    Great tutorial. I’ve had my Mavic Pro for almost a year and never knew what everything on the controller was for. Heck I didn’t realize that it even had a zoom.

    New to having a Mavic Pro and so a bit daunted by the controller screen, my last drone the Mavic Air didn't have that. So I was really nervous about being overwhelmed by all the information, but you explained it really well and have really put my mind at ease. Thank you for making this video, it's helped me so much

  • @theyrehere...ghostsufoscro3442

    I bought the Platinum this week and I'm still researching, you're videos are very informative. Cheers mate.

    Nicely done! I just recently purchased a Mavic 2 Zoom so I am soaking up any bit of information I come across. Great explanation of the controller functions. As a visual learner it really helps having your clear un-confusing teaching method. Thank you!

    I just bought one of these Platinum Pro as my first drone. I know these aren’t made anymore but this was an inexpensive start. Everything works great. I use it to take photos and videos of my construction sites I manage. Great tool! Very helpful video, thank you!

Now I am confident to fly my mavic pro platinum for the first time. Will upload my first fly on my channel very soon, Thanks

    I bought a DJI Mavic Pro Platinum (£1200 around $1500) last year as a treat for some friends in Cyprus and 6 weeks after Waiting for it to be delivered all the hassle of getting it through customs after sending it to North Cyprus (who take longer to deal with things) etc etc. So the guys waited weeks nearly 2 months for their drone. The day it arrived l was here in Cyprus. We all went to the beach and we were all very excited filming with it. We were on the deck sunbathing. When the drone returned to us it just flipped and landed in the sea for no apparent reason! We got it out after about 2 seconds, dried it in rice, but it didn't work! When I phoned DJI long distance, they said they would repair it free for us so I was relieved. I spent more money about €50, sending it back (which meant travelling through the border, again thru customs, to the South of the Island, I don't drive so taxi costs. Thus was to use a Post Office with tracking so l could track the Mavic Pro.)
    Then strangely DJI wouldn't confirm that they received it 4 weeks later (even though tracking showed it arrived) until I could find all my receipts and evidence my end which I had temporarily lost. This took another week and a half, with more long distance phone calls, to different people in their office as no record was kept of my long distance phone calls. I've lost count of the many calls l made. It was a total nightmare. Finally, they decided they were not going to fix it free after all and gave no real reason for this change of heart. They then quoted €890 to repair it which seems steep when you consider they replace a chip or something minor - l could probably do it myself if you could buy electronics gear here (North Cyprus) which you cannot! I just asked them to return it. I cannot explain why they didn't wish to help - I wasn't angry with them on the phone I was polite all the way - so I am at a loss about this. In commercials and CZcams you see the machine flying over water there is no warning that it is NOT even semi-waterproof or splashproof. I explained to Amazon where I bought it who decided they would sort it for me saying if they couldn't get redress from DJI they would pay me. I said l was happy to have half the costs and expenses. I waited and waited for my refund to no avail. Out of the blue, Amazon too decided they weren't going to pay me anything not even a postage stamp! So I am £1500 plus down and all my time and effort (and expenses) and nothing to show for it. Not to mention all the time and trouble travelling to South Cyprus to send it back via tracked mail long distance phone calls etc etc. The worst was watching my two young friends ' unhappy faces. The real reason for this plea is I wanted to asked anyone PLEASE - what do I do with all the batteries and stuff? Can I use them on a different drone (not DJI as I am still sore!) There has to be a clone out there where I can use the batteries, surely China has copied it (improved it!) it just seems so much waste. I thought the 21st C was a sustainable one, it seems not as far as DJI are concerned!!!

    Nice tutorial! My question is: Are you able to access and modify controller settings without having the drone powered on? For instance, to modify stick sensitivity and wheel sensitivity (among other advanced settings), which you don't want to do while your drone is hovering or waiting and draining its battery, can you enter controller settings and do so, and how do you do that? Thanks!

I've been watching your noobie videos and I have one suggestion: Could you talk a little slower? A great video...I found myself rewatching sections over just because I couldn't get it the first time, LOL. Really enjoying your videos! Thanks!

    Would have been cool for you to go through the emergency controller stick movements. Any idea on the mavic 2 why the rc signal strength is sometimes weaker than video and drops randomly (not a lot). It will drop momentarily for a quick second then come back every other flight
