New to drones and a channel like this is fantastic! I really enjoy your delivery of the information and it helps to see I'm not alone in my initial nervousness to fly lol. Bought a DJI Mini 3 about a week ago and still practicing joystick moves to get smooth control of the drone.
I have owned drones as a hobby flier, for almost 7 years, just flying around my own neighborhood ,not bothering anybody ,but lately with all the rules they have come up with, it sounds more complicated than when I had my commercial helicopter license. MY Q500 4K homes in on the transmitter ,not the take off spot, on return to home it will come back, land and shut down with no input from me. I enjoyed flying and see it as a small plastic toy, not a full size airplane, like the rules seem to see them. I have not flown them in over a year because of all the scary rules. I am 75 years old now and it seems like every time I find a hobby I enjoy, they regulate it out of my budget.
That is really a shame as I don’t think they are quite on the level as a 747
@@fireball2275 Tell the FAA that. LOL Of course there may be a few different rules for flying a 747 in your own back yard.
@@bb1040 just a few...
@@fireball2275 correct

Great tips; thanks Russ!
Another tip for more control when landing is switching the fly mode to cinema on the last few feet. This allows for smaller and smoother moves to get it to land on the pad in case it's a bit off.
This is EXACTLY what I’ve been going though this week. I got my first drone the DJI Mini 2 three days ago and I’m slowly getting less scared of it by flying daily. Thanks for this.
Ronald, I have flown for a few years and the most secure feeling is with the Mavic Mini 2. I have just gotten the Mini 3 Pro and letting the Mini 2 go with much afterthought. Very cool drone.
3 day as of today myself. Mini 2 as well
I’m going to get the mini 3 pro in a month!
Update: I have had so much fun with my Mini 2 this summer that I decided to get myself an early Christmas present and I ordered a DJI Air 2S. I’ll let you know how it goes when I receive it.
When I was a beginner, the landing pad was a great tool to practice manual returns and landings. One you get comfortable with that, hand launching and landing is much easier to do.
I’ve been flying drones for a little over two years and didn’t really consider myself a beginner but did learn a couple of awesome tips from this video. Great job Russ and thanks for the help. I think I heard it 13 times including the two during your discussion of how to win.
Marvelous idea for this video, Russ. Thanks for it. 💛🙏🏼
Thanks for this information on this video and for your previous ones that have been very useful and informative.
Great video, Russ. You always know what we newbies need. Not only are your videos must-watch, they are must-RE-watch!
As everyone knows, practice is very important for drone shooting. What can be recommended here furthere is while staying indoor you can get a drone simulator called SimuDrone. You can use your own DJI remote controller for practice. Thanks any way.
Description was spot on. Good tips for seasoned flyers and new pilots.
Yea, do more of these Wes. Great idea & video.
Great tips, you do a great job. Thanks Russ.
Very helpful video. Thanks a lot 👍🏼🙂
Thanks for the info, i just ordered my first drone and i have learned a lot. Thanks and keep the info coming.
That was some good information, Thanks...
I always really enjoy your videos. Always helpful and relative and informative. This one in particular. I'm always stressed when flying. This helped.
Superb for Newbies! Outstanding calming the waters.
Thanks Russ, herd Contrast 13 times & I’m from NJ. Great stuff keep it coming. Stay safe & Stay in the air!
Thx, Russ. I learned a lot. Excellent lessons.
Thank you, this video is very informational
This is really great info. I need these tips to be comfortable flying. Thank you.
I heard the word “contrast” 11 times in the instructions and 2 more times when you were telling us about the give away. I’m located in Fort worth, TX. I have an Ecoflow plus Booster and the solar panels. They are great and they got me through several power problems during power outages from weather problems. Once again, Ecoflow is the bomb. Love your videos!
Powerstation is a handy way when flying drones and Ecoflow is a very good brand in my experience.
Loved this video. Thanks
Tons of info! I appreciate it.
I always learn something from you.!!
Great tips and and video!
Russ, I have been following your channel for 6 months or so and have watched most of your videos. I found you after buying my Mini 2 looking for just this type of helpful information. I counted 13 "contrasts". Checking in from Pennsylvania. Keep up the good work!
Thank you I was also unaware of the contrast issues
Great video with some excellent and helpful considerations!
Hi Russ that was very informative for a new drone pilot. I really appreciate it and i will come back to it when I purchase my mini 4 pro. I can't wait to get it this Saturday and will follow your instructions. Keep up the good work Russ and thank you!😊
Another great video Russ. 👊🏻 this is definitely a great way to remind everyone. Specially for beginners 👊🏻👊🏻
Great video Russ. I’ve shared this with many friends. Good information.
Russ, LOVE your channel!!! Always telling new drone pilots to check you out if they want quality info!! I heard you say contrast 13 times. I am in West Chicago, IL. Happy Flying!!
Thanks for the advice
Great info, thanks!!
Thanks. I always stress out. Very helpful.
You always have great content on your channel. Thanks for taking the time to help everyone through your experience.
I am from Albuquerque, NM, and I counted contrast 13 times in your video.
Great video with information I am not sure I had seen on any other "beginner" videos - much appreciated. Keep up the great work on the videos, I enjoy your delivery style. I counted 13 contrasts, and I have fun flying my Mini2 in Central WA.
Love your videos
Russ, awesome tips; thanks from ATL
Thanks, Russ, for another great video full of information for beginners. It was very helpful! I heard the word "contrast" 13 times. I'm having a great time flying my DGI Air 2s and watching your videos of tips and tricks has helped me tremendously. I always enjoy watching your UA-cam videos. I live in Evansville, IN and am looking forward to flying my Air 2s over the Ohio River this summer on our boat.
dude did you get my comment about new laws and regulations about drones ????????????????
@@bumperxx1 no , tell us
I appreciate your help and information on drones. I have a Mavic Pro 2 and flew it for the first time yesterday. Nerves were definitely on edge to say the least. I set all my control settings as per your videos. That helped calm my first flight jitters. I am from South Dakota but travel year round. Retired and in my 70's but very active. Thanks again for your great videos.
Russ, you and dronexfactor are the two best teachers.
Keep up the teaching videos.
Great tips. Thanks
Thanks! This is good! Even if just a refresher but new pilots I wish I would have watched a video like this before I started flying
Very informative Russ, thank you Sir
Thanks Russ. Also love that white ATV bike. That is one beautiful ride.
Thanks, great tips
Thanks, for the info. I’m a newbie and that one tip you provided in this video has decreased my anxiety as I get comfortable. I’m a subscriber and will continue to watch. My first duty assignment was Minot AFB when I joined the Air Force.. Happy Flying
I have learnt so much from this video and eager to apply my new knowledge and enhance my flying skills.
Great content Russ, I really appreciate the info I have no idea how many times you said Contrast, however I guess 15 times. Thanks for fueling my drone excitement! Corey from Wayne, PA
Very helpful video thank you.

Thanks for your videos. Really helped me when I was a beginner with my mini 2. Great tool for storm spotting confirmation.
Contrast 13 times and from central NC.
I heard the word Contrast, 13 times..and I live in Norborne, Mo. I really enjoy your videos and look forward to them...Safe flying!
Thank you very much for a valuable video!!
Follow modes on DJI drones. Always good to have a reminder on how those work.
Hey Russ, Happy Easter to you and yours!
My name is Jeremy Bodner and I am a new 107 pilot from Lexington Kentucky. This is the first season of the first year for the rest of my life! I am so excited!!! What a beautiful future life has presented!
In this video you used the word "contrast" 13 times. Your work at 51 DRONES is inspiring and truly has help guide me into and through some tremendous learning curves.
Thanks buddy,
Jeremy Bodner
Russ, thanks for another helpful tips. :) Greetings!! subscriber from Philippines.
thanks! it's a great video
Thanks for all your wisdom!! You've made my flying experience soo much easier. I always enjoy watching your videos. I counted 13 times on the contrast count. I'm in Evansville Indiana.
just started out i got myself a mini 2 been watching your videos and they have been a great help for me ...im based in UK
Hey Russ.... Been following your channel for almost two years now. Appreciate the pointer on how to help get the most life out of our DJI batteries. Will try to start doing that with my drones.
Cheers
Russ, I live in Corrales, New Mexico and I’m also saying 13 times for the contrast comment. Even though I have a year and a half of experience, I alway enjoy basic training because I always learn something helpful. Vince Lombardi used to tell the Packers at the first training session in the Spring, “Gentlemen, this is a football.” He believed and I concur, the basics are important. Keep up the good work.
Great content as always Russ, my wife is from Dickinson ND. Counted contrast 13 times. Eco power portable stations are the coolest. I live in Highlands Ranch Colorado and I bought the DjI Air 2S back a couple of months ago and am really enjoying flying it. Really enjoy your videos, they are very informative with great content.
Thanks Russ
Thanks Russ I enjoy all of your videos they are very informative, your said contrast 13 times in the video. I am a new drone pilot flying a DJI Mini 2 and live in Kingsport Tn.
Excellent Video and Excellent Information Russ. I Heard The Word Contrast 13 Times. I Live In Fountain Hills, Arizona. Thank You.
For a new & learning pilot like myself from Red Deer, Alberta, these videos are fantastic.
Keep up the awesome content and thanks for being a great resource.
I heard you say contrast 11 times in the video.
Thanks Russ!! Great video! I counted 13 times for the word “contrast”. Im from Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. I currently have an Air 2 and the Mavic 3 with the RC Pro. Im still trying to learn the remote but love the setup. I also finally got a landing pad, never had one and love not having grass and dirt flying around during takeoff and landings. Take care and fly safe! Mark
Great landing and take-off tips.
Thanks for the great tips . Had my mini 2 for 2 years now and get more confident every day . Never say you can’t learn some new every day . Ken from Sydney au
Precision landing is not based on visual information but on GPS positioning. The reason for hovering over the landing spot is to give time for the Drone to calculate it's position by using the avalable satelites in the area. The more satelites it finds , better define the landing position.
Nope. The final 33 feet of descent is determined by contrast detection. GPS only gets you up to that point, after that the sensors take over and match the contrast it captured at liftoff
Russ, Great video. I heard you say contrast 13 times. I have been into drones for a little over a year, and your channel has helped me improve so much in that time period. I got my Part 107 in 01/2021 for work. I am from Joliet, Illinois.
I'm very new to drones and always stressed while out flying, but it's becoming for comfortable as I fly more... Thanks Russ...
Russ, Thank you for the video. As a noob these type of short videos are very helpful. I heard contrast 13 times and live in Pelham, NH USA.
Russ, the hand catching tips are excellent, notability open palm on landing. I've been nipped twice by the blades reaching up with open fingers! We've learned a great deal from you on using drone photography for our channel. Long time subscribers, we love all the videos, keep up the great work! Have an amazing day! Tom & Suzanne
Great information. Thanks Russ! Allentown, PA
Hi From Holland love your channel and the tips I recently bought a DJI Mini 3 pro and learning all the time. Your tips and tricks are very helpful thank you for them.
Thanks good info john from uk
I heard you say “contrast “ 13 times.
I’m from Alabama and have been watching your videos for years and enjoyed watching this one twice to do a little counting.
Thanks for the time you put in making great content.
Long time pilot here, these are some good tips.. Love learning stuff everyday.
Counted 13 times out of the whole video and I'm in the uk 🇬🇧 I have found your videos really helpful keep up the good work
Thanks Russ, good tips and a well organized and produced video. Southern California is home, I counted you saying ‘contrast’ 13 times in the video.
Russ I enjoy all your videos and especially these tutorial type ones. In the video you used the word "contrast" 13 times. I have an Air 2 and Mini 2 and have found that using the landing pad and hovering for a short time really gets the landing spot on. I live in Ottawa, Ontario and visit Florida in the winter so hoping to get some flying up here soon.
Great video. I use my Delta2 for charging 👍
Thanks for this video Russ! Great tips! You said the word "contrast' 13 times.
I just found your channel yesterday with your video on airspace over private property (great video by the way) and now this one. I am currently studying for my part 107. I just subscribed.
Thanks, Russ, learned a couple of things today. I will add hover in place to my flight practices and checking the return to home point is something I didn't know you can do. There have been several times where there isn't a lot of spare room available on return and I frequently fly till I get the return to home low battery message. I counted contrast 13 times (a great way to get people to pay attention) I live in Cabin John Maryland and the leaves are coming back, almost time to start filming some town Reels. Thanks again I always look forward to your shows.
Thanks for the video. I expect my new Air 2S to be delivered tomorrow and can't wait to fly it. Like the others, I heard contrast 13 times and am from Dallas, TX.
Greetings from Atlanta GA. Great video thank you. 😊 I counted you saying contrast 13 times, not bad it's all about the contrast. Those power banks are sooooo sick! I really want one. That one of the many thing on my drone wish list. Thank you for this opportunity. Keep up the great content 👏
This is a great channel, I just found you and subscribed immediately. Retired 2 years ago, looking for a hobby/$$ maker. Got my first drone today, a Holy Stone 175D and I'm really looking forward to learning to fly. A topic like this is exactly what I needed, I picked up several bullet points in this video, and hope to view your entire library in the coming days. Thank you again for your outstanding work. BTW; I'm Ed from Modesto, CA. (Water, Wealth, Contentment, Health)
Heard you 13 times total... From Fort Worth here! Thanks for all the great tips!
