Unlike most people teaching on UA-cam, you get straight to the point. You are concise, succinct and never wordy. You give people who're trying to learn something, exactly what they need to know. Thanks for all your vids and all that you do.
To ALL DJI customers: DO NOT buy the DJI SELECT , it does not cover any accessories for the Mavic 2 Pro or Zoom. This is a big scam from DJI I bought from DJI STORE a Mavic 2 hard case, but the 20% discount as a SELECT member was not applied, called customer service and they said these discounts are for everything else but not for the Mavic 2..... What a big scam this is,....
As a relatively new drone flyer, I found this video the best I have ever seen. You obviously know what you are doing. I for one, want to thank you for your hard work for putting this together.
This is absolutely THE BEST tutorial, not only on the subject, but on anything. Instead of the usual rambling, self-important, BS this guy presents the material in a good training sequence with enough detail to be useful to beginner and intermediate operator alike. I only wish there were more folks like him offering real expertise on their subject of interest.
This video is very well made and extremely helpful. I ordered a refurbished Phantom 4 from the DJI store, and I've been impatiently waiting for it to arrive. I've been pouring over videos to research the machine in advance. When I got the drone today, I felt like I operated it as if I'd owned it for a long time, thanks in large part to your video. Thanks very much for making it.
I just acquired a used phantom 4 and I read the owners manual which I downloaded. A lot of good information but I was looking for someone to pull all of that info together into a flowing cohesive approach to preparing, understanding, and presenting the basic information. You have done all of that and more. I so appreciate your honest attention to detail and appreciate all of the hard work behind the scenes to bring this video to us. Thank you very much!!
Just received my Phantom 4 Pro this afternoon...I am so glad I found this video...What an awesome tutorial for us first time owner/flyers...Thanks beyond words!...stay awesome!
I just bought a phantom 4 pro and I swear to God this video has helped me tremendously. Great job i've learned so much from this video. This is has given me way more confidence to fly my drone. And I'm really enjoying it. Thank you again
I'm about to buy my first drone and I'm debating between the dji phantom 4 pro or 4 pro plus. As someone who has a bit of experience now, what do you recommend?

One of, if not THE best "how to" I have seen! The presentation style (unlike most) has NO annoying qualities I can detect!!!!!!!!!! Thanks a lot for posting!!
I have always thought ISO was an acronym. When you said that in the video I paused it and did some research. After 35 years I stand corrected. Thanks for setting me straight on that. I plan to win some money with that little nugget of information.
I bought a DJI Phantom 4 Pro V2 and this video helped me to learn everything about drone before the first flight. This guy is great. Greetings from Serbia
Tony, because of this video, I pulled the trigger on getting a P4, and knew pretty much EVERYTHING I needed to set it up and get flying relatively quickly. Thanks for such a well thought out and conveyed overview. Best one I've seen on the P4's ever. I know this vid is old, but keep it up. I thoroughly enjoy, and learn from your drone vids...
Holy Smoke, this guy knows his stuff and he is extremely easy to follow / understand. I am by no means a Pro, but I know a fair amount about photography and was wanting some insight to the DJI phantom 4 pro and I am so glad I found this video. Great Job!!
Nice work! I have been an instructor a few times in my past and I know how hard this can be and as a first time drone owner, this video was a huge help in navigating the tools in the P4P especially the camera function. Thanks
Excellent tutorial. I'm an advanced amateur photographer and fully appreciate the heavy emphasis on the photographic settings that Tony provides, in addition to the how to initialize and fly procedures.
Long, but absolutely required viewing for familiarizing yourself with the use, capabilities and features of the DJI Phantom 4 model drones. Tony gives you detailed information and helps you to prevent making mistakes regarding things you may not have known. (Ex: The 4 Pro uses different filters than the 4). If you buy either product, when you open the box, you'll be miles ahead for having watched this video. Thanks Tony for a thorough and professional presentation! I'm subscribing!!
Im proud to say I watched all the way to the very end. Very informative video! I just picked up a Phantom 4 pro for $700. Learned so much from your video. Thank you!
What a fantastic instructional video. I'm a kinetic learner so along with watching this video several times i will also be working with the aircraft at the same time. You sir a credit to the profession and after spending over 2K on my first drone (with Accessories) i can assure you i will be thanking you more than once as i venture into this. if there is a charity that you like and contribute too, let me know and i will send something there way.
The way that u told this interview about this drone was just like if u invented the phantom 4. The way that u told the stores how it all works is just amazing that even the factory can't duplicate it...showing and also telling us all the details on your view and how is the best way to make it work like it should your also very honest is the key to this video, because of this I ordered the new phantom 4 pro plus bundle and also the osmo to, I am also ordering your book to. Just because your very details into my world and today's truth about how to make it all come together, again bravo and u should be paid in full for this insight on the truth about the real world use and also your real point of view.... again bravo and thank you for the real world use of this phantom 4. Pro and cons of this drone John Houston Tx
This is probably the best produced and well thought out video for learning and using the p4p and p4a that I have seen......and second place isn't even close........Thanks for putting this together and excellent job.......I am now subscribed to your channel and will purchase accessories through your links.
You explain every thing so good a kid can understand,thank you very much I just bought p4p I am kind of learning process I watched many tutorials about p4p settings and all but really I like yours the best.
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!! you have help me be a lot less afraid of flying.... i can now explore my drone with a much clearer understanding with confidence... I am going to look for more of your tutorials and hopefully I can find a sequel to this one which will help even more. I was considering selling my drone as I was very intimidated by all of the features and buttons not wanting to screw it or my pleasurable experience flying up... thank you once again....
Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! You did something that most other instructional videos don’t: you explained everything in all the menus, right down to the last setting. That is really great because even though I may not use all the features, when I do need to shoot in an odd situation I’ll know whether the camera will actually perform the function or not. Then I’ll know whether to search for the setting or not. I hope that makes sense. Well done!
Thank you sir. I upgraded from a Phantom 2+ to the Phantom 4 Pro. Wow I feel like a newbie, But thanks to your video's I am getting up to speed. Thanks for your awesome efforts.
Update: Registration Number now must be posted outside and visible on the aircraft. Placing it in the battery compartment is no longer acceptable. I truly enjoy your videos :)
There is a significant problem with AEB, in that the P4P currently writes the exact same exposure values to the Metadata, which makes processing difficult in HDR software. This is especially a problem with Photomatix batch processing.
Yes ISO does change the amount of light but the lower setting for day shooting will bring in low or less noice or a dirty look higher setting is more noice.
Wow what a great video, your a natural Tony. We're lucky to have people like you. Picked up your book since I'm a newbie to Drone and video. Look forward to more of the same.
I almost freaked out when I hear the beeping. I thought someone is controlling my air conditioner and I am the only person in the room at 2 a.m. Nice video as always.
Thanks for an excellent video tutorial. I have upgraded from the P3A to the Mavic Pro Platinum and I find a lot of your knowledge is very helpful. Ian Foster.
My 1st flight was yesterday! 10 minutes in and I raised it to 30 feet and it just stopped flashing and running. The 30 ft drop to a sidewalk doesn't make a pretty sight and pieces scattering in all directions while the blades stay attached. The battery was still flashing. We will see what DJI does on Monday when they open.
Tony, I have just purchased a Phantom 4 Pro+ and have been using your video to teach myself. I followed your steps one by one and there seems to be no "Focus Peaking" (40:32 on the video) on the menu. I have also installed the latest firmware update. I understand it doesn't exist for the Android version.
Tony I wanted to thank you. I can't afford the new DJI drones for the business I want to get started so I bought a couple pre owned zero hour P4P pro v2 drones. there was a video where you were a little salty about photography is so easy for everyone now and people haven't paid their dues etc... as a musician I can relate with all of the AI music being generated now. I can tell you that even with the automated settings in my new cell, s23 ultra, and the drones or videos that made me want to dig deeper and understand what is going on. Real photography/ videography it's hard. I spent an hour trying to get a clear picture of a hummingbird so it's not blurry today, mostly failed tried all the different settings... 😂
im still using a p4pro plus after all this time. ive seen no reason to upgrade as yet. it just keeps on going. i found ur tutorial helpful if not straight forward. thanks for your time.
This a fantastic video, as are your books. In this video at time 24:18 I believe you said you have a separate video on intelligent flight modes. Where is the link to that video? Many thanks.
I like your calm, cool, thourough, (dare I say Marine Corps snipper instructor) conversational and educational teaching style. I am learning and enjoying, thank you, Jon
I like this guys he actually say everything slowly but not to slow and hes like i cant describe but i love this vid really really rrreeeeeaaaaalllllyyyy helpful thx and piece😎😎😎😁😁😁
I agree with John Kironde you are awesome.. I have your digital photography books(chapter 4) lol... and have been following you for some time. always used my Nikon D700, but just purchased a phantom 4 pro..... thanks to you learning to use it is PAINLESS!! Like you said most of flying then drone is about photography! thanks!!
Hi Tony - By far one of the best Phantom 4 Pro reviews I have watched on UA-cam (and I have watched many). I'm only 7 minutes into it. However I wished you had reviewed the Pro Plus so that you would go over the function of it.
You did a great video vary informative I just purchsed a Phantom 4 pro first drone. I was impressed with watching the you tube video's on it. I am a pilot so i have a background in the air. You did a great job of explaining about it. Thank you. I like to buy your book. I have a lot of learning on this. Thanks again for the great video.
Very informative thank you for making this video. I had no idea of the complete control one has with the Phantom 4 Pro, it truly is a creative high-quality tool. The only thing I'd disagree with is that I've yet to see passable footage from the Mavic Pro for professional use.
great videos thanks!!! @32:23 & @56:54 the L series lens makes it's cameo in a drone review, why?? i.e. if your reviewing the 5d III pretty sure you won't have a P4P as a prop on the table next to the 5d..sorry I know it's nit picking..wait i watched again it the lens a coffee mug?
Tony you hardly speak about the 4. I dont have the pro so my screen isnt like yours. I havent gone through all the setting yet on my 4 but maybe a video on just the 4. The pro wasnt out when i bought my 4. Thanks. An 1:30 min and im confused.
Hey Tony, at 53:14 in your video you are able to change your settings under EXP profile to "gentle".. I only have "normal" as an option, "gentle" & "sport" are missing. I'm using the latest firmware & the latest app available on the 2nd gen 12.9" iPad Pro 2.. Those options are missing for my P4P. Any idea how to fix that?
Hey Tony, first off, amazing video! I love all you work and follow you regularly. However, Class D airspace is not common as is Class G airspace and requires authorization prior to flight or a waiver. Also, your registration number must be visible, putting it inside the battery compartments is not within compliance. Once again. great work!
The drone flies back (in lost comms situation) by going up to 30m (90ft)...What's the initial height based on that the 90 ft is calculated ? The start (home or ground level) point altitude, or, sea level... What ?
At one point you demonstrate how a faster shutter speed yields a sharper video when the P4P is moving, but in your later ND filter segment you say something like "ND filters let me use the slower shutter speeds like 30fps, which I prefer." Please clarify. Also, do you cover prop shadows in any of your videos? 3D Solo users employ ND filters to lower the GoPro's shutter speed specifically to eliminate visible artifacts from the props. But it stands to reason that a lower shutter speed will introduce motion blur when doing camera moves. And thank you for a wonderful video. I agree with the many positive comments here!
knowing your RC background I'm kinda surprised you didn't think of "port wine" coloring. We also used to put stripes on the underside of wings so that they formed an arrow pointing to the nose. In the case of the drone I think that would be too hard to see. I know the drone has lights but those clearly are not easily able to be seen. so, paint the landing gear and outer 1/3(?) of underside the "port wine" configuration and you should be able to easily know its orientation.
I hear you, clearly there is no place for such markings, that wasn't the statement. I don't think anyone confuses a drone with a RC aircraft which are used extensively used for stunts and precision flying.
hI Tony IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS DRONE PHANTOME 4 PRO VS PHANTOM 4 PRO PLUS , I KNOW THE PHANTOM 4 PRO PLUS COMES WITH A AN INBUILT SCREEN IN THE CONTROLLER, SPECIFIC TO THE DRONE 4 PRO N 4PRO PLUS IS THERE A DIFFERENCE

Great job Tony! I have purchased your's and Chelsea's videos in the past and have found them always to be very thorough and professional. Kudos.....
I watched your video 3 times. Now i am like expert of this drone. Thank you so much
You explain every thing so good a kid can understand,thank you very much I just bought p4p I am kind of learning process I watched many tutorials about p4p settings and all but really I like yours the best.

Update: Registration Number now must be posted outside and visible on the aircraft. Placing it in the battery compartment is no longer acceptable. I truly enjoy your videos :)
Part way through video and subscribed. Your thoroughness is commendable! Thank you.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Best and most comprehensive review (and Instructional video) on these drones I have seen.
Thanks for taking the time!
There is a significant problem with AEB, in that the P4P currently writes the exact same exposure values to the Metadata, which makes processing difficult in HDR software. This is especially a problem with Photomatix batch processing.
Best and most complete tutorial I've seen. Very nice job.
Without you I do not know where I would be with this new machine. Thanks so much.
You're welcome!
The best video instruction I have ever seen on You Tube! Great work
This video is perfectly accurate and right to the point. Awesome job Tony!
Yes ISO does change the amount of light but the lower setting for day shooting will bring in low or less noice or a dirty look higher setting is more noice.
Wow what a great video, your a natural Tony. We're lucky to have people like you. Picked up your book since I'm a newbie to Drone and video. Look forward to more of the same.
My new favorite channel on UA-cam- excellent job -- thanks!!!
Thank you for explaining things so therally . You remind of mr rogers and thats a compliment.
"Sorry, came in a little hot there." Sooo informative, but so entertaining. Thanks!
Great vid as usual Tony. I got the P4Pro and love it so far. Love your thoroughness. Thanks.
I almost freaked out when I hear the beeping. I thought someone is controlling my air conditioner and I am the only person in the room at 2 a.m.
Nice video as always.
Thanks for an excellent video tutorial. I have upgraded from the P3A to the Mavic Pro Platinum and I find a lot of your knowledge is very helpful. Ian Foster.
Great video Tony I'm a rank beginner. AT 49 minutes into video, 3 ft to 1m, not 3m to 1ft . You have a great way of explaining things. thankyou.
As always, you just keep taking me to school. I learn something new everyday. Your channel is on fleek bro.
My 1st flight was yesterday! 10 minutes in and I raised it to 30 feet and it just stopped flashing and running. The 30 ft drop to a sidewalk doesn't make a pretty sight and pieces scattering in all directions while the blades stay attached. The battery was still flashing. We will see what DJI does on Monday when they open.
EXCELLENT (as usual.) Clear with just enough repetition to help remember stuff. Thanks for the great lesson!
Tony, I have just purchased a Phantom 4 Pro+ and have been using your video to teach myself. I followed your steps one by one and there seems to be no "Focus Peaking" (40:32 on the video) on the menu. I have also installed the latest firmware update. I understand it doesn't exist for the Android version.
my love for this lagend phantom 4 drone.... you are my best ever
Tony I wanted to thank you. I can't afford the new DJI drones for the business I want to get started so I bought a couple pre owned zero hour P4P pro v2 drones. there was a video where you were a little salty about photography is so easy for everyone now and people haven't paid their dues etc... as a musician I can relate with all of the AI music being generated now. I can tell you that even with the automated settings in my new cell, s23 ultra, and the drones or videos that made me want to dig deeper and understand what is going on. Real photography/ videography it's hard. I spent an hour trying to get a clear picture of a hummingbird so it's not blurry today, mostly failed tried all the different settings... 😂
Sir, what a great video. Watched it start to finish, and I'm going to be buying your book! Very much appreciated.
im still using a p4pro plus after all this time. ive seen no reason to upgrade as yet. it just keeps on going. i found ur tutorial helpful if not straight forward. thanks for your time.
I hope ya get a billion views for this video...its worth it!
Me too, a billion views would be sweet.
Super.....You great..😎amazing.....Hats off...🙌
This a fantastic video, as are your books. In this video at time 24:18 I believe you said you have a separate video on intelligent flight modes. Where is the link to that video? Many thanks.
Wow, I was just given a Phantom 4 and was very intimidated by it. This helped answer a lot of questions, thanks!
I like your calm, cool, thourough, (dare I say Marine Corps snipper instructor) conversational and educational teaching style. I am learning and enjoying, thank you, Jon
I like this guys he actually say everything slowly but not to slow and hes like i cant describe but i love this vid really really rrreeeeeaaaaalllllyyyy helpful thx and piece😎😎😎😁😁😁

Fabulous video. So well presented with great info and excellent editing.
May God bless you Tony. Keep on spreading the knowledge
Hi Tony - By far one of the best Phantom 4 Pro reviews I have watched on UA-cam (and I have watched many). I'm only 7 minutes into it. However I wished you had reviewed the Pro Plus so that you would go over the function of it.
As I understand it, the P4P and the P4P Plus are exactly the same except for the integrated screen on the plus's remote.
Awesome, mine ships on Tuesday! Thanks for this!
Great video every Phantom 4 owner should watch. Thanks
Really well explained, well done Tony. Keep you the good work you put in these videos!
You did a great video vary informative I just purchsed a Phantom 4 pro first drone. I was impressed with watching the you tube video's on it. I am a pilot so i have a background in the air. You did a great job of explaining about it. Thank you. I like to buy your book. I have a lot of learning on this. Thanks again for the great video.
This is a top Guide I used to help a beginner.. Nice job Tony ;)
Very informative thank you for making this video. I had no idea of the complete control one has with the Phantom 4 Pro, it truly is a creative high-quality tool. The only thing I'd disagree with is that I've yet to see passable footage from the Mavic Pro for professional use.
great videos thanks!!!
@32:23 & @56:54 the L series lens makes it's cameo in a drone review, why??
i.e. if your reviewing the 5d III pretty sure you won't have a P4P as a prop on the table next to the 5d..sorry I know it's nit picking..wait i watched again it the lens a coffee mug?
+Unicorn Cookies678 it's a mug. I drink tea during these because my throat gets sore from talking for so long.
thank you tony! i just got my phantom 4 pro and this tutorial helps a lot... coffee is on me!!
Thanks! Glad to help!
Tony you hardly speak about the 4. I dont have the pro so my screen isnt like yours. I havent gone through all the setting yet on my 4 but maybe a video on just the 4. The pro wasnt out when i bought my 4. Thanks. An 1:30 min and im confused.
I was thinking that I will just wacht 10min but it was an awesome vid I Watched the whole vid. Thanks a lot!
Been a sub for some time, Excellent detailed video. The drone company should hire you for the basic training video.
Absolutely brilliant... thanks so much... just bookmark this video for reference and reminders!
Just wanted to add a correction the side obstacle detection also works while in tripod mode too.
Ah, thanks for that!
Pete Larson
Thanks for your videos I learned and continue learning, I feel more confident flying my drone.
Hey Tony, at 53:14 in your video you are able to change your settings under EXP profile to "gentle".. I only have "normal" as an option, "gentle" & "sport" are missing. I'm using the latest firmware & the latest app available on the 2nd gen 12.9" iPad Pro 2.. Those options are missing for my P4P. Any idea how to fix that?
The side obstacle detection sensors also work when you're in Tripod mode, not just in beginner mode, what would be the point?
Does the obstacle work on follow me mode for the phantom 4 pro plus? I'm about to buy it
Hey Tony, first off, amazing video! I love all you work and follow you regularly. However, Class D airspace is not common as is Class G airspace and requires authorization prior to flight or a waiver. Also, your registration number must be visible, putting it inside the battery compartments is not within compliance. Once again. great work!
Just got my P4. Can't wait to learn and practice. Starting right here, right.... NOW! :)
Super great work don’t stop.
Amazing video - best on UA-cam
Thanks Tony I picked up a couple of good hints I never knew about!
Just WOW!!! The best video for the new P4P like me! Thank you for this great informative video
The drone flies back (in lost comms situation) by going up to 30m (90ft)...What's the initial height based on that the 90 ft is calculated ? The start (home or ground level) point altitude, or, sea level... What ?
This is so good. Thank you. Brilliant work.
What a fantastic and informative video! Well done!
At one point you demonstrate how a faster shutter speed yields a sharper video when the P4P is moving, but in your later ND filter segment you say something like "ND filters let me use the slower shutter speeds like 30fps, which I prefer." Please clarify.
Also, do you cover prop shadows in any of your videos? 3D Solo users employ ND filters to lower the GoPro's shutter speed specifically to eliminate visible artifacts from the props. But it stands to reason that a lower shutter speed will introduce motion blur when doing camera moves.
And thank you for a wonderful video. I agree with the many positive comments here!
Great video. Very informative as i got my phantom 4 yesterday. Thank's.
thanks a lot Tony. I was able to fly my Phantom 4 using your help. end to end helpful lesson
knowing your RC background I'm kinda surprised you didn't think of "port wine" coloring. We also used to put stripes on the underside of wings so that they formed an arrow pointing to the nose. In the case of the drone I think that would be too hard to see. I know the drone has lights but those clearly are not easily able to be seen. so, paint the landing gear and outer 1/3(?) of underside the "port wine" configuration and you should be able to easily know its orientation.
I hear you, clearly there is no place for such markings, that wasn't the statement. I don't think anyone confuses a drone with a RC aircraft which are used extensively used for stunts and precision flying.
Can you please share the link to the template that you mentioned in the video? It's not in the description. Thank you.
hI Tony IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS DRONE PHANTOME 4 PRO VS PHANTOM 4 PRO PLUS , I KNOW THE PHANTOM 4 PRO PLUS COMES WITH A AN INBUILT SCREEN IN THE CONTROLLER, SPECIFIC TO THE DRONE 4 PRO N 4PRO PLUS IS THERE A DIFFERENCE
Thanks
Don't you have to calibrate before you take off?
