Hey Mattheww Please look on my comment and answer on this. Is that You or that is spam ? I wrote on telegram and I’m not sure at that is You behind that account…
When learning to fly straight I would fly parking lots and use the painted lines to follow just looking at the screen. Fly forward,backwards and side to side. It works good for muscle memory!
As a pure novice I am learning so much from your content and appreciate the way that you deliver it in an easily understood fashion. Much appreciated 👍
I absolutely agree with you. As a novice for this new pastime of mine to get me out and about and thoroughly enjoy it, this was the (now only) channel I needed to go to for anything for a newbie drone related lessons that are easily understood. At 74 years old, that means a lot to me personally and this chap makes it a joy to listen and learn - and never be bored like on some channels.
Wow! I have to say, Matthew, that you do the absolute best videos. Your video editing, instruction, pacing is so good! You don’t wander off-topic and you share crucial tips and insights, including all the settings. This video, for example, has a large image of the controller on the right, perfectly mimicking what you are explaining on the left. Perfect! I guess you did a screen record, but how you kept the video of the controller perfectly still was stupendous! It allows the viewer to actually see what you are doing on the controller settings. Having the larger close-up view was perfect, compared to other UA-camrs screen records. You deserve a million subscribers.😊
Hi, Matthew. A quick note of thanks for all you do to help us "newbies" learn proper Drone procedure, protocol and practices. Your videos are well done, accurate and easy to follow. Please keep them coming.
Great video. Exposure is always tricky. Having a fixed exposure where the light is constantly changing is not a good look. Some of your footage will be under exposed and some will be over exposed. Personally, I think auto exposure is the best option in these circumstances.
Thankyou so much Matthew, I love your teaching technique, no lecture drivel just dive straight in! I will be watching your clips more than once, I am so enjoying the learning process thanks to your help.
Excellent tips. Very helpful. I wish I had watched this video before I crashed my drone into a tree. All your videos are wonderful. Thanks for helping us newbie drone operators. Thanks Matthew!
@@TheDroneCreative I live in the USA. Thankfully I purchased the DJI insurance, and was able to get a replacement from DJI for a reasonable fee. I strongly recommend the DJI insurance. My poor drone after my crash had a broken arm.
Solid recommendations. Coming up on one yr with the M3P. One thing I am trying to master now, while using all of these recommendations, is to fly inside a canopy going down a slope while maintaining the same smooth low altitude perspective, it's very tricky. An altitude cruise feature would be a great software update
Thanks so much Matt, I’m watch heaps of these videos as I’m a new pilot. I’m sure you’ve saved me a lot of time and headaches… and you’ll probably save me a drone or two in time!
Excellent, thank you once again Mattheww. More Compass tips - yay! Flying straight is actually quite difficult as a beginner, so your advice on practicing this and gaining muscle memory is very welcomed, thank you.
Great video, Thanks for the tip that it always starts out in Normal mode even when set to Cine. That explains a lot of the issues I was having. My old eyes never noticed that before!
Even when I KNOW all these tips, will I remember each one when flying in tight spaces? This is where it's Super good to review and practice. Nice presentation, too.
your reviews are very handy and well done, one suggestion for DJI ...a lot of people stay in restricted or no fly zones. please ask for 5m hight restriction in these areas so we could set up, test and learn ..
Excellent, as always. You’re a great teacher and I’m really grateful you take the time to make these videos-and that you’re flying the Mini 3 Pro. Watching your videos is always time well spent.
Hey 👋, Matthew I'm a air 2 pilot of 4 years, and had many drones, but now I have the mini 3 pro, Wow what a machine :). I would like to thank you, your delivery of info is great, you remind me of my important considerations one should have. I've learnt lots from you including have an obstacle avoidance turned off but screen warnings turned on brilliant thanks for highlighting keep up the good work more mini three pro tips needed I'm biased 😆 happy New Year Matthew. 🎉
My first ever drone (dji mini 3 pro) arrived yesterday. Your videos have been essential in my understanding and decision to make the purchase. Thanks 🤟🤟🤟🤜🤛
I am a newbie in this field of flying. I have the DJI PRO 4 Mini and so far I have logged in only a mere 1:35 min of air time. Mostly just trying to figure out what I can do with this. Your videos are great!! Thank you for making them so people like us can have somewhere to get our foundation built and get our confidence level high enough to be a pro flyer. Hopefully, I could make a cinematic movie! Need help though!!!
That was a very informative video. I've flown my mini 3 pro for about 6 months/ I will definitely use most of the settings you suggested. Thanks again for the helpful tips.
Thank you so much for those tips! My wife uses her iPhone when walking to get video and even the iPhone 14 pro max doesn't remove all the walking motion. Flying the mini 3 with obstacle avoidance off did the trick. I felt a bit foolish on that one lol but worry about hitting things telling me I should be walking closer to the drone and watching the drone, not the controller screen! Thank you for all your great tips videos
Yeah - this is a great point - thanks for sharing. The only niggle is it will still drift up and down with obstacle avoidance set to bypass and sideways movement turned off. So if you fly close to a branch it will duck and dive. This isn't a huge issue, but if you want a perfectly straight tracking shot for example it's just something to be aware off. Thanks for sharing - really appreciate it!
Hi Matthew, I had never noticed it defaults to Normal mode when you turn it on and does not respect the button position! Thanks for that! One thing I do whenever I can is follow the drone to make sure the path is clear. Of course, if it is over water or something I can't follow it, that does not help. With the Mavic Mini, I used to use the Litchi app only for the VR goggles mode. I have one of those cheap goggles you slide your phone into and that made flying in tight spaces way safer and much more fun. I guess the Avata or FPV drones do this but it would be nice if the DJI goggles were not so pricy to use it in such situations. I loved flying with the VR goggles.
The button position is always worth checking the first time you turn the drone on. I have heard of others doing the VR mode too for tight space flying. I believe the dronemask is good for this but haven't tried it myself!
Excellent video 👍 As for flying straight… wouldn’t it be great if you could lock the controls so to only go forward/backwards… or maybe customize the buttons for forward & backwards so that you couldn’t accidentally drift left or right? I wish this was possible but I don’t think it is at present. What do you think? Cheers, Steve.
THE BEST VIDEO i HAVE EVER SEEN THAT EXPLAINS THE TIPS FOR TIGHT SPACES!i want to know if i fly indoors(to a big house)i follow the same tips?Its safe to fly in houses or reception halls ?Have you any video like that?thakns
@13:40 Super noob question. How much is the mic filtering out the drone noise? I haven't touched a drone in years and they were super noisy but that one seems very quiet by comparison.
1:56.... WHAT! I had not clocked this, I keep the controller in Cine all the time and had not realised I was actually in Normal. MANY THANKS for pointing this out.
Superhelpful hints for beginners. I lost my DJI Spark years ago when batteries got crucial in the woods and the aircraft did what it was supposed to do, it simply tried to return to the homepoint, unfortunately at RTH height. As the result it made upflight into the branches, the props were destroyed and also the batterie when it crashed on the ground.
Absolutely! When you first start trying to fly straight I have found that it is super easy to wander off course. By practicing flying straight over time you learn exactly how to hold the joystick in position to fly straight without wandering. Basically practicing the move to get better at it. Hope that helps!
Cracking video with some really useful tips. The Obstacle Avoidance sensors can't be turned off. Setting OA to Off in the menu only disables intervention. All the OA sensors remain active, feeding info to the drone's electronic brain. This is why the radar thingumajob still works with OA set to "Off". The real reason the drone rises as the ground rises with OA "Off" is because of how the infrared positioning/landing sensors function. The Mini 2 does the exact same thing.

I have a question why isn't the Optical avoidance sensor doesn't work at night time.. my mavic pro work well at night
Top notch information in this video!
Another excellent set of tips. Thanks. Knew about the downward detection always on since the drone wont let me grab it when hovering.
Really enjoyed that good tips
Thanks, Matthew. Handy tips. Keep up the excellent work with the videos.
Excellent, thank you for this very helpful video
Cheers so much M, great for their other drones also 👍
wow, lots of detail and great tips - thank you.
