Trying to go in reverse in a confined area about three feet off the ground to film a snowman we made. Forgot the mavic is a lot more touchy than my phantom 4, not to mention the fact that my eyes were glued to my monitor.🙄Lesson learned until the next brain fart. LOL Happy Holliday's Ken! 🎄

    Thank, Ken, I live around Nashville and I'm very new to drones and photography. I've recently bought a Mavic Pro Platinum. And I'm so impressed with this technology. I''ve never controlled anything like this bedside my old toy quad copter. It's very easy to control. I would like to get into commercial flying and photography but I have a lot of flying and editing skills to improve on. Thanks for your videos.
    they have been the most helpful on what to do and not to do. Plus, I'm an a gamer and pinching is very new to me. But i think i can do it!! Keep up the good work my man!!!

I intend to start my own business, and really got some great ideas from your video. My wife has fallen in love with the cute little drone, she's a retired speech pathologist and is convinced that it talks. I'M A PINCHER, NOT A THUMBER !! (Thanks to you.) I have been flying for almost a year, for personal pleasure, and for my youtube channel THREE FINGERS FOLLY. I made my first profit 4 days ago, for trading some aerial photos of the R V park, I stayed in, for 2 nights stay. Your awesome Ken, I have learned a lot from your videos. Thanks, keep up the great work.

I've had several friends ask me to do some aerial work for them and I feel bad telling them I can't (I also know I'm missing out on some really great opportunities)
    Anyways, thanks again for such a great video, I always look forward to your videos and I have learned so much from them (and been entertained by them too) Happy New Year Ken!
