barrysnyman1]

Thank you Ian! So many advise out there. You made is to the point. Brilliant.

[@tombernard5810]

Great tips Ian, thanks.

[@TucsonArizona]

Perfect! Thanks so much for this video!

[@thefletchuk]

Thankyou for another great tutorial Ian

[@jaydub1380]

awesome video, thank you so much for explaining this. I sooo needed this!

[@bySterling]

Great tips and settings!

[@bodkinsbestphotography]

Started playing around with these settings after my second flight. Thanks for explaining what each slider does in depth. I do tend to leave sport mode on stock settings as the only purpose I find for it is getting from a to b.

[@robwasnj]

Been using these since watching your first video on the subject. Fantastic, people love how professional and smooth my footage now looks.

[@PhreddCrintt]

FINALLY!!!! Someone who knows what they are talking about! Thank you sooo much Ian. You have a new subscriber.

[@andyhill262]

Really helpful - thank you

[@skyviews.]

Great video thx for sharing!

[@TheGhostPlanet]

Great tutorial. Thank you! 😊

[@felixonrails]

Superb explanation. Thanks Ian!

[@jamesruse9708]

Great video, Ian. Very helpful. I just bought the Air 2s and although I have played with these settings, it's nice to see a well composed video on recommended settings. I especially appreciate you printing the settings for Normal Mode in the description below. And since I use an iPhone, posting the IOS settings is gold. Thank you!

[@tito7021]

thank you for a very clear and to the point vid

[@racymasey]

Thank you Ian, just what I needed to know for setting up the awesome Mini2.

[@gianm1064]

Awesome video! Found this super useful

Awesome! Well done Ian! Thank you!

[@gerardmorgan5246]

Brilliant advice, definitely will use those settings. Thanks

Great tips. Thanks

[@beckerqueiroz]

Thank you so much, this was by far the most helpful video I've seen on the DJI Mini 2. You're the best!

[@IaninLondon]

Great stuff! Cheers!

[@DREW420]

Used these as guidelines to find my perfect settings. Great Video, awesome music choice! Morcheeba is just so smooth

[@phamily6325]

Wowoow thanks soooo much this is gold

[@GregThurtle]

useful information thanks Ian!

[@cmreis1740]

Great info video, thank you.

[@NewbieDaddy]

Great video for beginners like me...what i loved about the description is that you did not simply tell the suitable values but you also demonstrated how the drone behaves at extreme value settings...grt...i will try these soon and hopefully i will get smoother videos without automated modes...thanks a lot!!

[@markmurphy5486]

Great, thanks so much :)

[@pauldavies9420]

Excellent advice as usual Ian, many thanks.

[@produceahit123]

Awesome info my friend! Thank you much, keep up the great work!

[@mikehickman1949]

Thanks Ian - had remembered to adjust my Pitch settings but forgot about the Yaw - explains why my shots were spinning around :)

[@Rikarious]

explained it all well. gna use these for cine mode.

[@KirstenMathers]

Great video which makes it easy to understand - thanks!

[@richardheaton2607]

Great timed tutorial just what I was looking for 👍👍

[@IslamicTerd2]

I've a DJI 2s coming on Thursday I'll be trying these settings. Thanks for the video

[@NickB_Yorkshire]

Great stuff 👍🏼. Thanks Ian. My biggest problem, two weeks into drone flying as a complete beginner, is the smoothness. Your advice is going to make such a massive difference 👍🏼😊

[@42robwalker]

Thanks Ian, really useful 👍🏼🍺

[@santhonus4028]

Exactly what I was looking for--getting my first drone tomorrow and can't wait to get started. Thank you for the thorough explanation and demonstration!

[@alejandroorozco864]

thanks alot for this video

[@eagleviewquadcopter]

Thank you Ian 😁👍

[@davidharle952]

Thank you buddy from Yuma Arizona. I watch a lot of your videos, all of them have helped me a lot with my mini 2.

Great stuff. Loved AZ when we've had road trips thru there 🤠😎

[@los_kiros]

Thank you very much, man. This video make settings adjustement crystal clear!

[@TheGiokink]

Excellent tips thanks a lot

[@londonukguy2006]

Thanks for another very useful video Ian. Much appreciated.

[@thekiteflyer1]

Cheers for another handy video, Ian, I really must get out and fly mine more now the better weather is coming

[@RandomRailways]

Your tutorials and drone advice films are the clearest and most helpful I've come across on YT. Thanks.
A small addendum though. Maybe the Mini 2 menus have been updated, but mine doesn't have "advanced Gimbal Settings", but the same controls can be found under "Gain & Expo Tuning". And Pitch is now called Gimbal. There's an additional control setting for "Expo" in Normal & Sport modes

[@IaninLondon]

They updated the menu structure again..... Watch this one! 👍🏻👍🏻ua-cam.com/video/JPiV4RFpCqU/v-deo.html

[@Playitrealloud]

Great video instruction. Thanks for taking the time to compare the settings in editing….nice job!

[@KenPoisson_world_traveler]

Thanks again Ian. Great explanations and amazing videos!

[@TheJWC56RSA]

Nicely explained!

[@wallstreetcrash1]

Thanks Ian.

[@brianjordan5629]

Truly helpful info! Stabilization can be really tricky. Mini 2 is a great drone and it sure is great to know how to get the best stabilization out of it.

[@troopz4683]

Top notch video as always, Easy to follow and understand. Thanks Ian.

[@MarcMelissa]

Very Nice, this helps me a lot to get better shots! Big thanks!
